The Lewis family and the Perry family each used their sprinklers last summer. The water output rate for the Lewis family's sprinkler was 15 L per hour. The water output rate for the Perry family's sprinkler was 40 L per hour. The families used their sprinklers for a combined total of 65 hours, resulting in a total water output of 1850 L . How long was each sprinkler used
Answer:
Hours of use of sprinkler by Lewis family is 30 hours.
Hours of use of sprinkler by Perry family is 35 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let W = hours of use by Lewis family
65 - W = hours of use by Perry family
Then;
15W + 40*(65 - W) = 1850
15W + 2600 - 40W = 1850
(15 - 40)W = 1850 - 2600
-25W = −750
W = 750/25 = 30
Therefore;
W = 30
65 - W = 65 - 30 = 35
Hence,
Hours of use by Lewis family is 30 hours.
Hours of use by Perry family is 35 hours.

Each time, you divide by 10 (move the decimal place 1 place value to the left).
Scientific notation is the representation of a number in a power of ten, with a sequence of digits placing the comma after the first digit, and the power or then that is mathematically consistent with the number. For example 400 is 4.00 * 10^2; 3100 is 3.100 * 10^4; 13421 = 1.3421 * 10 ^4. It is important that you have only one digit before the comma. So, 5,098,00 is 5.098 * 1,000,00 = 5.098 * 10^6. <span>The answer is the option c. 5.098 * 10^6.</span>
