Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
If two triangles are similar
then
the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal and the corresponding angles are also equal
In this problem
we have
Find the value of TS
substitute
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
The New pay in current year is = $ 2225
The old pay in the last year was = $ 2176
percentage (%) increase formula = (new value- old value ) *100 / old value
which becomes,,
which equals to 2.3% .
Hence, the average net pay per month increased is 2.3% .
The first pump empties half the pond in 3 hours, so in 1/6 that time (1/2 hour), it empties (1/6)·(1/2) = 1/12 of the pond.
The second pump empties the other 5/12 of the pond in that half hour, so has a pumping rate of (1/2 h)/(5/12 pond) = (6/5 h)/pond.
The second pump could do the entire job alone in 1 hour and 12 minutes.
