A certain pipe can be used to fill a pool with water in 2 hours. A second pipe can be used to fill the pool in 4 hours. How long does it take to fill the pool when both pipes are used at the same time?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1 1/3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Pipe 1 alone:

fills the pool in 2 hours

in 1 hour, it fills 1/2 of the pool

Pipe 2 alone:

fills the pool in 4 hours

in 1 hour, it fills 1/4 of the pool

Pipe 1 and Pipe 2 working together:

fill the pool in x hours

in 1 hour, they fill 1/x of the pool

Working together, in 1 hour the two pipes fill 1/2 + 1/4 of the pool.

Working together, in 1 hour the two pipes fill 1/x of the pool.

Therefore,

1/2 + 1/4 = 1/x

2/4 + 1/4 = 1/x

3/4 = 1/x

x = 4/3

x = 1 1/3

Answer: 1 1/3 hours

Find the smallest value of m such that the LCM of m and 34 is 374.

Answers

Answer:

11

first you use a number tree

34 374

/\ /\

2 17 2 187

/\

11 17

express the numbers in prime factors

374=2×11×17

34 =2×17

in finding LCM you use the highest prime factors in this case the highest prime factors are 2, 11 and 17

So m factors are 2 and 11

which means m is 2×11=22

22 in its smallest form is 11

17. Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line perpendicular to y = 3x - 9 that passes through the point (9,-9). Explain how you got your answer.

Answers

Answer:

y=-1/3x-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative and reciprocal; if you multiply them together, the result is -1

so, to find the slope of the new line:

3m=-1

divide by 3

m=-1/3

the slope of the new line is -1/3

Slope-intercept form is written as y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

Here's our equation so far:

y=-1/3x+b

since the line passes through the point (9,-9), we can use it to solve for b

substitute into the equation:

-9=-1/3(9)+b

-9=-3+b

-6=b

b is -6

here's our equation

y=-1/3x-6

substitution 2x - 3y + = -45, x + 6y = 45

Answers

Answer:

y = 9

x = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 3y + = -45

x + 6y = 45,   x = 45 - 6y

substitute for x:

2(45 - 6y) - 3y = -45

90 - 12y - 3y = -45

combine like terms:

90 - 15y = -45

15y = 135

divide both sides of the equation by 15:

y = 9

x = 45 - 6(9) = -9

*also pls look at both images :)*

Answers

Answer:

First image: (6, -1)

2nd image: y = 63

Explanation:

1)

2x + y = 11

1/2x - 5y = 8

y = -2x + 11

1/2x - 5(-2x + 11) = 8

1/2x + 10x - 55 = 8

10.5x - 55 = 8

10.5x = 63

x = 6

2x + y = 11

2(6) + y = 11

12 + y = 11

y = -1

(x , y) = (6, -1)

2)

1/4(8y - 4.8) = 2 (0.9y + 5.4) + 3/5

2y - 1.2 = 1.8y + 10.8 + 0.6

0.2y - 1.2 = 11.4

0.2y = 12.6

y = 63

[tex]\text{note:explanation is a must}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

θ = [tex]\frac{\pi }{3}[/tex] (60° )

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the identity

sin²x + cos²x = 1 ⇒ sin²x = 1 - cos²x

Given

cos²θ - sin²θ = 2 - 5cosθ

cos²θ - (1 - cos²θ) = 2 - 5cosθ

cos²θ - 1 + cos²θ = 2 - 5cosθ

2cos²θ - 1 = 2 - 5cosθ ( subtract 2 - 5cosθ from both sides )

2cos²θ + 5cosθ - 3 = 0 ← in standard form

(cosθ + 3)(2cosθ - 1) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for θ

cosθ + 3 = 0

cosθ = - 3 ← not possible as - 1 ≤ cosθ  ≤ 1

2cosθ - 1 = 0

cosθ = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] , so

θ = [tex]cos^{-1}[/tex] ([tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] ) = [tex]\frac{\pi }{3}[/tex] ( or 60° )
