2. A faucet for a 30-gallon bathtub fills at a rate of 3 gallons per minute.If the drain lets water out at 1.5 gallons per minute, how long would it
take for the tub to overflow if both the faucet and drain were open at the
same time?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

Knowing that it is a 30-gallon bathtub.

And it fills at a rate of 3 gallons per minute.

But also drains 1.5 gallons per minute.

So this is for the first minute.

3 - 1.5 = 1.5

So there will be 1.5 gallons of water in the tub after the first minute.

Now do,

30 ÷ 1.5 = 20

It will take 20 full minutes for the bathtub to fill up.

Answers

Answer:

The sales account for year 3 is [\frac{32\ \text{mn}-x\ \text{mn}}{x\ \text{mn}}* 100\%].

Step-by-step explanation:

As the sales for year 2 is not provided, assume it is x million.

The total sales in year 3 is, 32 million.

Compute the sales account for year 3 as follows:

\text{Percentage of sales for year 3}=\frac{\text{Total Sales in year 3}-\text{Total Sales in year 2}}{\text{Total Sales in year 2}}* 100\%

                                              =\frac{32\ \text{mn}-x\ \text{mn}}{x\ \text{mn}}* 100\%
