A pipe, working at full speed, can fill an empty cistern in 1 hour. However, during the first hour it worked at one-twenty-fourth of its capacity, during the second hour at one-twelfth of its capacity, during the third hour at one-eighth of its usual capacity, during the fourth hours at one-fourth of its usual capacity and during the fifth hour it was only one-half as efficient as it was supposed to be. A second pipe also displayed similar performance, but if it worked at full speed would have filled the empty cistern in 2 hours. Together with a drain pipe that drained water out of the tank a constant rate, the empty cistern could be filled in 5 hours, all the three pipe working concurrently. How many hours will it take the drain pipe to empty the filled cistern if no other pipe was functioning during the time?
when a truck travels at 60 miles per hour, it uses 30 percent more gasoline to travel andy distance than it does when it travels at 50 miles per hour. The truck can travel 20 miles on a gallon of gas if it is travelling at 50 miles per hour. The truck has only 10 gallons of gas and is 160 miles from its destination. It takes 20 minutes for the truck to stop for gas . How long will it take the truck to reach its final destination if it is driven at 60 miles per hour?
A pipe, working at full speed, can fill an empty cistern in 1 hour. However, during the first hour it worked at one-twelfth of its capacity, during the second hour at one-ninth of its capacity, during the third hour at one-sixth of its usual capacity and during the fifth hour it was only one -third as efficient as it was supposed to be. A second pipe also displayed similar performance, but if it worked at full speed would have filled the empty cistern in 2 hours. Together with a drain pipe that drained water out of the tank at a constant rate, the empty cistern could be filled in 5 hours, all the three pipes working concurrently.
