Answer:
First, we have to find the LCM of 12 and 8 which would be 24. Since we have to multiply 8 by 3, and 12 by 2, then the shortest height would be two 12-inch boxes, and three 8-inch boxes.

Raj’s bathtub is clogged and is draining at a rate of 1.5 gallons of water per minute. The table shows that the amount of water remaining in the bathtub, y, is a function of the time in minutes, x, that it has been draining.
What is the range of this function?
all real numbers such that y ≤ 40
all real numbers such that y ≥ 0
all real numbers such that 0 ≤ y ≤ 40
all real numbers such that 37.75 ≤ y ≤ 40

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
3(x - 2) + 8 = 2(x + 5)
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- (Parenthesis) Distribute: 3x - 6 + 8 = 2x + 10
- Combine like terms: 3x + 2 = 2x + 10
- {Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 2x on both sides: x + 2 = 10
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 2 on both sides: x = 8
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: 3(8 - 2) + 8 = 2(8 + 5)
- (Parenthesis) Subtract/Add: 3(6) + 8 = 2(13)
- Multiply: 18 + 8 = 26
- Add: 26 = 26
Here we see that 26 does indeed equal 26.
∴ x = 8 is the solution to the equation.

Answer:
<em>Pool 1 leaks faster than pool 2.</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Rates of change</u>
The rate of change (ROC) is a measure that compares two quantities, usually to know how fast one variable changes in time.
We are given two rates of change for two pools that are leaking. The first one loses 2/3 gallon in 15 minutes, and the other loses 3/4 gallon in 20 minutes.
To compare them, we are required to express time in hours. Recall one hour has 60 minutes, or equivalently, one minute has 1/60 hours. Converting both times, we have:
15 minutes = 15/60 = 1/4 hours
20 minutes = 20/60 = 1/3 hours
Now compute both rates of change:
Pool 1:

Pool 2:

Comparing both ratios, it's clear pool 1 leaks faster than pool 2.
