N - 7 = 9 if you want it written in equation form
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
20 times 10% is 2
<span><span>27100</span>(60)=<span>815</span>=16<span>15</span></span>
The 16 is how many minutes you have. If you were not given the seconds, we would have to say that we have a remainder of (1/5) of a minute. Since 1 minute is (1/60), one-fifth of that is (1/300). Now we would need to see how many seconds that gives us. 1 second is (1/3600) of a degree, so we would need to divide (1/300) by (1/3600). Doing this gives us:
<span><span><span>1300</span>÷<span>13600</span>=<span>1300</span>(3600)=12</span></span>
Answer:
It would take the newer pump 4.5 hours to drain the pool
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's investigate first what is the fraction of the job done in the unit of time (hour in this case) by each pump if the work individually:
older pump: if it takes it 9 hours to complete the job, it does
of the job in one hour.
newer pump: we don't know how long it takes (this is our unknown) so we call it "x hours". Therefore, in the unit of time (in one hour) it would have completed
of the total job.
both pumps together: since it takes both 3 hours to complete the job, in one hour they do
of the job.
Now, we can write the following equation about fractions of the job done:
<em>The fraction of the job done by the older pump plus the fraction of the job done by the newer pump in one hour should total the fraction of the job done when they work together.</em> That is in mathematical terms:

and solving for x:
