A village wishes to measure the quantity of water that is piped to a factory during a typical morning. A gauge on the water line

gives the flow rate (in cubic meters per hour) at any instant. The flow rate is about 100 m3/hr at 6 am and increases steadily to about 280 m3/hr at 9 am. Using only this information, give your best estimate of the total volume of water used by the factory between 6 am and 9 am.

Answer:

570 m³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of water is the product of flow rate of water and the time taken. We are to get the volume of water used between 6 am and 9 am, that is for 3 hours (9 - 6).

We are given the flow rate at 6 am and the flow rate at 9 am, but this flow rate changes between 6 am and 9 am. To get the estimate of the water used, Let us assume that it flows at the same flow rate as it was at 6 am throughout, hence:

V_L= 100 m^3/h * 3h=300\ m^3

Also, let us assume that it flows at the same flow rate as it was at 9 am throughout, hence:

V_R= 280 m^3/h * 3h=840\ m^3

To get the best estimate of the total volume, let us find the average of the two values, hence:

Volume=\frac{V_L+V_R}{2} =\frac{300+840}{2}=570\ m^3

Given f(x) = 3x + 1, solve for x when f(x) = 7.
irakobra [83]

Answer:

f(7) = 22 or x =2

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. f(x) = 3x + 1
  2. f(7) = 3(7) + 1
  3. f(7) = 21 + 1
  4. f(7) = 22

<u>Or if the equation meant it like this:</u>

  1. f(x) = 3x + 1
  2. 7 = 3x + 1
  3. 6 = 3x
  4. 2 = x

To find slope subtract the two points in the coordinate (y). We have 8 and 4 so subtract those two. You get 8-4=4. Now start from the same coordinate expect this time subtract (x). Which is 9-3=6. You have 4/6 simplify and you get 2/3. Your slope is 2/3. Hope this helps

Can you please help me!!

A is more because 1/4 is equal to 2/8 and 2/8 is less than 7/8 so you would have more than a minute
B is three minutes 2/8 goes into 7/8 three times

ella [17]
For the answer to the question above, 

<span>the angle of 360 ° → π.d </span>

<span>the angle of x ° → 8π </span>


<span>You make the cross-multiply and you can get: </span>

<span>x * π.d = 8π * 360 </span>

<span>x * d = 8 * 360 </span>

<span>x = 8 * 360/d → where d = 2r </span>

<span>x = 8 * 360/2r </span>

<span>x = 4 * 360/r → where r = 4.5 cm </span>

<span>x = 4 * 360/4.5 </span>

<span>x = 320 °</span>
