Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
The amounts of change are the same, but the original amounts are different. The ratio for the percent increase from 50 to 70 is 20/50, or 40%. The ratio for the percent decrease from 70 to 50 is 20/70, or about 29%.
Answer:
rrrrrrr
Step-by-step explanation:
Small number =X
mid number = 3X-4
large number = 3x
X+3X-4+3X=24
7X-4=24
7X-4+4=24+4
7X=28
X=28/7
X=4
S=4
M=3(4) -4=12-4=8
L=3(4)=12
The numbers are 4,8 and 12
(8x+3)(x-2)
Explanation
8x^2-13x-6
X(8x+3)-2(8x+3) factor buck greatest common factor
(8x+3)(x-2)
Lets say, for ease, that the vat can hold a total of 70 gallons (or whatever you would like to use.) Use whatever number you want, I just picked this because it gives us a lot of clean numbers.
Now, if the inlet can fill it in 7 hours, that means that it is adding 10 gallons per hour. (70 gal/7 hours = 10 gal/hr)
For the outlet, use the same process, and you find that it drains the vat at 7 gallons per hour.
So, if you subtract the outlet from the inlet, you get 10 - 7 = 3 gallons per hour added.
Now just divide the size of the vat by that number, and you find your answer.
70 gallons / 3 gallons per hour = 23 1/3 hours.
