Answer:
One piece is inches and another piece is inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let smaller piece length be
Let larger piece length be
Since total of two pieces is 43, we can write:
Also, one piece is twice as long as the other (so longer piece is definitely twice as the short piece), we can write:
<em>Substituting equation 2 into equation one, we can solve for s:</em>
<em>Thus longer piece is:</em>
Answer:
54 ft = 18 yd 9. 11 L ≈ 11.6236 qt 10. 80 g = 0.08 kg
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
d
Step-by-step explanation:
look at the x and y axis
The answer is 96 min, here is why:
x / 240 + x / 160 = 1
<span>2x + 3x = 480 </span>
<span>5x = 480 </span>
<span>x = 96 min
(</span><span>Drainage rate of first pipe = 480000/240 = 2000 l/min </span>
<span>Drainage rate of second tube = 480000/160 = 3000 l/min </span>
<span>Combined drainage rate = 5000 l/min </span>
<span>Time to drain = 480000/5000 = 96 min. )</span>
Answer:
84.5 m
Step-by-step explanation:
It is often helpful to draw a diagram for word problems involving geometric relationships. One for this problem is shown below.
The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you of the relationship between sides of a right triangle:
Tan = Opposite/Adjacent
Here we're given angles of depression measured from the horizontal (as shown in the diagram), but it is more convenient to use angles measured from the vertical. In particular, ∠BAO is the complement of 60°, and its tangent is the ratio OB/OA:
tan(30°) = OB/OA
OB = (200 m)·tan(30°) ≈ 115.47 m . . . . . . multiply by OA, use OA=200 m
Likewise, we have ...
OC = (200 m)·tan(45°) = 200 m
Then the width of the river is the difference between these values:
BC = OC -OB = 200 m - 115.47 m = 84.53 m
