a winery has a vat with two pipes leading to it. the inlet pipe can fill the vat in 6 hours, while the outlet pipe can empty it in 10 hours. how long will it take to fill the vat if both pipes are left open? (in hours)

15 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

1vat/6hours - 1vat/10hours = 1vat/xhours

1/6 - 1/10 = 1/x

Use common denominator of 30

5/30 - 3/30 = 1/x

2/30 = 1/x

1/15 = 1/x

Cross multiply

x = 15 hours

1. x> -5

2. x< 8

step-by-step explanation:

1. 2x> -10

divide by 2 from both sides of equation.

2x/2> -10/2

simplify, to find the answer.

-10/2=-5

x> -5 is the correct answer.

2. 3x< 24

divide by 3 from both sides of equation.

3x/3< 24/3

simplify, to find the answer.

24/3=8

x< 8 is the correct answer.

i hope this you, and have a wonderful day!
