It takes 18 hours to fill a pool using 8 garden hoses. How long would it take to fill the same pool using 9 garden hoses?

Use rates, so 8 garden hoses over 18 hours
then find the how many hours one garden house can fill up by doing this = 18/8 you divide the 8 for both sides which is about 2.25/1
so then you times 9 which is about 20/9 hoses
your answer is 20

Your answer would be 20 because you have to take 18 and divide it by 8 and add the answer you get to the 18 hours and there’s your answer.

Caroline's hair is

The inequality can be used to determine how many months will it take for Caroline's hair to be at least as long as Trinity's hair is (1/5)x + 7 ≥ (1/10)x + 10

<h3>What is an equation? </h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables. An independent variable is a variable that does not depend on other variables while a dependent variable is a variable that depends on other variables.

Let x represent the number of months.

For Caroline's hair:

Length = (1/5)x + 7

For Trinity's hair:

Length = (1/10)x + 10

For Caroline's hair to be at least as long as Trinity's hair, hence:

(1/5)x + 7 ≥ (1/10)x + 10

The inequality can be used to determine how many months will it take for Caroline's hair to be at least as long as Trinity's hair is (1/5)x + 7 ≥ (1/10)x + 10

segment BC is an are of a circle with radius 30.0 cm, and point P is at the center of curvature of the arc Segment DA is an arc

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

The magnetic field is $B = 3.87 *10^{-6} \ T$

Direction is inward

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image

From the question we are told that

The radius of BC is $r_{BC} = 30 \ cm = 0.30 \ m$

The radius of DA is $r _{DA} = 20 \ cm = 0.20 \ m$

The length of CD is $r_{CD} = 10 cm = 0.1 \ m$

The length of AB is $r_{AB} = 10 cm = 0.1 \ m$

The current is $I = 11.4A$

The magnetic field is mathematically represented as

$B = B_{BC} + B_{DA} + B_{CD} + B_{AB}$

$B = \frac{\mu_o I}{4 \pi } [ \frac{\theta_{DA}}{r_{DA}} + \frac{\theta_{BC}}{r_{BC}}+ \frac{\theta_{CD}}{r_{CD}}+\frac{\theta_{AB}}{r_{AB}}]$

Where

$\theta_{BC} = \theta_{DA} = \frac{2\pi}{3}$

Where $\frac{2 \pi}{3} = 120^o$

$\theta_{CD} = \theta_{AB} = 0^o$

$B = \frac{\mu_o I}{4 \pi } [ \frac{\frac{2\pi}{3} }{0.20} - \frac{\frac{2\pi}{3}}{0.30}}+ \frac{0}{0.10}+\frac{0}{0.10}]$

$B = 3.87 *10^{-6} \ T$

The direction is into the page

This because the magnitude of the magnetic field due to arc BC whose direction is outward is less than that of DA whose direction is inward

This is because according to Fleming's Left Hand Rule the direction of current is perpendicular to the direction of magnetic field so since current in arc BC and DA are moving in opposite direction their magnetic field will also be moving in opposite direction

What are all the parts of an algebraic expression and can you define them?

mr Goodwill [35]

Variables - a quantity that may change, depends on the context of the math problem. Ex: x,y
Terms - a variable, or constant, that is multiplied by a variable or variables.
Ex: 5x + 2 + 3y <-- has 3 terms
Coefficient - the constant that multiplies the variable and is next to a variable, Ex: (5x) <-- coefficient is 5
Constants - A fixed value such as 5, 6, 7, etc

A car with a cost price of $5200 is<br> sold at a profit of 15%. Calculate the<br> selling price

andriy [413]

Answer:

We are given the initial price of a car and we are also told that the car sold for a 15% profit which means that the price that the car was sold for is 15% more than it's initial price. This is just a simple multiplication problem which we multiply the initial price by the total percentage plus 0.15

$Sold\ Price = Initial\ Price *(Total\ Percentage+Profit\ Percentage)$
