It would take 180 minutes to fill a swimming pool using the water from 5 taps.
a) How many minutes will it take to fill the pool if only 3 of the taps are used?
b) An assumption being made in my working
is that all the taps are flowing at the same

Answers

Answer 1

It will take 300 minutes to fill the pool if only 3 taps are used

How to determine the number of minutes it will take to fill the pool?

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our solution:

Number of taps = 5 taps

Number of minutes = 180 minutes

From the above parameter, we can calculate the constant of proportionality

The constant of proportionality is calculated as

Constant of proportionality = Number of taps * Number of minutes

Substitute the known values in the above equation

So, we have the following equation

Constant of proportionality = 5 * 180

Evaluate the quotient

Constant of proportionality = 900

The number of minutes it will take to fill the pool is then calculated as

Constant of proportionality = Number of taps * Number of minutes

Where

Constant of proportionality = 900

Number of taps = 3

Substitute the known values in the above equation

So, we have the following equation

900 = 3 * Number of minutes

This gives

Number of minutes = 900/3

Evaluate

Number of minutes = 300

Hence, the number of minutes is 300 minutes

The function f(x) = 210-60x represents a second trip, where f(x) is the number of miles
the car is from its destination after x hours. Which trip takes less time? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

  the trip represented by f(x) takes less time

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a table of time and distance to go, and a function f(x) = 210-60x representing the same for a different trip, you want to know which trip takes less time.

Table

The table has values ...

  (time in hours, remaining distance in miles) = (1, 150), (2, 100), (3, 50)

This shows you the remaining distance decreases by 50 miles for every hour added to the travel time. That means the remaining 50 miles will be reduced to zero after 4 hours.

The trip represented by the table takes 4 hours.

Equation

The function f(x) = 210-60x will have a value of zero when ...

  0 = 210 -60x

  0 = 3.5 -x . . . . . . divide by 60

  x = 3.5 . . . . . . . . add x

The trip represented by the function f(x) takes 3.5 hours.

The second trip takes less time.

1. Henry wants to go on a vacation. He knows it will cost $300 per
day that he's on vacation plus $650 for miscellaneous activities. He
has $2750 dollars in his savings account. How many days can he go
on vacation?

Answers

The number of days Henry can go on vacation is 7 days.

Given that, Henry knows it will cost $300 per day that he's on vacation plus $650 for miscellaneous activities.

What is an equation?

In mathematics, an equation is a formula that expresses the equality of two expressions, by connecting them with the equals sign =.

Let the number of days be x.

Henry has $2750 dollars in his savings account.

So equation is 300x+650=2750

The obtained equation can be solved as follow

300x=2750-650

⇒ 300x = 2100

⇒ x = 2100/300

⇒ x = 7

Therefore, the number of days Henry can go on vacation is 7 days.

A piggy bank contains $2.65 in nickles and dimes. if the number of nickles is 7 less than three times the number of dimes. how many of each are there

Answers

In this question, we have been given a piggy bank contains 2.65$ in nickels and dimes. Then There are 29 nickels and 12 dimes in the piggy bank.

We need to find the number of nickels and dimes if the number of nickels is 7 less than three times the number of dimes.

Let x be the number of nickels and y be the number of dimes.

We know that, 1 dollar = 20 nickels

and 1 dollar = 10 dimes

So, we get an equation

0.05x + 0.1y = 2.65                   ...........(1)

Also the number of nickels is 7 less than three times the number of dimes.

x = 3y - 7                      .................(2)

Substitute above value of x in equation (1)

0.05(3y - 7) + (0.1)y = 2.65

0.15y - 0.35 + 0.1y = 2.65

0.25y = 2.65 + 0.35

0.25 y = 3

y = 12

Substitute above value of y in equation  (2)

x = 3(12) - 7

x = 29

Therefore, there are 29 nickels and 12 dimes in the piggy bank.

Simplifying x,

(10x - 3) ÷ 5 - (1 ÷ 4) = 55 ÷ 4

(7x ÷ 5) - (1 ÷ 4) = 55 ÷ 4

Add (1 ÷ 4) on both sides,

Answers

The probability for at least one white gumball is 0.196

Consider the following:

First jar:100 whites, 25 green

Total=100+25

       =125 gumball

P(White)=100/125=0.8

Second jar:50 whites, 150 blue

Total=50+150

       =200 gumballs

P(White)=50/200=0.25

Third jar:500 whites, 10 red

Total=500+10

         =510

P(White)=500/500=0.98

Now, probability for at least one white is

              =P(white in jar 1)*P(white in jar 2)*P(white in jar 3)

              =0.8*0.25*0.98

The equation of the line that passes through the x-intercept ( -2,0 ) and y-intercept ( 0,1 ) is y = (1/2)x + 1.

What is the equation of line of the graph?

The formula for equation of line is expressed as;

y = mx + b

Where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

From the graph, the x and y-intercept are; ( -2,0) and (0,1 )

Point 1 ( -2,0 )

x₁ = -2y₁ = 0

Point 2( 0,1 )

x₂ = 0y₂ = 1

First, we determine the slope of the line.

Slope m = y₂ - y₁ / x₂ - x₁

Slope m = 1 - 0 / 0 - (-2)

Slope m = 1 / 0 +2

Slope m = 1/2

Next, determine the y-intercept b by substituting the slope and a point into the equation of line formula.

y = mx + b

0 = (1/2)(-2) + b

0 = -2/2 + b

0 = -1 + b

b = 1

Now that the values of slope m and y-intercept b is known, plug these into y = mx + b to determine the equation of the line.

y = mx + b

y = (1/2)x + 1

Therefore, the equation of the line is y = (1/2)x + 1.

A line segment is simply the part of a line that connects two points or is bounded by two points.

Given the data in the question;

Point M is on line segment LNSegment LN = 4xSegment MN = xSegment LM = 3Numerical length of segment LN = ?

Since point M is on line segment LN, segment LN equals to the sum of segment LM and MN.

closed circles are at negative 2 and positive 8. everything between the points is shaded.

We have the equation:

|h - 3| [tex]\leq[/tex] 5

Remember that the equation:

|f(x)| = A

with A > 0

means that:

f(x) = A

or

f(x) = -A

|h - 3| [tex]\leq[/tex] 5

as:

(h - 3) [tex]\leq[/tex] 5

The length of the rectangle is 5 more than twice the width. If the perimeter is 10 times that of the width, what is the width, length, and perimeter of the rectangle?

Answers

Width of the rectangle is 2.5, Length is 10 and perimeter is 25

Given

Length of rectangle is 5 greater than double of width

let us say width = w

According to the question length L = 5 + 2w

Perimeter is 10 times the width

P= 10w

we know that perimeter of a rectangle is 2(L+W)

Substituting the values in the formula we get

10w = 2(5+2w + w)

10w = 10 + 6w

w= 2.5

From this length L = 5+2(2.5)

                            L = 10

Perimeter P = 10W

P= 10(2.5)

P= 25

Hence the length is 10, width is 2.5 and perimeter is 25
