Answer:
20 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
We can work easier if we think in terms of an hour
the first equation that we can write is
A + B = 1/4 (its meaning is that in an hour A and B fill 1/4 of the cistern)
the second equation we can write is
A + C = 1/5 (its meaning is that in an hour A and C fill 1/5 of the cistern)
the third equation that we can write is
B = 2C (its meaning is that in an hour B fill 2 times C the cistern)
now we can substitute the value of B in the first two equations
A + 2C = 1/4
A + C = 1/5
A = 1/5 - C
1/5 - C + 2C = 1/4
C = 1/4 -1/5
C = (5-4)/20
C = 1/20 (this means that in an hour C will fill 1/20 of the cistern, so it takes 20 hours to fill the entire cistern)
A = 1/5 - 1/20
A = (4-1)/20 = 3/20
B = 1/20 *2 = 1/10
Answer:
-1.8 =x
Step-by-step explanation:
12(x+3)=-8x
Distribute
12x +36 = -8x
Subtract 12x from each side
12x-12x +36 = -8x-12x
36 = -20x
Divide each side by -20
36/-20 = -20x/-20
-9/5 = x
Changing to decimal form
-1.8 =x
Answer:
3. f(12) = -10; f(37) = -60
4. f(12) = -102; f(37) = -352
Step-by-step explanation:
3. Put the numbers in the formula and do the arithmetic:
f(12) = 12 -2(12-1) = 12 -22 = -10
f(37) = 12 -2(37-1) = 12 -72 = -60

4. The explicit formula for an arithmetic sequence with first term a1 and common difference d is ...
an = a1 +d(n -1)
Your sequence has a first term a1=8 and a common difference d=-10.
As above, fill in the numbers and do the arithmetic.
f(12) = 8 -10(12 -1) = -102
f(37) = 8 -10(37-1) = -352
