Answer:
25 minutes 42 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
The tub will fill at the rate of ...
2.25 gal/min - 0.50 gal/min = 1.75 gal/min
It will take ...
45 gal/(1.75 gal/min) ≈ 25.714 min
for the tub to fill.
You can shower for about 25 minutes 42 seconds.
16 because 2•0 is 0. 8-0 is 8 and 2(8) is 16
15x15= 225
15x + 105= 225
15x= 225-105
15x= 120
X=8
X+ (x+1) + (x+2) + (x+3)…etc all the way up too +(x+14)=225
The first five numbers of the set: 8, 9, 10, 11, 12
Let the number of gallons consumed be the first car be x, and that of the second car, y. Then:
x + y = 50 . . . . . . . (1)
20x + 15y = 850. . . (2)
(1) x 20 => 20x + 20y = 1000 . . . (3)
(2) - (3) => -5y = -150 => y = -150/-5 = 30
From (1), x + 30 = 50 => x = 50 - 30 = 20
Therefore, first car consumed 20 gallons and the second consumed 30 gallons.
