Answer:

0.03846154... inches/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

between 10 P.M. and 7:45 A.M. = 9.75 hours

(3/8) inches / 9.75 hours = 0.03846154... inches per hour

EDIT: in fraction form

Answer:

1/26 inches/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

between 10 P.M. and 7:45 A.M. = 9 and 3/4 hours, or 39/4 hours

(3/8) inches / (39/4) hours = 1/26 inches per hour

Juliette [100K]
x-the\ number\\\\x^2-(5+3x)=0\\\\x^2-5-3x=0\\\\x^2-3x-5=0

Use\ the\ quadratic\ formula:\\a^2x+bx+c=0\\\\\Delta=b^2-4ac\\\\if\ \Delta > 0\ then\ x_1=\dfrac{-b-\sqrt\Delta}{2a}\ and\ x_2=\dfrac{-b+\sqrt\Delta}{2a}\\\\if\ \Delta=0\ then\ x_0=\dfrac{-b}{2a}\\\\if\ \Delta < 0\ then\ no\ solution

x^2-3x-5=0\\\\a=1;\ b=-3;\ c=-5\\\\\Delta=(-3)^2-4\cdot1\cdot(-5)+3+20=29 \ \textgreater \  0\\\\\sqrt\Delta=\sqrt{29}\\\\x_1=\dfrac{3-\sqrt{29}}{2\cdot1}=\dfrac{3-\sqrt{29}}{2} \ \textless \  0\\\\x_2=\dfrac{3+\sqrt{29}}{2\cdot1}=\dfrac{3+\sqrt{29}}{2} \ \textgreater \  0

Answer:\ \boxed{x=\dfrac{3+\sqrt{29}}{2}}

A swimming pool is 15 by 30 feet and a consistent 5 feet deep. you are painting the walls and floor of the pool. if a gallon can
lukranit [14]

the bottom of the pool is 15 x 30 = 450 sq feet.

 you the have 2 walls that are 30 x 5 = 150 x 2 = 300 square feet

 then 2 walls that are 15 x 5 = 75 x 2 = 150 square feet

 for a total of 450 +300 +150 = 900 square feet

 1 can covers 250 sq ft

so 900/250 = 3.6

 so you would need 4 cans of paint
