Answer: It should be 1/2, 50% or 0.5
Step-by-step explanation: There are only two different things you can get when flipping the coin, so it would be 1/2
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:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
To write the equation of the line. first calculate the slope using the slope formula.
Since the slope of this line is 0, it is horizontal and has the form y=b where b is the y-coordinate. So y = 2 is the equation. In general form, it would be y-2 = 0
Answer: x = -1, 1
