Answer: With 11 pipes, you need 31.82 minutes to fill the tank.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define R as the rate at which one single pipe can fill a tank.

We know that 7 of them can fill a tank in 50 minutes, then we have the equation:

7*R*50min = 1 tank

Whit this equation, we can find the value of R:

R = 1 tank/(7*50min) = (1/350) tank/min.

Now that we know the value of R, we can do the same calculation but now with 11 pipes.

Then the time needed to fill the tank, T, is such that:

11*(1/350 tank/min)*T = 1 tank

We need to isolate T.

T = 1 tank/(11*(1/350 tank/min)) = 31.82 min

With 11 pipes, you need 31.82 minutes to fill the tank.

Deon has a pizza with a diameter
OverLord2011 [107]

The square box is enough to fit the pizza with a diameter of 10 inches inside. Since the area of the square box is more than the area of the pizza, the pizza fits easily in the square box.

<h3>What is the area of the circle and the square?</h3>

The area of the circle is

Ac = πr² = πd²/4 sq. units

Where r is the radius and d is the diameter of the circle.

The area of the square is given by

As = s² sq. units

Where s is the length of the side of a square.

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

It is given that a pizza(in a circular shape) with a diameter d = 10 in is to be placed in a square box of the same length as the diameter of the pizza.

So,

The area of pizza is

Ap = Ac = πd²/4 sq. units

     = π(10)²/4

     = 25π

     = 78.54 sq. in

Then, the area of the square box with the length same as the diameter of the pizza is,

As = d²

    = 10²

    = 100 sq. in

Since the area of the square is more than the area of the pizza (100 sq. inch > 78.54 sq. inch), the pizza easily fits into the square box.

Find the x and y intercept of 8x+10y=15. NO LINK TO ANSWER PLEASE TYPE
oee [108]

Answer:

x intercept: 15/8 and yintercerpt is 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

to find y intercept you have to put equation in standard form.

10y=-8x+15

y=--4/5x+3/2

x intercept is when y=0, so we plug in 0

0=-4/5x+3/2

4/5x=3/2

x=15/8
