The question is incomplete, the complete question is;
If in 0.5 min the tank gets 0.8 gallons of the water then
how many gallons will be in 1 min ?
how many gallons will be in 3 min?
and how long it takes for 40 gallons?
Answer:
1.6 gallons
4.8 gallons
25 mins
Step-by-step explanation:
This question has to do with proportion.
If it takes 0.5 mins for the tank to get 0.8 gallons
in 1 minute the tank will get 0.8 * 1/0.5 = 1.6 gallons
In 3 minutes the tank will get 3 * 1.6 gallons = 4.8 gallons
if it takes 1 min to get 1.6 gallons
it will take x mins to get 40 gallons
x = 1 * 40/1.6 = 25 mins
Answer:
3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, we need to calculate the slope of the line shown. This can be computed as:

where
is the increment along the y-direction
is the increment along the x-direction
We can choose the following two points to calculate the slope of the line shown:
(-3,2) and (0,-2)
And so, the slope of the line shown is

Two lines are said to be perpendicular if the slope of the first line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the second line:

Using
, we find that a line perpendicular to the line shown should have a slope of

How do you reverse division? You multiply. So, the answer is multiplying by 28.
