Mr. Jackson is ready to empty his backyard swimming pool for the winter. He knows that the time, T, required to empty the pool varies inversely as the rate, R, of pumping. Mr. Jackson's old pump could empty the pool in 55 minutes, pumping at a rate of 200 gallons per minute. This year he has a new pump which pumps at a rate of 325 gallons per minute. How long will it take to empty the pool this season? Round your answer to the nearest minute. DUE IN 2 HOURS, 15 POINTS, WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST.

Mr. Jackson Is Ready To Empty His Backyard Swimming Pool For The Winter. He Knows That The Time, T, Required

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

34 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that T varies inversely as R then the equation relating them is

T = [tex]\frac{k}{R}[/tex] ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition

T = 55 when R = 200, that is

55 = [tex]\frac{k}{200}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 200 )

11000 = k, thus

T = [tex]\frac{11000}{R}[/tex] ← equation of variation

When R = 325, then

T = [tex]\frac{11000}{325}[/tex] ≈ 34 minutes ( to the nearest minute )

Answer 2

Answer:

Option 2

Step-by-step explanation:

An inverse variation can be represented by the equation xy=k or y=kx .

If (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are solutions of an inverse variation, then x1y1=k and x2y2=k

Substitute x1y1 for k

x1y1=x2y2   or x1x2=y2y1

The equation x1y1=x2y2 is called the product rule for inverse variations.

Let x be the time required, and y the rate of pumping.

x1 = 55min  y1 = 200gal/min

x2 = Unknown y2 = 325gal/min

(55)(200) = x2(325)

11,000 = x2 (325)

11,000/325 = x2

33.84 = x2

34 minutes

A ship travels a distance of 200 nautical miles in 10 1/2 hours. how many knots did the ship average each hour? (One knot equals 1 nautical mile per hour) Provide explination please

Answers

Answer:

19.05 knots average per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance traveled = 200 nautical miles

Time taken = [tex]10\frac{1}{2}[/tex]  hours = [tex]\frac{10\times2+1}2=\frac{21}{2}[/tex] hours

To find:

How many knots did the ship average each hour ?

Solution:

Here, we are given the distance traveled and total time taken to travel the distance.

As per question statement, we have to find the average speed of the ship.

Formula for average speed is given as:

[tex]\text{Average Speed = }\dfrac{\text{Total Distance traveled}}{\text{Total Time Taken}}[/tex]

Putting the values in the formula:

[tex]\Rightarrow \text{Average Speed = }\dfrac{200}{\frac{21}{2}}\\\Rightarrow \text{Average Speed = }\dfrac{200\times 2}{21}\\\Rightarrow \text{Average Speed = }\dfrac{400}{21}\\\Rightarrow \text{\bold{Average Speed = 19.05 nautical miles per hour}}[/tex]

It is also given that 1 nautical mile per hours is equal to one know.

Therefore, the average speed can be written as:

19.05 knots average per hour

A line passes through the points (2,3) and (6,y) with a slope of 2. What is the value of y?

Answers

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line is always rise over run.

We need to make the rise over run equivalent to 2 to find the value of y.

Looking at the x-coordinates, 2 and 6, we can see there is an increase in 4.

Now we ask: What number, times 2, will equal 4?

That is 2.

So we have to make the increase in the y coordinates 2.

If we have the original point 3, an increase in 2 is 5.

So y is 5.

Hope this helped!

Answer:

11 = y

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the slope formula

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

2 = (y-3)/(6-2)

2 = (y-3)/4

Multiply each side by 4

2*4 = y-3

8 = y-3

Add 3  to each side

8+3 = y-3+3

11 = y

When a problem involves more than one unit for a characteristic (such as length), now can you tell which unit is more appropriate to report the answer in?

Answers

Answer:

For larger measurements, we use larger unit while for smaller measurement we use smaller unit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normally, For larger distances we make use of larger units while for smaller distances we make use of smaller units.

For example, if we consider the distance travelled by a person in some days;

For 15000 units distance; We can represent this value as 15 Kilometers

For 800 units distance; Rather than using kilometers, it would be better to represent it in meters as 8 meters.

Also, For 70 units distance; Instead of kilometers or meters, 70 cm would be a better unit of representation.

Likewise, If we consider some 3 dimensional shapes holding some substances,

For 7000 units, best unit of weight representation would be 7 Kg

For 600 units, instead of in kg, best unit of weight representation would be 600 grams

For 50 units, best unit of weight representation would be 50 grams

So, looking at the examples given in both weight and distances, we will conclude that for larger measurements, we use larger unit while for smaller measurement we use smaller unit.

