One pipe can fill a pool in 9 hours. Another pipe can fill the pool in 6 hours. How long would it take them to fill the pool if
they were working together?
1 answer:
Answer:
3.6 hours or 3 hours and 36 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the first pipe can fill the pool in 9 hours that means that in 1 hour it fills of the pool, we use the same logic for the second pipe and conclude that in 1 hour it feels up
of the pool. If both were to fill the pool together that means that in 1 hour they would fill...
of the pool in 1 hour.
Now to find how many hours it will take divide the pool by the speed with which it is getting filled.
hours
3.6 hours in other words is 3 hours and 36 minutes.

Answer:
$14.43¢
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given; pounds, 1 pound = $4.20 and
pounds,1 pound = $3.80 that Andrea bought.
Now we need to find her total cost. To do that, we must first find the cost of the avocados. To do so, let us set up a graph. But before that is done, convert to a decimal. It is 1.4. Now we can set up a graph.
<u>Avocados</u>
Switch sides
Apply rule:
Multiply both sides by 1.4
Simplify
So, her cost for avocados is $5.88¢
Now we must first find the cost of the avocados. To do so, let us set up a graph. But before that is done, convert to a decimal. It is 2.25. Now we can set up a graph.
<u>Asparagus</u>
Switch sides
Apply rule :
Multiply both sides by 2.25
Simplify
So, her cost for asparagus is $8.55¢
<u>Total cost</u>
Now that we have found out how much both of the fruits Andrea bought costs, we need to sum it up (meaning add it) to find the total cost:
$5.88¢ + 8.55¢ =
5.88 + 8.55 = 14.43
Therefore, Andrea's total cost of the fruits is $14.43¢
