60% or 3/5 of the tank will be filled in an hour.

The pump will fill 2/5 of the tank in 2/3 hours.

In order to find out how much of the tank will be filled in an hour, use direct proportion and assume portion of the tank that will be filled up in an hour is x.

2/5 of tank : 2/3 hours

x of tank : 1 hour

Cross multiply to get:

2/3x = 2/5

x = 2/5 ÷ 2/3

x = 2/5 x 3/2

= 0.6 of the tank

= 60%

= 3/5 of tank

In conclusion, 60% of the tank will be filled in an hour.

How do u multiply exponents

Ymorist [56]

So, by multiplying the exponents, you would add all of the square roots together. For example for your question you would add 1+1+4+5=11 so the answer is c to the power of 11

Answer:

Check the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

kindly check the attached image below to Determine whether the given set S is a subspace of the vector space (which is contained within a different vector space. So all the subspace is a kind of vector space in their own way, although it is also defined relative to some of the other larger vector space. The linear subspace is more often than not simply called a subspace whenever the situation serves to differentiate it from other types of subspaces.) V.A

Write an exponential function in the form y=ab^x that goes through the point (0,17) and (6,1088)

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

y = 17(2)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

If the graph of y = ab^x goes through (0, 17), then

17 = ab*0, or a = 17

Then the function is y = ab^x with a = 17, or

y = 17*b^x and we must find b.

If the graph of y = 17*b^x also goes through (6, 1088), then the following must be true: 1088 = 17*b^6

which reduces to 64 = b^6

Taking the sixth root of both sides, we get 64^(1/6) = b, and so b = 2

Then the desired exponential function is

y = 17(2)^x
