Answer:

Pipe Q

Step-by-step explanation:

Two pipes p and Q fill a water tank. Each pipe fills the tank with water at a constant rate. Pipe P fills the tank with 20 gallons of water in 4 minutes. The equation in equals n = 6t shows the number of gallons of water n with which pipe Q fills the tank in t minutes. Which pipe fills the tank with more water each minute and by how much

Solution:

Pipe P fills the tank with 20 gallons of water in 4 minutes. If n represent the number of gallons of water that fills the tank in t minutes, then for pipe P:

n = 20 gallons / 4 minutes *t

n = 5t

Also, the number of gallons of water that fills the tank in t minutes for pipe Q is given by:

n = 6t

Since the rate at which pipe Q fills the tank (i.e. 6t) is greater than the rate at which pie P fills the tank (i.e. 5t), hence Pipe P  fills the tank with more water each minute by 6 gallons while pipe P fills by 5 gallons each minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

6. Mr. Bernard travels 5.12 km per hour on his bike. How far can he travel in 3.25 hours?

Speed = 5.12km/hr

Time = 3.25 hr

To find the distance;

Distance = speed * time

Distance = 5.12 * 3.25

Distance = 16.64 km

7. Mrs. Allysa purchased 48 pencils at P 4.50 each. How much did she pay for all the pencils?

Quantity = 48 pencils

Cost price = P 4.50

To find the total selling price;

Total = quantity * cost price

Total = 48 * 4.50

Total = P 216

8. The Villaroel family bought a 125.65 square meter lot at P 4500.00 per square meter. How much did they

pay?

Quantity = 125.65 m²

Cost price = P 4500

Total price = 125.65 * 4500

Total price = P 565425

10. What is 98.75/4 = 24.6875

11. A store owner has 63 kilograms of candy. If she puts the candy into 21 jars, how much candy will each jar

contain?

Mass = 63 kg

Amount = 21 jars

Each jar = 63/21 = 3 kg

12. Ratio: It is the quantitative relation between two amounts showing the number of times one value contains or is contained within the other.

13. Proportion: It is a statement that two ratios are equal.

14. What ratio is equal to 3:5?

We would multiply both ratio by 2

3:5 * 2 = 6:10

15. What ratio is proportional to 4:6?

We would divide both ratio by 2

4:6 / 2 = 2:3
