It takes three identical water pumps 7 hours to fill a pool. How long would it take two of these same pumps to fill
the pool, assuming they all pump at the same rate?

3 ft

step-by-step explanation:

since the triangle is right use pythagoras' identity to solve for a

the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides, that is

a² + 8² = ( )²

a² + 64 = 73 ( subtract 64 from both sides )

a² = 9 ( take the square root of both sides )

a = = 3

i think this is a open ended question but i agree with other guy who said you should ask it at english section

\3. yes the presentation (i.e. odd numbers being written as differences of two squares) is possible for all odd natural number however the presentation may not be unique. for example,  57=112−82=292−28257=112−82=292−282.

\4. 2 can't be written as a difference of two squares because 4-1=3 and 1-1=0 and the difference of squares grows to integers larger that 3.

can i get some in proving questions 1 and 2?
