s = hours it takes the small pipe on its own.
L = hours it takes the large pipe on its own.
we know the small pipe can do it in 11 hours total, so s = 11, so, how much of the whole job has the small done in 1 hour only?
well, if it takes 11 hours to do the whole thing, in 1 hour it has done only 1/11 of the whole job.
we know both pipes working together can do it in 6 hours flat. So in 1 hour only, both of them have done only 1/6 of the whole thing.
in that 1 hour, how much has the large one done? well, it has only done 1/L of the job.
and you can round that up as needed.
Answer:answer of questions get B
,,, just x is between two numbers after that create the function (-6,-18)
3+2x=y
6y=5x+4
6(3+2x)=5x+4
18+12x=5x+4
14+12x=5x
14=-7x
-2=x
the number is -2
Answer:
A and B
Step-by-step explanation:
Since these both only have one term and number/variable, making it a monomial.
Answer:
The original length was 41 inches and the original width was 16 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the original length of the piece of metal
y ----> the original width of the piece of metal
we know that
When squares with sides 5 in long are cut from the four corners and the flaps are folded upward to form an open box
The dimensions of the box are
The volume of the box is equal to
so
simplify
-----> equation A
Remember that
The piece of metal is 25 in longer than it is wide
so
----> equation B
substitute equation B in equation A
solve for y
Solve the quadratic equation by graphing
using a graphing tool
The solution is y=16
see the attached figure
Find the value of x
therefore
The original length was 41 inches and the original width was 16 inches
