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 =

Find the values of p and q such that 4x-5-x^2=q-(x+p)^2
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

p = - 2 , q = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange the left side into standard form

- x² + 4x - 5

Factor out - 1 from - x² + 4x

= - (x² - 4x) - 5

Using the method of completing the square

add/subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term)² tp x² - 4x

= - (x² + 2(- 2)x + 4 - 4) - 5

= - (x - 2)² - (- 4) - 5

= - (x - 2)² + 4 - 5

= - 1 - (x - 2)²

Comparing to q - (x + p)²

with p = - 2 and q = - 1
