Answer:
? = 13.6
Step-by-step explanation:
the angle between a tangent and the diameter = 90°
Then the triangle is right with legs 2 × 6 = 12 and 6.4
using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.
the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the legs , that is
? ² = 12² + 6.4² = 144 + 40.96 = 184.96 ( take square root of both sides )
? = = 13.6
Answer:
9.1 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let t represent time taken to fill the tank.
We have been given that a cold water faucet can fill a sink in 12 min, so the part of sink filed in 1 minute would be .
The hot-water faucet can fill it in 15 min, so the part of sink filed in 1 minute would be .
The drain can empty the sink in 25 min, so the part of drain emptied in 1 minute would be .
The part of 1 full tank filled in t minutes, when both faucets are on and the drain is open would be:
Make a common denominator:
Therefore, it will take 9.1 minutes to fill the sink.
