An inlet pipe on a swimming pool can be used to fill the pool in 40 hours. the drain pipe can be used to empty the pool in 42 hours. if the pool is 23 filled and then the inlet pipe and drain pipe are opened, how long from that time will it take to fill the pool?

Pool will be filled in 280 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Inlet pipe fills in  40 hours = 1 pool

Inlet pipe fills in 1 hours =

Drain pipe empty in 42 hours = 1 pool

Drain pipe empty in 1 hour =  

If both pipes are opened together

 then in pool fills in 1 hour =   -  

      on simplifying the right side ,we get  

                                                                 =      

                                                                 =    

       pool fills in 1 hour

                       1 pool will be filled in 840 hours

        pool is filled

empty pool =  1 - =  

therfore   pool will be filled in     X 840 =

                                                                                           = 280 hours

25 questions , because they start with 100.  

350-100=250 .  

. 250/10=25

step-by-step explanation:

first take off 100, then what x 10 = 250? that is your answer. (25)

i would be happy to . most people on would also love to i'm sure. if you just want someone who has done algebra before and want a little more personal relationship than just begging strangers for , i can certainly be of service. i do have college myself so i might not be 24/7.
