let the time taken to be filled by both pipes be y
1/2 +1/8=1/y
(4+1)/8=1/y
5/8=y
cross multiplying
5y=8
y=8/5
=1.6hrs
Answer:
(y1-y2)/(x1-x2)
Step-by-step explanation:
if you have two points from the graph then you can use them to find the slope, for example:
(2,3) and (0,5)
you would take the first point and put it in a fraction (and the second point) but the x goes on the bottom and the y goes on the top:
3/2 and 5/0
Next you put them together minusing one of the equations, but make sure that the two coordinates line up (it doesn't matter which one, in the order):
3-5/2-0
Then you solve:
-2/2
-1
which means that -1 is the slope for this
(the "/" is a fraction bar, in case you didn't already know that)
Answer :
15 ( theres 15 pickles so you can serve a pickle 15 times )
Answer:
The new amount is 8.
Step-by-step explanation:
80% of 40 is 32, so subtract 32 from 40 to get 8.
