Two large and 1 small pumps can fill a swimming pool in 4 hours. One large and 3 small pumps can also fill the same swimming pool in 4 hours. How many hours will it take 4 large and 4 small pumps to fill the swimming pool.(We assume that all large pumps are similar and all small pumps are also similar.)

if u get this right i will mark brainliest

Answers

Answer 1

Let x and y be the unit rates at which one large pump and one small pump works, respectively.

Two large/one small operate at a unit rate of

(1 pool)/(4 hours) = 0.25 pool/hour

so that

2x + y = 0.25

One large/three small operate at the same rate,

(1 pool)/(4 hours) = 0.25 pool/hour

x + 3y = 0.25

Solve for x and y. We have

y = 0.25 - 2x   ==>   x + 3 (0.25 - 2x) = 0.25

==>   x + 0.75 - 6x = 0.25

==>   5x = 0.5

==>   x = 0.1

==>   y = 0.25 - 2 (0.1) = 0.25 - 0.2 = 0.05

In other words, one large pump alone can fill a 1/10 of a pool in one hour, while one small pump alone can fill 1/20 of a pool in one hour.

Now, if you have four each of the large and small pumps, they will work at a rate of

4x + 4y = 4 (0.1) + 4 (0.05) = 0.6

meaning they can fill 3/5 of a pool in one hour. If it takes time t to fill one pool, we have

(3/5 pool/hour) (t hours) = 1 pool

==>   t = (1 pool) / (3/5 pool/hour) = 5/3 hours

So it would take 5/3 hours, or 100 minutes, for this arrangement of pumps to fill one pool.

In the first quadrant, you start at 2, 6 and move 2units rights and 3 units down what point will you end up on?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]End = (4, 9)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Start = (2,6)[/tex]

Transformation: 2 units right and 3 units down

Required

The new point

First, we take the right translation;

When a point is translated right by 2 units, the rule is:

[tex](x,y) \to (x + 2, y)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex](2,6) \to (2 + 2, 6)[/tex]

[tex](2,6) \to (4, 6)[/tex]

Next, we take the down translation;

When a point is translated down by 3 units, the rule is:

[tex](x,y) \to (x, y + 3)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex](4,6) \to (4, 6+3)[/tex]

[tex](4,6) \to (4, 9)[/tex]

Hence, the endpoint is:

[tex]End = (4, 9)[/tex]

Find the area of the regular polygon. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The central angle of a hexagon is 60 degrees. Drop a line from the center to the middle of the side marked 7.

Use the  tan of the angle so formed (which is 30 degrees)

Tan(30)= opposite / height (which is the line you just drew).

Tan(30) = 3.5 / h

Tan(30) = 0.5774

Tan(30) = 3.5 / h                multiply both sides by h

h*Tan(30) = 3.5                  Divide by tan30

h = 3.5 / Tan(30)

h = 3.5 / 0.5774

h = 6.062

Now from both ends of the given side, draw 2 lines to the center. Find the area of that triangle.

Area of 1 triangle = 1/2 * b * h

area of 1 triangle = 1/2 * 7 * 6.062

Area of 1 triangle = 21.2176

There are 6 such triangles so multiply that number by 6

Answer:  6 * 21.2176

Find the accumulated value of an investment of $10,000 for 7 years at an interest rate of 5.5% if the money is a. Compounded semiannually;b. Compounded quarterly; c. Compounded monthly; d. Compounded continuously

Answers

Answer:

Results are below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Annual interest rate (i)= 0.055

Initial investment (PV)= $10,000

Number of years (n)= 7

To calculate the future value (FV), we need to use the following formula (except in d):

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

a.

Semiannual interest rate= 0.055/2= 0.0275

Number of semesters= 7*2= 14

FV= 10,000*(1.0275^14)

FV= $14,619.94

b.

Quarterly rate= 0.055/4= 0.01375

Number of quarters= 7*4= 28

FV= 10,000*(1.01375^28)

FV= $14,657.65

c.

Monthly interest rate= 0.055/12= 0.0045833

Number of months= 7*12= 84

FV= 10,000*(1.0045833^84)

FV= $14,683.18

d.

To calculate the future value using continuous compounding, we need to use the following formula:

FV= PV*e^(n*i)

FV= 10,000*e^(7*0.055)

FV= $14,696.14

Cảm ơn vì giúp đỡ

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is asking us to find where sin(2x + 30) has a sin of 1. If you look at the unit circle, 90 degrees has a sin of 1. Mathematically, it will be solved like this (begin by taking the inverse sin of both sides):

[tex]sin^{-1}[sin(2x+30)]=sin^{-1}(1)[/tex]

On the left, the inverse sin "undoes" or cancels the sin, leaving us with

2x + 30 = sin⁻¹(1)

The right side is asking us what angle has a sin of 1, which is 90. Sub that into the right side:

2x + 30 = 90 and

2x = 60 so

x = 30

What is the volume of the rectangular prism?

Answers

Answer:

94.5 yd^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectangular prism is given by the formula:

A = lwh

Where:

l = length

w = width

h = height

Volume is how much space a 3d figure occupies.

USE THE FORMULA WITH THE GIVEN DIMENSIONS:

A = (7)(4.5)(3)

= (31.5)(3)

= 94.5

Volume is measured in cubic yards, in this case.

Therefore your answer is 94.5 yd^3

I hope I helped!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

length = 7 yd

Width = 4.5 yd

height = 3 yd

Volume of rectangular prism = length * width * height

                                                = 7 * 4.5 * 3 = 94.5 yd³

It takes 3 identical water pumps 8 hours to fill a pool. How long would it take 4 of
these same pumps to fill the pool?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 3 identical pumps working to fill a pool. If it takes them working  together 8 hours to fill the pool, the equation is:

[tex]\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{x}=\frac{1}{8}[/tex] and

[tex]\frac{3}{x}=\frac{1}{8}[/tex] . Cross multiply to get

x = 24, which is the number of hours it will take one pump to do the job all alone. If this be the case, and we have 4 pumps WORKING AT THE SAME TIME, filling the pool will be the number of hours it takes one pump divided by 4.

4 pumps can do the job in 6 hours.

ΔABC ~ ΔEDC [By AA property of similarity of two triangles]
