Let's solve this problem step by step. 1. **Calculate the rate at which each pipe operates:** - Pipe A can fill the tank in 6 hours, so its rate is \( \frac{1}{6} \) tank per hour. - Pipe B can fill the tank in 8 hours, so its rate is \( \frac{1}{8} \) tank per hour. - The outlet pipe can empty the tank in 12 hours, so its rate is \( \frac{1}{12} \) tank per hour. 2. **Calculate the combined rate of the inlet pipes:** The combined rate of Pipe A and Pipe B is: \[ \frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{8} = \frac{4}{24} + \frac{3}{24} = \frac{7}{24} \text{ tank per hour} \] 3. **Calculate the time it takes to fill the tank with all three pipes operating:** The outlet pipe's rate is \( \frac{1}{12} \) tank pe…

1. To solve this problem, we first need to determine the rate at which each pipe fills the tank. Pipe A fills the tank in 6 hours, so its rate is 1/6 of the tank per hour. Pipe B fills the tank in 8 hours, so its rate is 1/8 of the tank per hour. The outlet pipe empties the tank in 12 hours, so its rate is -1/12 of the tank per hour (negative because it is removing water). Since the pipes are open simultaneously, we can add their rates together to find the combined rate: 1/6 + 1/8 - 1/12 To add these fractions, we need a common denominator. The least common multiple of 6, 8, and 12 is 24, so we convert each fraction: 4/24 + 3/24 - 2/24 Now we can add and subtract the fractions: 4/24 + 3/24 -…

Assume each pipe operates at a constant rate. ### 1. Time to fill with all three pipes open Rates: - Pipe A fills \(\frac{1}{6}\) of the tank per hour. - Pipe B fills \(\frac{1}{8}\) of the tank per hour. - Outlet empties \(\frac{1}{12}\) of the tank per hour. Thus, the net filling rate is \[ \frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{8}-\frac{1}{12} \] Using a common denominator of 24: \[ \frac{4}{24}+\frac{3}{24}-\frac{2}{24} =\frac{5}{24} \] So the tank fills at \(\frac{5}{24}\) tank per hour.

The filling rates of the pipes are \(+\frac{1}{6}\) tank/h (A), \(+\frac{1}{8}\) tank/h (B) and \(-\frac{1}{12}\) tank/h (outlet). When all three pipes operate together the net rate is \[ \frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{8}-\frac{1}{12}=\frac{4}{24}+\frac{3}{24}-\frac{2}{24}=\frac{5}{24} \] tank per hour. The time required to fill an empty tank is therefore \[ \frac{1}{5/24}=\frac{24}{5}=4.8 \] hours. To reach the half-full mark the same net rate is used, so the time needed is \[ \frac{1/2}{5/24}=\frac{12}{5}=2.4 \] hours. After pipe A is closed the remaining net rate is \[ \frac{1}{8}-\frac{1}{12}=\frac{3}{24}-\frac{2}{24}=\frac{1}{24} \] tank per hour. Filling the remaining half-tank therefore takes \…

**Part 1: How long will it take to fill the tank?** Let's analyze the situation: * Pipe A can fill the tank in 6 hours, so its rate of filling the tank is 1/6 of the tank per hour. * Pipe B can fill the tank in 8 hours, so its rate of filling the tank is 1/8 of the tank per hour. * The outlet pipe can empty the tank in 12 hours, so its rate of emptying the tank is 1/12 of the tank per hour. When all three pipes are open simultaneously, the net rate of filling the tank is the sum of the rates of Pipe A and Pipe B, minus the rate of the outlet pipe: Net rate = (1/6 + 1/8 - 1/12) of the tank per hour To find the common denominator, we multiply the fractions by the least common multiple of 6, 8,…

Let's break down the problem into two parts. **Part 1: Time to fill the tank** Let's first find the combined rate at which the three pipes fill the tank. Pipe A can fill the tank in 6 hours, so its rate is 1/6 tank per hour. Pipe B can fill the tank in 8 hours, so its rate is 1/8 tank per hour. The outlet pipe can empty the tank in 12 hours, so its rate is -1/12 tank per hour (negative because it's emptying the tank). The combined rate of the three pipes is: (1/6 + 1/8 - 1/12) tanks per hour To add these fractions, we need a common denominator, which is 24. So, we get: (4/24 + 3/24 - 2/24) = 5/24 tanks per hour Since the combined rate is 5/24 tanks per hour, it will take 24/5 hours to fill t…

