<span>Those TWO pumps together work at a rate 100 gallons per minute.

You have basement dimensions, but to get volume as gallons, you need to know:
This is wrong: 231 cubic feet = 1 gallon

Know these: 231 cubic inches = 1 gallon, 12 inches = 1 foot

, cubic feet, the volume of water in the basement - which seems to be given in two sections.

You would use a uniform rates formula like RT=V for rate, time, volume.
You would use it as T=V/R. </span>

For a total of 14681.9 gallons. At 50 gallons per minute it will take 294 minutes which is about 5 hours and hence with 2 pumps about 2.5 hours.

In a certain fraction, the numerator is 4 less than the denominator. If 4 is added to both the numerator and the denominator , t
love history [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the new fraction is 8/12 I will show how to find it.

Let's say the original denominator is x, then the numerator is x-4, so we have (x-4)/x.

Then it says f we add 4 to both, so now we have x/(x+4) this equals 8/12.  Now, keep in mind -4 cannot be an answer because it would make x/(x+4) be divided by 0 which wouldn't exist.

Now we just use algebra.

x/(x+4) = 8/12

12x = 8(x+4)

12x = 8x + 32

4x = 32

x = 8

So the original fraction (x-4)/x = (8-4)/8 = 4/8

A new cell tower is being constructed and needs a guy-wire connected 180 feet up the tower and it needs to make an angle of 52°
nevsk [136]

Answer:

228.42 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for this question, we would be applying the Trigonometric function of Sine.

Sin theta = Opposite/Hypotenuse

Theta = 52°

Opposite = 180ft

Hypotenuse = Length of the wire = x

Hence:

sin 52 = 180/x

x = 180/sin 52

x = 228.42327871 ft

Approximately = 228.42 ft
