Answer:

  • 40 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Rate of filling is 1/15
  • Rate of draining is 1/20

<u>If both lines are open the rate of filling is:</u>

  • 1/15 - 1/20 = 4/60 - 3/60 = 1/60 per hour

Since tank is 1/3 full we need to fill the remaining 2/3 of it.

<u>Time required:</u>

  • 2/3 : 1/60 =
  • 2/3*60 =
  • 40 hours

Are the lines parallel, perpendicular, or neither? One line through the points (3, 2) and (6, 8), and another line through the p
Temka [501]

Answer:

Parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the slope of each line.

One through the points (3,2) and (6,8):-

Slope = rise / run = (8-2)/(6-3)

=  6/3 = 2

The other line:-

Slope =  (6-2)(2-0)

= 4/2 = 2

The slopes are the same so the 2 lines are parallel.

The area of the rect. is 100 ft times 64 ft, or 6400 ft^2.

Let's list factors of 6400: 64,100

64= 2^6

100= 2^2*5^2

Here we see that 2 appears 8 times as a factor, and 5 appears 2 times:

6400 = 2^6 * 10^2 = 2^8*5^2

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

\cos\theta=\frac{10}{\sqrt{116}}

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we can imagine a line drawn directly down from the point (10,4) to the x-axis. This would make a right triangle with length 10 and height 4.

\cos\theta is equal to the length of adjacent leg to the angle divided by the length of the hypotenuse of the triangle. From the picture, we can see the adjacent leg is 10.

We can use Pythagorean's Theorem to find the hypotenuse (let c represent the length of the hypotenuse):

10^2+4^2=c^2

100+16=c^2

116=c^2

c=\sqrt{116}

Thus, we know the adjacent is 10, and the hypotenuse is \sqrt{116}. This means \cos\theta=\frac{10}{\sqrt{116}}.

Hope this helps!