Let the capacity of the tank be $1$ full tank. ### Step 1: Find the rate of each pipe * Pipe A fills the tank in 6 hours: $$\text{Rate of A} = \frac{1}{6} \text{ tank per hour}$$ * Pipe B fills the tank in 8 hours: $$\text{Rate of B} = \frac{1}{8} \text{ tank per hour}$$ * The outlet empties the tank in 12 hours: $$\text{Rate of outlet} = -\frac{1}{12} \text{ tank per hour}$$ ### 1. All three pipes open Combined rate: $$\frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{8} - \frac{1}{12}$$ Using a common denominator of 24: $$= \frac{4}{24} + \frac{3}{24} - \frac{2}{24} = \frac{5}{24} \text{ tank per hour}$$ Time to fill 1 tank: $$\text{Time} = \frac{1}{5/24} = \frac{24}{5} = 4.8 \text{ hours}$$ **Answer: 4.8 hours, or…

Here is the step-by-step solution to both parts of the problem. ### **First, find the hourly rate of each pipe:** Think of the full tank as having a value of $1$. * **Pipe A (inlet):** Fills the tank in 6 hours, so its rate is $+\frac{1}{6}$ of the tank per hour. * **Pipe B (inlet):** Fills the tank in 8 hours, so its rate is $+\frac{1}{8}$ of the tank per hour. * **Outlet Pipe:** Empties the tank in 12 hours, so its rate is $-\frac{1}{12}$ of the tank per hour. --- ### **Part 1: How long will it take to fill the tank with all three pipes open?** **Step 1: Find the combined rate of all three pipes.** Add the rates of the inlet pipes and subtract the rate of the outlet pipe: $$\text{Combined…

**Step 1 – Write the filling/emptying rates** | Pipe | Effect on the tank | Rate (tank / hour) | |------|-------------------|-------------------| | A | Fills | \( \displaystyle \frac{1}{6}\) | | B | Fills | \( \displaystyle \frac{1}{8}\) | | C | Empties | \(-\displaystyle\frac{1}{12}\) | (The negative sign for C indicates draining.) --- ### 1. Time to fill the tank when **all three pipes are open** When A, B and C are open together the **net rate** is \[ R_{\text{total}} = \frac16+\frac18-\frac1{12} = \frac{4}{24}+\frac{3}{24}-\frac{2}{24} = \frac{5}{24}\;\text{tank per hour}. \] Since the tank starts empty, the volume after \(t\) hours is \[ V(t)=R_{\text{total}}\,t=\frac{5}{24}t . \] Set \…

Rates: - Pipe A fills: \( \frac{1}{6} \) tank/hour - Pipe B fills: \( \frac{1}{8} \) tank/hour - Outlet empties: \( -\frac{1}{12} \) tank/hour ### 1. All three pipes open from empty Net rate: \[ \frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{8}-\frac{1}{12} \] Common denominator 24: \[ \frac{4}{24}+\frac{3}{24}-\frac{2}{24}=\frac{5}{24} \text{ tank/hour} \] Time to fill 1 tank: \[ \frac{1}{5/24}=\frac{24}{5}=4.8 \text{ hours} \] So: **4.8 hours** (4 hours 48 minutes). --- ### 2. Pipe A turned off after 50% full Remaining amount: \[ 50\% = \frac{1}{2} \text{ tank} \] New active pipes: B and outlet.

Let’s go through it step by step. --- ## **Step 1: Determine rates** - **Pipe A** fills at \( \frac{1}{6} \) tank per hour. - **Pipe B** fills at \( \frac{1}{8} \) tank per hour. - **Outlet pipe** empties at \( \frac{1}{12} \) tank per hour. When all are open, the **net fill rate** is: \[ \frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{8} - \frac{1}{12} \] --- ### Step 2: Common denominator The least common multiple of 6, 8, and 12 is 24. Convert each: - \( \frac{1}{6} = \frac{4}{24} \) - \( \frac{1}{8} = \frac{3}{24} \) - \( \frac{1}{12} = \frac{2}{24} \) So net rate when all open: \[ \frac{4 + 3 - 2}{24} = \frac{5}{24} \ \text{tank per hour} \] --- ## **Part 1: Time to fill from empty with all pipes open** At \( \…

### 1. All three pipes remain open The rates, in tanks per hour, are: - Pipe A: \(1/6\) - Pipe B: \(1/8\) - Outlet: \(-1/12\) The combined rate is \[ \frac16+\frac18-\frac1{12} =\frac4{24}+\frac3{24}-\frac2{24} =\frac5{24}\text{ tank per hour}. \] So the time to fill one tank is \[ 1\div\frac5{24}=\frac{24}{5}=4.8\text{ hours}. \] **Answer: 4 hours 48 minutes.** ### 2. Pipe A is turned off when the tank is 50% full With only Pipe B and the outlet open, the net rate is \[ \frac18-\frac1{12} =\frac3{24}-\frac2{24} =\frac1{24}\text{ tank per hour}. \] The time to fill the remaining half is \[ \frac12\div\frac1{24}=12\text{ hours}. \] **Answer: 12 additional hours.**
