4. Kevin can clean a large aquarium tank in about 9 hours. When Kevin and Lara
work together, they can clean the tank in 6 hours. Write a rational equation that
could be used to determine how long it would take Lara to clean the tank if she
works by herself. You do not have to solve the equation. You may solve the
equation for extra credit.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Part A

The rational equation that can be used to determine how long it would take Lara to clean the tank alone is; 6/9 + 6/x = 1

Part B

It would take Lara 18 hours to clean the tank if she works by herself

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

The time it takes Kevin to clean an aquarium tank alone = 9 hours

The time it takes Kevin and Lara to clean the tank together = 6 hours

Let '1/x' represent Lara's cleaning rate, we have;

The time it would take Lara to clean 1 tank alone = 1/(1/x) = x

Kevin's cleaning rate, y = 1/9 tank per hour

The number of tanks, z =  tank

The total time it takes both of them to clean the tank, t = 6 hours

Therefore, we get;

t × y + t × 1/x = z

When t = 6, y = 1/9, and z = 1, we get;

6 × (1/9) + 6·(1/x) = 1

Therefore, the rational equation that can be used to determine how long it would take Lara to clean the tank if she work by herself, '1/x', is given as follows;

6/9 + 6·(1/x) = 1

6/9 + 6/x = 1

Part B

Solving the rational equation gives;

1/x = (1 - 6/9)/6 = 1/18

∴ 1/x = 1/18)

∴ x = 18

The time it would take Lara to clean the tank if she worked by herself, x = 18 hours

Have a great day, be safe and healthy

Thank u

Answer:

y = - 2x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - 2 , then

y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 2, - 4) into the partial equation

- 4 = 4 + c ⇒ c = - 4 - 4 = - 8

y = - 2x - 8 ← equation of line

Equal chords are equidistant from the center of the circle.

So,

4x = 6 + 6

4x = 12

x = 12/4

x = 3

LP = LK/2 ( Perpendicular dropped from the center of the circle to the chord bisects the chord)

In a group of 100 students, 60 are freshman, 55 are female, and 22 are female freshman. Find the probability that a student picked from this group at random is either a freshman or female

Answers

Answer:

93/100

Step-by-step explanation:

In a group of 100 students, 60 are freshman, 55 are female, and 22 are female freshman. Find the probability that a student picked from this group at random is either a freshman or female

Number of Freshman = 60

Number of female = 55

Number of Freshman female 22

Total number of students = 100

The probability that a student picked from this group at random is either a freshman or female

Thus P(freshman or female) = 60/100 + 55/100 - 22/100 = 93/100

What is a trigonometric function?

The fundamental 6 functions of trigonometry have a range of numbers as their result and a domain input value that is the angle of a right triangle.

The trigonometric function is only valid for the right angle triangle and it is 6 functions which are given as sin cos tan cosec sec cot.

The trigonometric functions found in the four quadrants, as well as their graphs, domains, and differentiation and integration, will all be understood.

The trigonometric function is very good and useful in real-life problems related to the right-angle triangle.

Given that in triangle Y is 90° since in any triangle sum of all three angles will be 180° so remaining angle Z and Y will be total of 90° hence these will be complementary.

In right angle triangle sinX = cosZ because the perpendicular for X act like a base for Y.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not complete, but I would show how to solve a similar question.

Joy recorded the distances she walked each day for five days. How far did she walk in 5 days?

Solution:

We can see that Joy distance is recorded in the dot plot. From the dot plot, we can see that she walked 1/3 miles each day for three days, 1/2 miles for one day and 2/3 miles for one day. Therefore, to get the total distance walked, we just have to sum the individual distance that she walked each day. Hence the total distance is given as:

[tex]Total \ distance=\frac{1}{3} +\frac{1}{3} +\frac{1}{3}+ \frac{1}{2}+ \frac{2}{3} =\frac{13}{6}=2\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

The circumference of the hub cap of a tire is 73.79 centimeters. Find the area of this hub cap. Use 3.14 for π. Use pencil and paper. If the circumference of the hub cap were​ smaller, explain how this would change the area of the hub cap.
The area of this hub cap is about __ square centimeters.

Answers

Answer:

433.5 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for circumference is C = 2πr, where r is the radius.

Here, C = 2πr = 73.79 cm.  Solving this for the radius, r, we get:

     73.79 cm

r = ---------------- = 11.75 cm

        2(3.14)

Then the area of the hubcap is A = πr², or, in this case,

A = 3.14(11.75 cm)²  =  433.5 cm²

simple answer (and rounded for u) = 434 centimeters squared! hope it helps peeps

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of a rectangle is 2 inches less than three times its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 108 inches, find its length and width.

Answers

Answer:

the length is 40 inches

the width is 14 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by representation with variables

let l be the length and w the width

Length l is 2 inches less than 3 times width (3w)

l = 3w-2 ••••(i)

Mathematically,

we have the perimeter calculated as follows;

P = 2(l + w)

2(l + w) = 108

l + w = 108/2

l + w = 54 ••••••(ii)

Substitute equation i into ii

3w-2 + w = 54

4w = 54 + 2

4w = 56

w = 56/4

w = 14

Recall;

l + w = 54

14 + l = 54

l = 54-14

l = 40 inches
