The Lewis family and the Martin family each used their sprinklers last summer. The water output rate for the Lewis family's sprinkler was 30L per hour. The water output rate for the Martin family's sprinkler was 15L per hour. The families used their sprinklers for a combined total of 55 hours, resulting in a total water output of 1350L. How long was each sprinkler used

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Martin family: 20 hours

Lewis family: 35 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that the Lewis family sprinklers were out for L hours and the Martin family's sprinklers were out for M hours. We know that for each hour that the Lewis family sprinkler was on, 30L of water was put out. We can thus write the Lewis family sprinkler water output as 30L per each hour of L = 30 * L. Similarly, the Martin family sprinkler water output = 15 * M .

We know that the total hours for the sprinklers is 55, so L + M = 55. The total water output for the sprinklers is the sum of the sprinkler outputs, so 30 * L + 15 * M = 1350

L + M = 55

30 * L + 15 * M = 1350

One way to solve this would be to solve for L in the first equation and substitute that into the second

subtract M from both sides in the second equation

55 - M = L

30 * (55-M) + 15 * M = 1350

30 * 55 - 30 * M + 15 * M = 1350

1650 - 15M = 1350

subtract 1650 from both sides to isolate the M and its coefficient

-15M = -300

divide both sides by -15 to isolate M

M = 20

L = 55-20 = 35

The area under the standard normal curve to the right of z = -0.51 is 0.6950. What is the area to the left of z = 0.51?

Answers

Answer:

0.305

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that area under the standard normal curve to the right of z = -0.51 is 0.6950

Thus, to get the area to the left, we just subtract 0.6950 from 1.

Thus;

area to the left of z = 0.51 is;

P( z < 0.51) = 1 - 0.6950 = 0.305

Find the missing length the triangles are similar.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing length is 13 because,

Lets say the top triangle is A and the bottom triangle is B.

Triangle A gives us the side GF, and Triangle B gives us the sides TU and ST. Since the triangles are similar(as stated in the problem), we can pair 2 sides GF(A) and TU(B) which is 11:22.(one way I usually figure which sides are similar is by first- matching the hypotenuse, then checking which of the remaining two is longer.. if that made any sense). You can see that their relationship is x2 or /2 (In another word, from A to B is multiplication- ex: 11 * 2 is 22, and from B to A is division- ex 22/2 is 11.) Since the missing number is the hypotenuse of triangle A and you know the Hypotenuse of triangle B all you have to do is divide side TS by 2 to get side SF. So the missing side is 13.

This year, a small business had a total revenue of $42,900 . If this is 35% less than their total revenue the previous year, what was their total revenue the previous year?

Answers

if this value 35% less than the total, we conclude that:

42,900 = 65%

1% = 660

100% = 66,000

if you want to check the value, just do 65% of 66000, which equals to 42,900

after allowing 20% discount an article is sold for rs.672 levying 12% VAT, find its market price​

Answers

The market price is Rs. 750 which was obtained by creating a mathematical relationship from the given parameters.

PERCENTAGE DISCOUNT = 20%

VAT LEVIED= 12%

PRICE SOLD = 672

Let the MARKET PRICE = m

Hence,

market price * (1 - discount) * (1 + VAT) = price sold

m * (1 - 20%) * (1 + 12%) = 672

m * (1 - 0.2) * (1 + 0.12) = 672

m * 0.8 * 1.12 = 672

0.896m = 672

m = 672 / 0.896

m = Rs. 750
