I find it convenient to look at the differences and the rate at which those differences are made up.
8. Jim is closing the $150 gap at the rate of $7.50 per week. He will catch up in
... 150/(7.5/week) = 20 weeks
9. At noon, the price of Stock A has increased by 0.05×3 = 0.15, so is now $15.90, which is $0.63 more than Stock B at that time. The prices are closing the gap at the rate of $0.05 +0.13 = $0.18 per hour, so will be the same after
... $0.63/($0.18/hour) = 3.5 hours . . . . after noon, at 3:30 pm

You can also write and solve equations for the prices of the stocks. Or you can use a graphing calculator to tell you the solution. When equations are involved, I like to solve them the simplest possible way: let technology do it.
You are given the value at a time, and the rate of change of that value, so the equations are easily written in point-slope form. You will note that the common price at 3:30 pm (15.5 hours after midnight) is one that is not a whole number of cents. (That's usually OK for when trading stocks.)
57 minute will take to fill the tank.
Solution:
Height of the cylinder = 6 ft
Diameter of the cylinder = 6 ft
Radius of the cylinder = 6 ÷ 2 = 3 ft
Volume of the cylinder = πr²h
= 3.14 × 3² × 6
Volume of the cylinder = 169.56 cubic feet
Time taken to fill 3 cubic feet of water = 1 minute
Time taken to fill 169.56 cubic feet of water =
= 56.52 minute
= 57 minute
Hence 57 minute will take to fill the tank.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First, begin by multiplying by its reciprocal.
To do this, flip the fraction upside-down.
The resulting equation looks like this:
Cancel out the two 27's and you are left with , which you can simplify to q.
Next, multiply -3 by . Remember, what you do on one side, you must do on the other.
Your equation should look like this:
The final answer is .
Have a nice day!
