Anew type of pump can drain a certain pool in
10
hours. an older pump can drain the pool in
15
hours. how long will it take both pumps working together to drain the pool?

Four individuals pool money together to start a new business and agree to split the profits equally. n invests $6,000, x invests $2,000, y invests $8,000 and z invests $4,000. if the profits for the first month were $100,000, y receives than if the profits were divided in proportion to how much they invested.

Assume that y varies inversely with x. if y=1.6 when x=0.5 find x when y=3.2

The bottom of ignacio's desktop is 74.5cm from the floor. ignacios sits in his adjustable chair, and the tops of his legs are 49.3cm from the floor. each clockwise rotation of the knob on the chair raises ignacio's legs by 4.8cm. write an inequality to determine the number of clockwise rotations, r, ignacio could make with the knob without his legs touching the desk.
