Let y(t) represent the level of water in inches at time t in hours. Then we are given ...
  y'(t) = k√(y(t)) . . . . for some proportionality constant k
  y(0) = 30
  y(1) = 29

We observe that a function of the form
  y(t) = a(t - b)²
will have a derivative that is proportional to y:
  y'(t) = 2a(t -b)

We can find the constants "a" and "b" from the given boundary conditions.
At t=0
  30 = a(0 -b)²
  a = 30/b²
At t=1
  29 = a(1 - b)² . . . . . . . . . substitute for t
  29 = 30(1 - b)²/b² . . . . . substitute for a
  29/30 = (1/b -1)² . . . . . . divide by 30
  1 -√(29/30) = 1/b . . . . . . square root, then add 1 (positive root yields extraneous solution)
  b = 30 +√870 . . . . . . . . simplify

The value of b is the time it takes for the height of water in the tank to become 0. It is 30+√870 hours ≈ 59 hours 29 minutes 45 seconds

What is the GCF and LCM for 15,55,52
jonny [76]

Answer:

LCM = 8580

GCF = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

15 = 3 × 5

55 = 5 × 11

52 = 2 × 2 × 13

LCM(15, 55, 52)

= 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 × 11 × 13

= 8580

---------------------------------------------------

GCF  explanation

The factors of 15 are: 1, 3, 5, 15

The factors of 52 are: 1, 2, 4, 13, 26, 52

The factors of 55 are: 1, 5, 11, 55

Then the greatest common factor is 1.

I really don't know how to do this-
shepuryov [24]

The sum of the interior angles of any quadrilateral is 360°.

So,

90° + 90° + 52° + x = 360°

=> 232° + x = 360°

=> x = 360° - 232°

=> x = 128°

Q+12-2(q-22)>0 solve
sineoko [7]

Answer: I think it goes like this im pretty sure ;)

Distribute

q+12-2q+44>0

Combine like terms

-q+56>0

Subtract 56 from both sides

-q>-56

Multiply both sides by -1 (flip the inequality sign)

q<56

The Final answer: q<56
