Jada walks up to a tank of water that can hold up to 12 gallons. When it is active, a drain empties water from the tank at a constant rate. When Jada first sees the tank, it contains 8 gallons of water. Four minutes later, the tank contains 5 gallons of water.

A) At what rate is the amount of water in the tank changing? Use a signed number, and include the unit of measurement in your answer.

B) How many more minutes will it take for the tank to drain completely? Explain or show your reasoning.

C) How many minutes before Jada arrived was the water tank completely full? Explain or show your reasoning.

Answers

Answer 1
1) Gallons per minute change is -2/3 gallons per minute since it decreases by 2 gallons in 3 minutes

2) we have 5 gallons and lose 2/3 gallons per minute

(2/3 gal/minute)(x minutes) = 5 gallons
x = 5(3/2) = 15/2 = 7.5 minutes to drain the other 5 gallons

3) There was 10 gallons when the tank is full
That is 3 gallons more than the 7 gals there when Jada arrived.
(2/3)(x) = 3
x = 3(3/2) = 9/2 = 4 1/2 minutes

The tank was full 4 1/2 minutes before Jada arrived
Answer 2
1) Gallons per minute change is -2/3
gallons per minute since it decreases by 2
gallons in 3 minutes
2) we have 5 gallons and lose 2/3 gallons
per minute
(2/3 gal/minute) (x minutes) = 5 gallons
X=5(3/2) = 15/2 =7.5 minutes to drain the
other 5 gallons
3) There was 10 gallons when the tank is
full
That is 3 gallons more than the 7 gals
there when Jada arrived.
(2/3)(x) = 3
x=3(3/2) = 9/2 = 4 1/2 minutes
The tank was full 4 1/2 minutes before
Jada arrived

10 cups of magnesium
20 cups of Silver Oxide
How much Silver oxide water and potassium would be in 1 cup of the solution

Answers

it is 17

Step-by-step explanation:

ur wecom

Answer:

2/5 cups of silver oxide

1/10 cups of water

1/10 cups of potassium

Step-by-step explanation:

5+ 5 + 10 + 10+ 20 = 50

there are 50 total cups

now we must find the number to divide 50 by to get the 1 cup that we need

50 / 50 = 1

Now that we know what to divide by to get the quantities for 1 cup of solution, time to get the quantities

there are 20 cups of Silver oxide

20 / 50 = 2/5 cups

there are 5 cups of water

5 / 50 = 1/10 cups

there are 5 cups of potassium

5 / 50 = 1/10 cups

When a fraction equals zero :

5.1    When a fraction equals zero ...

Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.

Now,to get rid of the denominator, Tiger multiplys both sides of the equation by the denominator.

Here's how:

 5y-8x+3

 ——————— • 5 = 0 • 5

    5  

Now, on the left hand side, the  5  cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.

The equation now takes the shape :

  5y-8x+3  = 0

Equation of a Straight Line

5.2     Solve   5y-8x+3  = 0

Tiger recognizes that we have here an equation of a straight line. Such an equation is usually written y=mx+b ("y=mx+c" in the UK).

"y=mx+b" is the formula of a straight line drawn on Cartesian coordinate system in which "y" is the vertical axis and "x" the horizontal axis.

In this formula :

y tells us how far up the line goes

x tells us how far along

m is the Slope or Gradient i.e. how steep the line is

b is the Y-intercept i.e. where the line crosses the Y axis

The X and Y intercepts and the Slope are called the line properties. We shall now graph the line  5y-8x+3  = 0 and calculate its properties

Graph of a Straight Line :

 

Calculate the Y-Intercept :

Notice that when x = 0 the value of y is -3/5 so this line "cuts" the y axis at y=-0.60000

 y-intercept = -3/5  = -0.60000

Calculate the X-Intercept :

When y = 0 the value of x is 3/8 Our line therefore "cuts" the x axis at x= 0.37500

 x-intercept = 3/8  =  0.37500

Calculate the Slope :

Slope is defined as the change in y divided by the change in x. We note that for x=0, the value of y is -0.600 and for x=2.000, the value of y is 2.600. So, for a change of 2.000 in x (The change in x is sometimes referred to as "RUN") we get a change of 2.600 - (-0.600) = 3.200 in y. (The change in y is sometimes referred to as "RISE" and the Slope is m = RISE / R

Stephanie earned 8 points for every book she read over the summer. The equation y = 8x represents Stephanie's points based on the number of books she read.



Use the table and equation to complete the statements and find the number of books Stephanie read.

1. Stephanie earned 72 points. Did she read fewer than 2 books, between 2 and 5 books, between 5 and 6 books, or more than 7 books? Explain how you know.


2. The equation y = 8x gives the points, y, earned by reading x books.

Use this equation to find the number of books Stephanie read to earn 72 points. Show your work.

(here are the tables)(plz answer both and dont be greedy as * and say i d k and get pts!)

Answers

Answer: multiply 8 on all x number of books read

Step-by-step explanation:

1 is 8 because 8 × 1 is 8

2 is 16 because 8 × 2 is 16

3 is 24 because 8 × 3 is 24

4 is 32 because 8 × 4 is 32

5 is 40 because 8 × 5 is 40

6 is 48 because 8 × 6 is 48

7 is 56 because 8 × 7 is 56

8 is 64 because 8 × 8 is 64

9 is 72 because 8 × 9 is 72

10 is 80 because 8 × 10 is 80

1. If Stephanie had read fewer than 2 books, she would have earned less than 16 points.

2. Stephanie read 9 books to earn 72 points.

What is an equation?

The equation is defined as mathematical statements that have a minimum of two terms containing variables or numbers that are equal.

1. To determine the number of books Stephanie read, we can plug in the number of points she earned, which is 72, into the equation y = 8x and solve for x:

72 = 8x

Dividing both sides by 8, we get:

x = 9

So, Stephanie read 9 books to earn 72 points.

If Stephanie had read fewer than 2 books, she would have earned less than 16 points (since 8 points per book multiplied by 2 books is 16 points).

Similarly,

If Stephanie had read between 2 and 5 books, she would have earned between 16 and 40 points.

If Stephanie had read between 5 and 6 books, she would have earned between 40 and 48 points.

If Stephanie had read more than 7 books, she would have earned more than 56 points.

2. The given equation is as follows:

y = 8x

Substitute the value of y = 72 in the equation,

72 = 8x

Dividing both sides by 8, we get:

x = 9

Therefore, Stephanie read 9 books to earn 72 points.
