Answer: With 11 pipes, you need 31.82 minutes to fill the tank.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's define R as the rate at which one single pipe can fill a tank.
We know that 7 of them can fill a tank in 50 minutes, then we have the equation:
7*R*50min = 1 tank
Whit this equation, we can find the value of R:
R = 1 tank/(7*50min) = (1/350) tank/min.
Now that we know the value of R, we can do the same calculation but now with 11 pipes.
Then the time needed to fill the tank, T, is such that:
11*(1/350 tank/min)*T = 1 tank
We need to isolate T.
T = 1 tank/(11*(1/350 tank/min)) = 31.82 min
With 11 pipes, you need 31.82 minutes to fill the tank.
40/3 days, (13.33 days)
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up the equation, 15/20 = 10/x, and then use cross mutiply to solve it.
10 * 20 = 15x, x = 200/15 = 40/3
Why?
b/c if each pig eats the same amount of food, then the ratio between the number of pigs and days should remain constant.
(1,-1) (-3,-3)
-3 - -3/ -1 -1
0/ -2
Slope is -2
It's the same as finding the hypothenuse of a right triangle. Let c be the hypothenuse.
30 squared+ 50 squared= c squared.
900+ 2500= c squared
3400= c squared
Then find the square root of 3400 and that will equal c.
So, depending in what form the teacher was the answer. The answer will be square root of 3400 ft squared or 58.3 ft squared.
