Mathematics

Dovator [93]2 years ago

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x. Writing an equation in terms of the number, x, gives

5x=13x-16.

Adding 16 to both sides gives

5x+16=13x.

Then, subtracting 5x from both sides gives

8x=16,

and dividing by 8 on both sides simplifies to

x=2.

Gekata [30.6K]
The complete question is
John and Matt are going to fill a pool with 2 different sized hoses. John can fill the pool in 5 hours, while Matt can complete it in 10 hours.How long will it take both to fill the pool? Explain each step in solving this equation.

we know that
<span>John can fill the pool in --------------> 5 hours
</span>therefore
<span>I calculate the amount of pool that John fills in one hour
</span>if John can fill 100% of the  pool in----------------> 5 hours
X--------------------------------------> 1 hour
X=1/5=0.20 pool/hour

Matt  can fill the pool in --------------> 10 hours
therefore
I calculate the amount of pool that Matt  fills in one hour
if Matt can fill 100% of the  pool in----------------> 10 hours
X--------------------------------------> 1 hour
X=1/10=0.10 pool/hour

<span>adding both amounts

(0.20+0.10)=0.30 -----------> 30% pool/hour
then
</span>if both can fills 30% of the  pool in----------------> 1 hour
100%-------------------------------> X
X=100/30=3.33 hours----------> 3 hours + 19 minutes+ 48 sec

the answer is 3.33 hours (3 hours + 19 minutes+ 48 sec)

<span>The equation to determine the amount of pool filling (y) according to time (t) in hours is given by

</span><span>y=0.30*t

Volume and surface area
zhenek [66]

Answer:

The volume of the suitcase will be 199.5 ft^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of a 3D shape (in question, the suitcase) we use the formula length x width x height. With this in mind, we multiply 19 x 7 = 133. Multiply 133 by 1.5, which equals 199.5. With a final answer of 199.5, the volume of the suitcase will be 199.5 ft^{3}.
