Answer: Aquaman swims at the rate of 140.47m/min

The rate of water drain is 73.81m/min

Step-by-step explanation: Let A be the rate at which Aquaman swims.

Let W be the rate at which the water drains

3(A - W)= 200 ......equation (1)

0.7(A +W)=150 ..... equation (2)

3A -3W = 200 .....equation 3

0.7A + 0.7W = 150 ..eq4

Multiply eq 3 by 7 and eq 4 by -30

21A - 21W = 1400

-21A + 21W = -4500

Subtracting both equation from each other, you get

-42W = -3100

W = 3100/42

W = 73.81m/min

Put 73.81 for W in equation 1

3A - 3(73.81) = 200

3A - 221.43 = 200

A =421.43/3

A= 140.47m/min

The volume of a cylinder varies jointly with the square of its radius and with its height: V=kr^(2)h Cylinder A has a volume of
Brrunno [24]
We have the following equation:
 V = kr ^ (2) h
 For cylinder A we have:
 251.2 = k * ((4) ^ (2)) * (5)
 Let's clear k:
 k = 251.2 / (((4) ^ (2)) * (5))
 k = 3.14
 For cylinder B we have:
 V = 3.14 * ((3) ^ (2)) * (9)
 V = 254.34 in ^ 3
 Answer:
 the volume of cylinder B is:
 V = 254.34 in ^ 3

Given a dilation where k=2, would the image be an enlargement or a reduction?
stepan [7]
For this case we have the following possible cases:

 Case 1:
 If the scale factor meets 0 <k <1 then the original figure shows a reduction.

 Case 1:
 
If the scale factor complies with k> 1 then, the original figure presents an expansion.
 
 In this case, the scale factor is:
 k = 2 (k> 1)
 Therefore, the figure presents an expansion.

 Answer:
 
b) Enlargement
