Question

A cylindrical container has a height of 24 inches. Currently, the container is filled with water to a height of 18 inches. A leaky faucet drips into the container, causing the height of the water in the container to increase by 2 inches per hour. The equation below can be used to find t, the number of hours it would take to fill the container. 18 + ?t = 24 What number should be the coefficient of t? 2 3 18 24

Hope it helps uh...!!!

----------
Given:
----------

⚫Height of cylindrical container = 24 inches

⚫Height of water in container = 18 inches

⚫Leaky faucet increases water by 2 inches per hour.

18 + ?t = 24

--------------------------------------
⚫The coefficient of t is 2.
--------------------------------------

18 + 2t = 24
2t = 24 - 18
2t = 6
2t/2 = 6/2
t = 3

----------------------------------------------------------
⚫It would take 3 hours to fill the container.
----------------------------------------------------------

18 + 2t = 24
18 + 2(3) = 24
18 + 6 = 24
24 = 24

Hence, the coefficient of 't' is '2'

Answer 2

GIVEN :-

●HIGHT OF CYLINDRICAL CONTAINER = 24 inches

●HIGHT OF WATER IN CONTAINER = 18 inches

●LEAKY FAUCET INCREASE WATER BY 2 INCHES PER HOUR

-______________________________

=> 18 + ?t = 24 ___[GIEVN CONDITION]

» IF The coefficient of t is 2.

THEN WE CHECK OUR ANSWER

=> 18 + 2t = 24

=> 2t = 24 - 18

=> 2t = 6

=> t = 3

__________________________

●If 3 hours to fill the container.

=> 18 + 2t = 24

=> 18 + 2(3) = 24

=> 18 + 6 = 24

=> 24 = 24 _____[PROVED]

●HENCE , THE COEFFICIENT OF "t" IS "2"
