For a better understanding of the solution provided please go through the diagram in the file attached.
Let ABCD be the rectangular yard. The diagonal d=17 meters. AD=8 meters. Therefore, the length of DC can be found by applying the Pythagorean theorem in the right triangle 
as:
meters.
X + (7 - 3i) + (5 + 9i) + 13i = 10 - 5i
Subtract 13i from both sides
x + (7 -3i) + (5 + 9i) = 10 - 18i
Subtract (5 + 9i). MAKE SURE YOU SUBTRACT 9i TOO. In other words, distribute the negative and subtract 5 and 9i at the same time.
x + (7 - 3i) = 5 - 27i
Do the same with (7 - 3i). You'll be adding 3i since -(-3i) = 3i.
x = -2 - 24i
Answer:
Given that 1minute =3/7of the vessel
let the time taken in minutes to fill the whole of the vessel be' x' minute.
1min =3/7
xmin =whole vessel =1=7/7
=3x/7=1=x=7/3=2.3min=2min.3sec
