One pipe can fill a tank in 4 hours. A second pipe also requires 4 hours, but a third needs three hours. How long will it take to fill the tank if all three pipes are open?

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the idea here that the first 2 pipes can get 1/4 of the job done in an hour, and that the third pipe can get 1/3 of the job done in an hour. We need to know then the number of hours it will take to fill the tank if all 3 work together. The equation looks like this:

Now we find a common denominator and solve for x. The common denominator is 12x. Multiplying everything by 12 x gives us

3x + 3x + 4x = 12 and

10x = 12 so

x = 1.2 hours

i cant see the graph

step-by-step explanation:

the 2 figures are congruent bc if you reflect abcd over the y axis then over the d axis the figures overlap
