tap A fills a tank in 6 hours tap B fills it in 8 hours and tap C empties it in 10 hours. starting with an empty tank and all the three taps are opened find how long it takes to fill the tank?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

It will take 5 hours and 5 minutes to fill the tank

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the time taken to fill the tap

Let us have the rate per hour

A fills in 6 hours; so the fraction filled in an hour is 1/6

B fills in 8 hours, so the fraction filled in an hour is 1/8

C empties in 10 hours, so the fraction removed per hour is 1/10

So factoring the supply and removal, where removal is on a negative basis

we have it that in an hour, the fraction retained is;

1/6 + 1/8 - 1/10

= (20 + 15 - 12)/120

= 23/120

So this is the fraction retained per hour

The number of hours it will take to have a whole is simply the reciprocal of this fraction

That would simply be 120/23 = 5 5/23

5 hours and 5 minutes

We have a parallelogram, and we want to identify two segments that are parallel. then LO is parallel to MN.

What is the congruent triangle?

Two triangles are said to be congruent if the length of the sides is equal, a measure of the angles are equal and they can be superimposed.

Here We can see that ON is parallel to LM and LO is parallel to MN

Because this is a parallelogram  as we know this because there is a 90° angle at N, the opposite sides are parallel.

So from this, we can conclude that sides ON and LM are opposite, then ON is parallel to LM

With the same reasoning, LO is parallel to MN.

E and F are complementary, therefore add to 90°

m∠F = 90° - 60° = 30°

PLEASE HELP WILL MARK BRAINLEST!

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing to do is convert to a common denominator.  

So 1/2 =4/8. That means the vendor sold 4/8+3/8=7/8 of its hot dogs. 280 = 7/8. Now if you divide 280 by 7, you get 1/8 (answer = 40). The vendor sold 7/8 and 1/8 was left, which = 40. 8/8 would be 280 + 40 = 320.

If I cut a cake into equal parts and one slice = 3.333, where would I find the 0.001?​ (total of slices = 10)

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

That is so because 1/3 is *not exactly equal to* 0.333333

0.333333 is an approximation of 1/3 which is correct to 6 decimal places.

So 0.333333 x 3 = 0.999999 which is approximately equal to 1.

If you want to be more accurate, you could write the fraction 1/3 everywhere and not write it in floating point form.

1/3 in floating point format will be 0.333333333…..and so on with infinite decimal places. This is because when you try to divide 1 by 3, you get a nonterminating recurring number after decimal point.

Its usually represented by a bar or dot on top of the recurring part

Ex. 1/3 = 0.3bar

(Sorry I can't get the bar on 3 by typing from keyboard)

But let's just say 0.3 bar is 0.333333…and so on to infinity.

When you multiply 0.3bar x 3 you get 0.9bar

= 0.999999….and so on to infinity.

These decimal point figures just a very great approximations of the fraction 1/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a straight line, it has to be 180 degrees in total.

Solve x+35+4x=180.

Add the similar numbers. (5x+35=180)

Subtract 35 to 180 (145)

Solve for this by divding 145 by 5: 5x=145

145/5 = 29

So, x = 29.

(To check your answer, subsitute it in. 4x29 = 116. 29+35=64. Add both numbers together, making it equal to 180.)

help please!! i need this last one to finish!!!! 44 points!!

Answers

Answer:

The point is at about (4.5, 100).

Step-by-step explanation:

Minka's line is p = 22t, which has a y-intercept of 0.

Kenji's line is p = 50 + 11t, which has a y-intercept of 50.

Find the line with y-intercept at 0 and the line with y-intercept at 50. Follow the two lines until they intersect. The point of intersection is about (4.5, 100).

You can find this point by setting the two equations equal to each other:

22t = 50 + 11t

Subtract 11t from both sides.

11t = 50

t = 50/11 ≈ 4.545

Then you can find the p value for this point by plugging t = 4.545 into either equation.

p = 22(4.545) = 99.99

p = 50 + 11(4.545) = 99.995

On the graph the point is about (4.5, 100).

In 2010, Cornfield Farms produced 175,000 bushels of corn. Each year since 2010, their total corn harvest has increased by 2.5% over the previous year.

Write an exponential function, f(x), that models the number of bushels of corn produced x years after 2010.

Enter your answer by filling in the boxes.

f(x)= · ( )x

Answers

Answer:

f(x)=(2.5)x

Step-by-step explanation:

x equals the number of years after 2010, and every year after 2010 their total corn harvest increases by 2.5%, so you would have 2.5 multiplied by however many years after 2010 it is

The exponential function f(x) that models the number of bushels of corn produced x years after 2010 is f(x) = 175000(1.025)^x

How to calculate compound interest's amount?

If the initial amount (also called as principal amount) is P, and the interest rate is R% per unit time, and it is left for T unit of time for that compound interest, then the interest amount earned is given by:

[tex]CI = P(1 +\dfrac{R}{100})^T - P[/tex]

The final amount becomes:

[tex]A = CI + P\\A = P(1 +\dfrac{R}{100})^T[/tex]

We can use compound interest formula whenever there is compounding (increment or decrement) per unit time.

Here, the initial amount of  production farm was doing in 2010 is 175000 bushels of corn.

This value increases by 2.5% per year.

We need the final number of bushels of corn that will be produce x years after 2010.

So, here, we can take P = 175000, R = 2.5, and T = x

Then, we get:

[tex]f(x) = A = 175000\left(1 + \dfrac{2.5}{100}\right)^x\\\\f(x) = 175000(1.025)^x[/tex]

Thus, the exponential function f(x) that models the number of bushels of corn produced x years after 2010 is [tex]f(x) = 175000(1.025)^x[/tex]
