One watering system needs about three times as long to complete a job as another warning system when both systems operate at the

algol13

Answer:

One watering system requires 36 minutes to complete the job alone while another watering system requires 12 minutes to complete the job alone.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Both the system can complete the job = 9 minutes

We need find the time required by each system to do the job.

Solution:

Let the time required by another watering system to complete the job be 'x' mins.

Now given:

One watering system needs about three times as long to complete a job as another watering system.

Time required by one watering system = $3x$

Rate to complete the job by another watering system = $\frac{1}{x}\ job/min$

Rate to complete the job by One watering system = $\frac{1}{3x}\ job/min$

Rate at which both can complete the job = $\frac{1}{9}\ job/min$

So we can say that;

Rate at which both can complete the job is equal to sum of Rate to complete the job by another watering system and Rate to complete the job by One watering system.

framing in equation form we get;

$\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{3x}=\frac19$

Now taking LCM to make the denominator common we get;

$\frac{1\times3}{x\times 3}+\frac{1\times1}{3x\times1}=\frac19\\\\\frac{3}{3x}+\frac{1}{3x}=\frac19\\\\\frac{3+1}{3x}=\frac{1}{9}\\\\\frac{4}{3x}=\frac{1}{9}$

By Cross multiplication we get;

$4\times9 =3x\\\\3x =36$

Dividing both side by 3 we get;

$\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{36}{3}\\\\x=12\ min$

Time required by One watering system = $3x =3\times 12 =36\ min$

Hence One watering system requires 36 minutes to complete the job alone while another watering system requires 12 minutes to complete the job alone.

If you buy tomato sauce for $.90 a quart how much does it cost for 5 pints

Dima020 [189]

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is: the price of 5 pints of tomato sauce is $2.25.

To calculate how much does it cost 5 pints, we need to perform a unit conversion with the following unit relationship:

$0.5Quart=Pints$

Now, calculating how much is a pint:

$\frac{0.9}{quarter}*\frac{0.5Quart}{1Pint}=0.45$

A pint is $0.45.

Then, calculating how much are 5 pints:

$Price=0.45*NoOfPints=0.45*5=2.25$

Hence, the price of 5 pints of tomato sauce is $2.25.

Have a nice day!

Work out the formula for the nth term of the<br>quadratic sequence:<br>5, 11, 19, 29

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

n squared + 3n + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

5,11,19,29

Firstly look at the difference between each number. The first difference is 6 then 8 then 10 etc. After that you look at your created sequence - 6,8,10 etc. The difference is 2 each time. Then applying rules, you have to do the constant difference divided by 2 to get a coefficient of n squared. So in this case it's n squared because 2/2 = 1 so you don't have to place a 1 in front of the n squared. After you create a sequence from the n squared. That would be 1,4,9 etc. Then you need to see how to get from the sequence: 1,4,9 etc to your original sequence: 5,11,19 etc. So if you calculate it you will get 4,7,10 because firstly 5-1 = 4 then 11-4 = 7 etc. The sequence 4,7,10 is a linear sequence so the constant difference is 3 each time. So to get a nth term of a linear sequence you will start off as 3n then you will substitute 1 then 2 then 3 into the 3n. Therefore that would be 3,6 etc. So if you take the first substituted term, that would be 3 as said before then you will have to see how to get from the 3 to 4 so that is just adding 1. So the nth term of this linear sequence is 3n + 1. Check if it works at the end. So the overall nth term of the quadratic sequence is n squared as said before + 3n + 1.
