Answer:
$100
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply 5 times 20 because amy gave 5 dollars to 20 people. That would be how much she gave away in total.
It is 6 units because you find the absolute value of the two different coordinates, in this case it is 4 and -2. Since they belong in different quadrants (one x or y value is positive and the other is negative) you add them. If they are both in the same quadrant, you subtract them.
Suppose the larger pump alone can empty the tank in L hours, and the smaller pump can finish the job in S hours, then each hour the large pump empties 1/L portion of the tank, and the small pump empties 1/S per hour
Working together for three hours, they empty the whole tank, which is 100% of it, so 3/L+3/S=100%=1
Larger pump can empty the tank in 4 hours less than the smaller one, so L=S-4
replace L: 3/(S-4)+3/S=1
Make the denominator the same to solve for:
3S/[S(S-4)] +3(S-4)/[S(S-4)]=1
(3S+3S-12)/[S(S-4)]=1
(3S+3S-12)=[S(S-4)]
S^2-10s+12=0
use the quadratic formula to solve for S
S is about 8.6
The answer is not whole hour.
Answer:
2 3/6
Step-by-step explanation:
You must turn 1 2/3 and 1 1/2 into improper fractions. You then multiply them and get an answer of 15/6, but since 6 can go into 15 twice (6x2=12+3=15), you get a whole of 2 and 3/6.
