Here is a problem from way back from my bro's math (elementary)3 cats eat 3 cats in 3 minutes
how long does it take for 100 cats to eat 100 fish?

show all work




(hint: answer is not 100 minutes, and if you answer 100 minutes you are wrong and will be reported)

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: 3 cats -------------- 3  fish -------------3 minutes
100 cats------------100 fish -----------  x

The cats and fish are variables directly proportional, the cats and the time are varibles inversely proportional,
Therefore, 

3 cats * 100 fish * x=100 cats * 3 fish * 3 minutes
x=(100 cats * 3 fish * 3 minutes) / (3 cats * 100 fish)
x=3 minutes.

Answer: the time will be 3 minutes.

A pool can be filled to 15,000 gallons of water. It takes 9 gallons per minute to fill the pool. How much minutes does it take to fill the pool?

Answers

Answer:

1666.7 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how many minutes it takes to fill the pool, you can use the formula:

Time (minutes) = Total volume / Flow rate

In this case, the total volume of the pool is 15,000 gallons, and the flow rate is 9 gallons per minute.

Time (minutes) = 15,000 gallons / 9 gallons per minute

Time (minutes) = 1,666.67 minutes (rounded to two decimal places)

So, it takes approximately 1,666.67 minutes to fill the pool.

(4x − 1 )/5 = 2x + 1

Answers

Answer:

x = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

(4x-1)/(5) = 2x + 1 ( multiply both sides by 5 to clear the fraction )

4x - 1 = 5(2x + 1) ← distribute parenthesis

4x - 1 = 10x + 5 ( subtract 10x from both sides )

- 6x - 1 = 5 ( add 1 to both sides )

- 6x = 6 ( divide both sides by - 6 )

x = - 1

1) multiply 5 with right side
4x-1=10x+5
2) take 4x to right side n 5 to left
-5-1=10x-4x
-6=6x
x=-1

Which shows 522 − 482 being evaluated using the difference of perfect squares method?522 − 482 = (2704 + 2304)(2704 − 2304) = 2,003,200

522 − 482 = (52 + 48)(52 − 48) = (100)(4) = 400

522 − 482 = 2704 − 2304 = 400

522 − 482 = (52 − 48)2 = (4)2 = 16

Answers

52² − 48² = (2704 + 2304)(2704 − 2304) = 2,003,200

52² − 48² = (52 + 48)(52 − 48) = 100 * 4 = 400
a² - b² = (a +b)*(a-b) 

52² − 48² = 2704 − 2304 = 400 

52² − 48² = (52 − 48)² = (4)² = 16

The optionsecond 52² − 48² = (52 + 48)(52 − 48) = (100)(4) = 400 is the correct.

What is an arithmetic operation?

It is defined as the operation in which we do the addition of numbers, subtraction, multiplication, and division. It has a basic four operators that is +, -, ×, and ÷.

We know,

a² - b² = (a + b)(a - b)

We have:

= 52² − 48²

After using the above identity, we get:

= (52 + 48)(52 - 48)

= (100)(4)

= 400

Thus, the optionsecond 52² − 48² = (52 + 48)(52 − 48) = (100)(4) = 400 is the correct.
