The bathtub has dimensions 5 ft by 3 ft by 18 inches.
Note that 18 inches = 18/12 = 1.5 ft.
The volume of the bathtub is
V = 5*3*1.5 = 22.5 ft³
The bathtub is three-fourths (0.75) full of water. Therefore the volume of water is
0.75*22.5 = 16.875 ft³
The water is lost at the rate of 1 ft³/min.
If it takes x minutes to empty the bathtub, then
(1 ft³/min)*(x min) = (16.875 ft³)
x = 16.875 min
Answer: 16.875 minutes
I'm not 100% sure on this. I think it's 23.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
Let the shorter base = x
Let the longer base = 3x
h = 5
Area = 60
Formula
Area = (b1 + b2)*h /2
Solution
60 = (x + 3x)*5 / 2 Multiply both sides by 2
2*60 = (x + 3x)*5 Combine like terms
120 = 4x *5
120 = 20x Divide by 20
120/20 = x
x = 6
Therefore the two bases are
x = 6
3x = 18
Answer:
x=12, y=30
Step-by-step explanation:
to find x:
in a equilateral triangle, all three sides are congruent, so:
4x-4=3x+8
x-4=8
x=12
to find y:
in an equilateral triangle, all the angles are 60°, so:
2y=60
y=30°
