Answer:
1287
Step-by-step explanation:
93.22-16=77.22
77.22 devided by 0.06=1287
So,
120 gal./min.
There are 4 qt. in a gal.
Multiply 120 by 4.
120(4) = 480 qt.
The pool is being drained at a rate of 480 qt./min.
Now, since there are 60 min. in an hr., multiply 480 by 60.
480(60) = 28,800 qt./hr.
The pool is being drained at a rate of 28,800 qt./hr. (quarts per hour)
Answer:
x = -1255
Step-by-step explanation:
336+x/5=85
Subtract 336 from each side
336-336 +x/5=85-336
x/5 =-251
Multiply each side by 5
x/5 * 5 = -251 *5
x = -1255
Answer:
x = -4
Step-by-step explanation:
To make this easier to explain and easier to solve, we're going to first multiply the second equation of 9x-7y=-15 by -1 to make the y coefficient positive.
This results in -9x+7y=15.
When we line up the two equations on top of each other now, we'll see that both the first and second equations have opposite y coefficients, which is vital for elimination.
The next step is to add the second equation to the first one. Teachers may tell you to subtract, but I find it easier to add if you make the two y coefficients of negative value to each other.
4x-7y=5
+ -9x+7y=15
___________
-5x+0y=20, or just -5x=20, because you have successfully eliminated the y variable.
From there, you're going to solve like a normal equation (divide both sides by -5) toget you x=-4.
The square root of 144 is 12
