Answer:

150 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

P.S - The exact question is -

Given - This is the pond in a shape of a prism, it is completely full of

             water. Colin uses a pump to empty the pond. The level goes

             down by 20 cm in the first 30 min.

To find - Work put how many minutes Colin has to wait for the pond

               to completely empty.

Proof -

Given that,

Height of prism = 1 m

Also,

Base of the prism is trapezium and

Sides of the trapezium are 0.6 m and 1.4 m

Height of trapezium is 2 m

We know that,

Area of trapezium = \frac{1}{2}× (sum of sides)× height

                             =  \frac{1}{2}× (0.6 + 1.4)× 2

                             =  \frac{1}{2}× (2)× 2

                             =  2 m²

⇒Area of trapezium = 2 m²

Now,

Volume of prism = Area of trapezium × height of prism

                          = 2 m² × 1 m

                          = 2 m³

⇒Volume of prism = 2 m³

Now,

Given that the level goes down by 20 cm in the first 30 min

We know

100 cm = 1 m

⇒1 cm = \frac{1}{100} m = 0.01 m

⇒20 cm = 20×0.01 m = 0.2 m

⇒The level goes down by 0.2 m in the first 30 min.

Also,

we know that height of water = height of prism = 1 m

So, the remaining water left in the pond = 1 m - 0.2 m = 0.8 m

Also,

Volume of Remaining water = Area of trapezium × height

                                           = 2 m² × 0.8 m

                                           = 1.6 m³

⇒Volume of Remaining water = 1.6 m³

Now,

Volume of emptied water = Total Volume - Volume of Remaining water

                                       = 2 m³ - 1.6 m³

                                       = 0.4 m³

⇒Volume of emptied water = 0.4 m³

Now,

0.4 m³ water will be empty in 30 minutes

⇒ 1 m³ water will be empty in \frac{30}{0.4} = 75 minutes

⇒1.6 m³ water will be empty in 1.6 × 75 = 120 minutes

∴ we get

The remaining water is empty in 120 minutes

So,

Total pond is empty in 120 + 30 minutes

⇒Total pond is empty in 150 minutes

Answer:

<u> $50</u> is <u>27.02%</u> of <u>$185</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Money spent on clothing = $50

Money spent on Groceries = $100

Money spent on Gas = $35

Total money spent = $185

Our question is to find the percentage of total money that is spent on clothing.

Percentage money on clothing = \frac{Money spent on clothing}{Total money} × 100

                                                   = \frac{50}{185} × 100

                                                   = 27.02% (approx)

Hence,<u> $50</u> is <u>27.02%</u> of <u>$185</u>.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 46 in and the diagonal is 17 in. Find the area of the rectangle.
OlgaM077 [116]
P=2*(L+l)=46
L+l=46:2
L+l=23
(L+l)^2=529
(L^2+l^2)+2l*L=529

D= V L^2+l^2= 17
L^2+l^2=289

so 289+2l*L=529
     2l*L=529-289=240
l*L=240:2
A=120
