Two hoses from two different taps are used to fill a fishpond. The first hose alone

Mathematics
1 answer:
Paraphin [41]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:  12 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Two rates for hoses A and B.  FP is the Fish Pond.

A = 20 min/FP   or (1/20)FP/min

B = 30 min/FP   or (1/30)FP/min

The time in minutes, X,  to fill  one FP:

                     1FP = X*((1/20)FP/min) + X*((1/30)FP/min)  

                     1FP = X*(1/20+1/30)FP/min

                     1FP = X*(2.5/30)FP/min

                      X = 12 minutes

A Family travels at a constant rate and drove 420 miles in 7 hours.If they drive at the same speed ,How many miles will they dri
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

240 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

We find the constant rate at which the family travels

Speed(Rate) = Distance/Time

A Family travels at a constant rate and drove 420 miles in 7 hours.

Speed(Rate) = 420 miles/7 hours

= 60 miles per hour

Step 2

If they drive at the same speed ,How many miles will they drive in the next four hours.?

We are to finally calculate the distance for the next 4 hours

Distance = Speed × Time

Speed = 60 miles per hour

Time = 4 hours

Distance = 60 miles per hour × 4 hours

Distance = 240 miles

Therefore, for the next 4 hours the number of miles they would drive is 240 miles

Prove that<br> cos^4∆ - sin^4∆ = 2cos^2∆ - 1
GarryVolchara [31]

\cos^{4} x-\sin^{4} x\\\\=(\cos^{2} x+\sin^{2} x)(\cos^{2} x-\sin^{2} x)\\\\=\cos^{2} x-\sin^{2} x\\\\=\cos^{2} x-(1-\cos^{2} x)\\\\=2\cos^{2} x-1

The length of s is 2/3 the length of t. If s has an area of 368 cm squared find the perimeter of the figure
ser-zykov [4K]
s = \frac{2}{3}t&#10;\\\ \frac{2}{3}t*t = \frac{2}{3}t^2&#10;\\\ \frac{2}{3}t^2 = 368&#10;\\\ t^2 = \frac {3}{2}368&#10;\\\ t^2 = 552&#10;\\\ t \approx 23.5&#10;\\\ s \approx 15.6&#10;\\\ P \approx 78.2

E = {10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23}
Nata [24]

Answer:

A=11,13,17,19 B=12,18 None=10,14,16,19 Both=15

Step-by-step explanation:

11,13,15,17,19 are all odd so they go in A

12,15,18 Are all multiples of 3 so they go in B

10,14,16,19 Are not classified so they go outside of the diagram but inside E

15 is odd and a multiple of 3 so put it in the center and not with A and B
