-- The filler pipe can fill 1/6 of the pool every hour.
-- The drainer pipe can drain 1/10 of the pool every hour.
-- When they're filling and draining at the same time, the filler pipe
will win eventually, because it finishes more of the pool in an hour
than what the drain pipe can finish in an hour.
-- When they're filling and draining at the same time, then every hour,
1/6 of the pool fills and 1/10 of it empties. The difference is (1/6) - (1/10).
To do that subtraction, we need a common denominator.
The smallest denominator that works is 30.
1/6 = 5/30
1/10 = 3/30 .
So in every hour, 5/30 of the pool fills, and 3/30 of the pool empties.
The result of both at the same time is that 2/30 = 1/15 fills each hour.
If nobody notices what's going on and closes the drain pipe, it will take
<em><u>15 hours</u></em> to fill the pool.
If the drain pipe had <em><u>not</u></em> been open, the filler pipe alone could have filled
the pool <em><u>2-1/2 times</u></em> in that same 15 hours. With both pipes open,
1-1/2 pool's worth of water went straight down the drain during that time,
and it was wasted.
I would say that the school should take the cost of 1-1/2 poolsworth out
of Ms. Charles' pay at the rate of $5 a week. I would, but that would
guarantee her more job security than she deserves after pulling a stunt
like that.
I hope this did not take place in California.
The equations are 30+2x and 16+5x. i plug random numbers into x until you fint the correct answer. the answer is 5.
Answer:
$817.60
Step-by-step explanation:
Simple interest has the formula:
Simple Interest = Principal * rate * time
here,
Principal amount is $730
The rate of interest is 3%, which is 3/100 = 0.03
The time length in years is given as 4
We find the interest amount first:
SI = P * r * t
SI = 730 * 0.03 * 4
SI = 87.6
We are asked to find FINAL BALANCE, which is PRINCIPAL + INTEREST
So,
Final Balance = 730 + 87.6 = $817.60
The median of the triangle is a segment that connects the vertex of the triangle to the midpoint of the side opposite to the vertex. <span>The altitude of the triangle is a segment that connects the vertex of the triangle to the side opposite to the triangle, which intersects that side at exactly 90°.</span>