Star A is 5.23\times10^75.23×10 7 light years away from Earth, while Star B is 7.1\times10^57.1×10 5 light years away. Which star is closer to Earth?

Answers

Answer:

Star B

Step-by-step explanation:

If Star A is 5.23*10^7 light years away from earth, and star B is 7.1*10^5 light years away from earth, then the closest Star to earth is Star B.

this is because a light year is 9.461*10^15 m away, if we multiply this, then Star A is 4.948*10^23 m away from earth, and Star B is 6.717*10^21 m away from earth, and this makes it closer when compared to Star A.

a = 6YZ = 38

Step-by-step explanation:

The segment addition theorem tells you ...

  XY +YZ = XZ

  4a = 24 . . . . . . . . add 2-5a and simplify

  a = 6 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4

What is the solution to this system of equations?
x + 3y - z = 6
4x - 2y + 2z= -10
6x + z= -12

(an explanation would be great because i barely understand how to do this)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x=-3, y=5, z=6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Divide by 2 both sides in the second equation:

[tex]4x - 2y + 2z= -10[/tex] [tex]2x - y + z= -5[/tex]

2. From the third equation find z in terms of x:

[tex]6x + z= -12[/tex] [tex]z= -6x-12[/tex]

3. Add up the first and new second equations and find y in terms of x:

[tex](x+2x)+(3y-y)+(-z+z)=6+(-5)[/tex] [tex]3x+2y=1[/tex] [tex]2y=1-3x[/tex] [tex]y=0.5-1.5x[/tex]

4. Put new alternatives instead of y and z in the first equation:

[tex]x+3(0.5-1.5x)-(-6x-12)=6[/tex] [tex]x+1.5-4.5x+6x+12=6[/tex] [tex]2.5x=-7.5[/tex] [tex]x=-3[/tex]

5. Now we can easily find other two unknowns by using their equations by means of x:

[tex]y=0.5-1.5\times(-3)[/tex] [tex]y=0.5+4.5[/tex] [tex]y=5[/tex][tex]z=-6\times(-3)-12[/tex] [tex]z=18-12[/tex] [tex]z=6[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 6y - 2z = 12

12x - 6y + 6z = -30

14x + 4z = -18

6x + z = -12

14x + 4z = -18

-24x - 4z = 48

-10x = 30

x = -3

6(-3) + z = -12

-18 + z = -12

z = 6

-3 + 3y - 6 = 6

-9 + 3y = 6

3y = 15

y = 5

x = -3, y = 5, z = 6

Step 3: Combine like terms

Step 4: Add 67 on both sides

18x < 2x - 48

16x < -48

Step 6: Divide both sides by 16

x < -3

And we have our answer!

Answer:

x<-3

Step-by-step explanation:

5−9(8−2x)<2x−115

Use the distributive property to multiply −9 by 8−2x.

5−72+18x<2x−115

Subtract 72 from 5 to get −67.

−67+18x<2x−115

Subtract 2x from both sides.

−67+18x−2x<−115

Combine 18x and −2x to get 16x.

−67+16x<−115

Add 67 to both sides.

16x<−115+67

Add −115 and 67 to get −48.

16x<−48

Divide both sides by 16. Since 16 is >0, the inequality direction remains the same.

The estimate would be 3-0= nothing​, so her answer is not reasonable. D. The estimate would be 3-0= nothing​, so her answer is reasonable.

Answers

Answer:

The estimate would be 3-0= nothing​, so her answer is not reasonable.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression written by Elizabeth as  3.3 - 0.21= 1.2, to check if Elizabeth expression is reasonable or not, we need to check if her answer is close to or equal to the answer of the diiferebce between 3.3 - 0.21.

Converting 3.3 and 0.21 to fraction

3.3 = 33/10

0.21 = 21/100

Taking the difference of both fractions

[tex]= \dfrac{33}{10} -\dfrac{21}{100} \\\\= \dfrac{330-21}{100} \\\\= \dfrac{309}{100} \\\\= 3.09\\[/tex]

Hence 3.3 - 0.21 = 3.09 ≈ 3.0 (to nearest whole number). Comparing Elizabeth answer which is 1.2 to the answer f=gotten, it can be seen that her answer is far from the right answer with a difference of about 1.8 (3.0-1.2). This large difference makes Elizabeth answer unreasonable.

D.

The estimate would be 30
