Sean tried to drink a slushy as fast as he could. he drank the slushy at a constant rate. there were originally 275 milliliters of slushy in the cup. after 13 seconds, 210 milliliters remained. how long did it take sean to drink all the slushy?

It took Sean 55 seconds to drink all the slushy

Solution:

Original Volume: Vo=275 milliliters

After t1=13 seconds, 210 milliliters remained: V1=210 milliliters

He drank the slushy at a constant rate: r

Sean drank V=Vo-V1=275 milliliters-210 milliliters→V=65 milliliters

r=V/t1

r=65 milliliters / 13 seconds

r=5 milliliters/second

Sean will drink the remained volumen in a time t2:

t2=V1/r

t2=210 milliliters / (5 milliliters/second)

t2=42 seconds

Total time to drink: t

t=t1+t2

t=13 seconds + 42 seconds

t=55 seconds
