1/9 + 1/2 = 1/x
Let x = length of time it will take both hoses to work together
Multiply both sides by 18x.
2x + 9x = 18
10x = 18
x = 18/10
x = 9/5
x = 1.8 hours
In other words, if both hoses work together, the pool can be filled in 1 hour and 48 minutes.
Answer:
25%
Step-by-step explanation:
If Denver gets 8/19 of the food, 11/19 of the food is left between Engle and Fido.
If the food is shared in a ratio of 6 : 2 between the pair, Engle gets 6/8 and Fido gets 2/8.
Thus, 2/8 = 25%.

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
5x + 3 - 2x = 12 + 7x - 2
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Combine like terms: 3x + 3 = 7x + 10
- [SPE] Subtract 3x on both sides: 3 = 4x + 10
- [SPE] Subtract 10 on both sides: -7 = 4x
- [DPE] Divide 4 on both sides: -7/4 = x
- Rewrite: x = -7/4
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: 5(-7/4) + 3 - 2(-7/4) = 12 + 7(-7/4) - 2
- Multiply: -35/4 + 3 + 7/2 = 12 - 49/4 - 2
- Add: -23/4 + 7/2 = 12 - 49/4 - 2
- Add: -9/4 = 12 - 49/4 - 2
- Subtract: -9/4 = -1/4 - 2
- Subtract: -9/4 = -9/4
Here we see that -9/4 does indeed equal -9/4.
∴ x = -7/4 is the solution to the equation.
Answer:19, 81, 45
Step-by-step explanation:
Option C
<u>
Answer:
</u>
The equation in slope intercept form is 
The slope is
and y-intercept is 
<u>Solution:
</u>
The slope - intercept form equation of line is given as
y = mx + c ---- eqn(1)
Where m is the slope of the line. The coefficient of “x” is the value of slope of the line.
c is the y – intercept which is the value of y at the point where the line crosses the y-axis
From question, given that -5x - 12y = 11 --- eqn (2)
On converting equation (2) in slope – intercept form, that is adding 5x on both sides,
-5x - 12y + 5x = 5x + 11
-12y = 5x + 11
Now on dividing -12 on both sides,
---- eqn (3)
Comparing the given equation (3) with equation (1), we get
and 
Hence Option C is correct.
