A barrel contains 56 litres of kerosene. It has two taps. One tap draws 500 ml every 6 minutes. After first 5 litres are drawn from the barrel, the second tap also starts. It draws 1 litre in every 5 minutes. How many hours will be taken in all to empty the tank?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The tank will empty in 4 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a barrel contains 56 liters of kerosene, and it has two taps, one tap that draws 500 ml every 6 minutes and after first 5 liters are drawn from the barrel, the second tap also starts, and it draws 1 liter in every 5 minutes, to determine how many hours will be taken in all to empty the tank, the following calculation must be performed:

0.5 x X = 5

X = 5 / 0.5

X = 10

10 x 6 = 60

1 hour = 51 liters

1 hour 30 minutes = 51 - (1 x 6) - (0.5 x 5) = 42.5

2 hours = 42.5 - (1 x 6) - (0.5 x 5) = 34

2 hours 30 minutes = 34 - (1 x 6) - (0.5 x 5) = 25.5

3 hours = 25.5 - (1 x 6) - (0.5 x 5) = 17

3 hours 30 minutes = 17 - (1 x 6) - (0.5 x 5) = 8.5

4 hours = 8.5 - (1 x 6) - (0.5 x 5) = 0

Therefore, the tank will empty in 4 hours.

Gun rights vs. gun control: In a December 2014 report, "For the first time in more than two decades of Pew Research Center surveys, there is more support for gun rights than gun control." According to a Pew Research survey, 52% of Americans say that protecting gun rights is more important than controlling gun ownership. Gun rights advocates in a conservative city believe that the percentage is higher among city residents.
They survey 200 city residents and find that 130 say that protecting gun rights is more important than controlling gun ownership. What is the test statistic?
Z = -3.68
Z = 3.68
Z = -3.85
Z = 3.85

Answers

Answer:

The right answer is "z = 3.68".

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

p = 52%

or,

  = 0.52

n = 200

[tex]\hat{p}= \frac{130}{200}[/tex]

  [tex]= 0.65[/tex]

Now

The test statistic will be:

⇒  [tex]z=\frac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n} } }[/tex]

On substituting all the given values, we get

⇒     [tex]=\frac{0.65-0.52}{\sqrt{\frac{0.52(1-0.52)}{200} } }[/tex]

⇒      [tex]=\frac{0.13}\sqrt{{\frac{0.52\times 0.48}{200} }}[/tex]

⇒      [tex]=\frac{0.13}{\sqrt{0.001248} }[/tex]

⇒      [tex]=3.68[/tex]

m∡ZA = 51°

m∡ZB = 39°

Step-by-step explanation:

∡ZB = 'b'

∡ZA = '12 + b'

Answers

Answer:

40 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean Theorem

a² + b² = c²

Subtract 81 from both sides

a² = 1600

Take the square root of both sides

his house to bus station?

Fill out the information in the table for your convenience. Write the
equation. Solve. Show your work. Check your work

Answers

Answer:

26 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert 20 min to hrs: 20/60 = 1/3 hr

:

Let t = time on the bike

then

t-(1/3) = time on the bus

:

Write a dist equation Dist = speed * time:

:

Bike dist + bus dist = 26 mi

 

6t + 30[t-(1/3)] = 26

:

6t + 30t - 10 = 26

36t = 26 + 10

36t = 36

t = 1 hr on the bike

:

6 mph for 1 h = 6 mi from house to the bus station

:

Check solution by finding the distance

6(1) + 30(2/3) =
