Answer:

450 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

w = 45000 - 100t

Required

Determine how long it'll take to empty the pool

Being empty means there's no water in the pool.

So, we have to set w to 0 to get the value of t

i.e w = 0

Substitute 0 for w in w = 45000 - 100t

0 = 45000 - 100t

Collect Like Terms

100t = 45000

Divide through by 100.

t = 450

Hence, it'll take 450 minutes to empty the pool

Together, Dante and Mia have a total of 350 pennies in their piggy banks. After Dante lost ½ of his pennies and Mia lost ⅓ of he
natta225 [31]

Answer:

Altogether they lost 150 pennies.

Step-by-step explanation:

X = Dante's pennies

Y = Mia's pennies

X + Y = 350                                       1/2 X = 2/3 Y

                                                                X = 4/3 Y

4/3 Y + Y = 350

7/3 Y = 350

Y = 350 * 3/7

Y = 50 * 3

Y = 150

X + 150 = 350

X = 200

                                                     1/2 * 200 = 2/3 * 150

                                                       100 .      =   100

1/2 * 200 = 100 -> Dante lost 100 pennies

1/3 * 150 = 50 -> Mia lost 50 pennies

Altogether they lost 150 pennies.
