It takes 20 minutes to fill a wading pool. The pool has developed a leak through which it will empty in 30 minutes.

1 answer:

4 0

In t minutes, t/20 of the pool is filled and t/30 of it is emptied.

t/20 - t/30 = 1
multiply both sides by LCM 60.

3t - 2t = 60
t = 60

The pool is filled in 60 minutes.

Using sine rule :

 $\dfrac{a}{sin A} = \dfrac{b}{sin B}$

 $\dfrac{14}{sin(63)} = \dfrac{b}{sin(50)}$

 $bsin(63) = 14sin(50)$

 $b = \dfrac{14sin(50)}{sin(63) }$

 $b = 12.04 \ mi \text{(nearest hundredth)}$
