tank a has 100 gallons of water and is being filled at a rate of 2 gallons per hour. tank b has 140 gallons and is being drained at a rate of 6 gallons per hour. how many hours must pass in order for the total amount of water in tank A and B to be the same.

5 hours must pass

Step-by-step explanation:

Graph the equations y = 2x + 100 and y = -6x + 140

Then find the x intercept of their intersection, in this case, that is 5

for finding the midpoint of any given 2 pair of points simply add the respective x coordinates with other x coordinate and the y coordinate with other y coordinate and divide them by 2

in your question it will be :

(3+1)/2 for the x coordinate of mid point i.e 2

[8+(-4)]/2 for the y coordinate of midpoint i.e 2

so coordinates of mid point of points (3,8) and (1,-4) will be (2,2)
