Answer:

The question is asking what is the volume of water in the full pool. It is 70 liters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let P represent the volume of a full pool.

"2/5 of a kiddy pool was filled with water" can be written as:

(2/5)P.

"After pouring out 5/7 of the amount of [I assume from the 2/5P] water in the pool" can be written as:

(2/7)(2/5)P, or (4/35)P [This represents the amount of water remaining in the pool after the above shenanigans.]

The we are told that when 62 liters are added back to the pool, it is full. That can be written as:

62 + (4/35)P = P [Add 62 liters to what was remaining. ((4/35)P), and we'll have P, a full pool, for a cool fool. [sorry]

62 = (31/35)P

P = 62(35/31)

P = 70 liters

Answer:

If it is $\sqrt{96} \sqrt{96}$ then it is the solution $\sqrt{96} \sqrt{96} = 96$ because the square root of an expression multiplied by itself gives that expression.

Answer: g(x) at (70, 55)

Step-by-step explanation:

The minimum of g(x) is lower than f(x) which is (20, 340) and thats obviously higher than (70, 55) so :)

-12+5x=15-4x Please help me :( I need to know how to get the answer as well

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand

5x+15=4x-12

We move all terms containing x to the left and all other terms to the right.

+5x-4x=-12-15

We simplify left and right side of the equation.

+1x=-27

then divide both sides of the equation by 1 to get x.

x=-27

A triangle has sides with lengths of 7 feet, 15 feet, and 17 feet. is it a right triangle?

aksik [14]

To test if this is a right triangle, let's test these side lengths with the Pythagorean Theorem.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

c is the hypotenuse, the longest side of a right triangle.
a and b are the legs of the right triangle.

a = 7
b = 15
c = 17

7^2 + 15^2 = 17^2 ?

49 + 225 = 289 ?

274 ≠ 289

Thus, this triangle is not a right triangle since it does not satisfy the Pythagorean Theorem.

Have an awesome day! :)
