Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1000 gallons - 940 = 60 then divide by the time which gets us 60/10=6
Now we can use this answer to help find out the amount remaining in the tank.
5 minutes = 5x6=30; 1000-30= 970 gallons
20 minutes= 20x6=120; 1000-120= 880 gallons
30 minutes=30x6=180; 1000-180= 820 gallons
27 minutes=27x6=162; 1000-162= 838 gallons
X minutes = 1000-6x
Rate of flow is 6 gallons per minute.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
The answer is
x= -35
Step-by-step explanation:
x/5= -7
x= -35. :-)
<em>x</em>/<em>r</em> + <em>x</em>/<em>w</em> + <em>x</em>/<em>t</em> = 1
<em>x</em> (1/<em>r</em> + 1/<em>w</em> + 1/<em>t</em>) = 1
<em>x</em> = 1 / (1/<em>r</em> + 1/<em>w</em> + 1/<em>t</em>)
To make the solution a bit cleaner, multiply through the numerator and denominator by the LCM of each fraction's denominator, <em>rwt</em> :
<em>x</em> = 1 / (1/<em>r</em> + 1/<em>w</em> + 1/<em>t</em>) • <em>rwt</em> / <em>rwt</em>
<em>x</em> = <em>rwt</em> / (<em>rwt</em>/<em>r</em> + <em>rwt</em>/<em>w</em> + <em>rwt</em>/<em>t</em>)
<em>x</em> = <em>rwt</em> / (<em>wt</em> + <em>rt</em> + <em>rw</em>)
Answer:
The answer is 2 1/2 or in mixed form 5/2
