Answer:

She can fill 1 and 1/4 tanks

Step-by-step explanation:

the reason she can fill 1 and 1/4 tanks is because if you multiply 5 by 12 you get 60 and then you multiply 4 by 12 and its 48 so 48/60 is what you get meaning that it takes her 48 minutes to fill one tank and 48 plus 12 is 60 and 12 is 1/4 out of 48 so you get 1 and 1/4 tanks she can fill in one hour.

PLEASE HELP WILL GIVE BRAINIEST AND A THANKS!!!!! Write the equation of the line.

solong [7]

1.) y= 2/3x
2.)y= -1x + 1
3.)y= 2x + 1
4.)y= -2/3x + 1
The structure of the formula is y = mx + b.
m is the slope.
slope is found by rise over run.
b is the y intercept.
which is found by where the line is on the y axis

Determine whether quantities vary directly or inversely and find the constant of variation. It takes four identical water pumps

NNADVOKAT [17]

Let the number of water pumps be n and the time taken to fill the pool is t.

Now, we can see that higher the number of water pumps, lesser the time to fill the pool.

It means quantities vary indirectly.

Thus, $n=\frac{k}{t} , \text{ where k is the constant of variation}$
