If the APC senators agree to this one then I will agree with the wailing wailers that they are still learning politics. PDP will use this technique to screen out some apc loyalists like amaechi and Fashola. A rule which they jetissoned for obanoikoro to scale through. APC shouldn't just maga around o! Anyway I bet before next week that rule would be discarded. APC is in power still.

Uhh okay.

lol. Na joke I de sha.

bykebyke:
Like I said earlier..."if I'm asked to".

yes I do appreciate it's a personal opinion : but it's still the joke of the century!

bykebyke:
I do not agree with the emboldened..If I'm asked to choose between the Suarez of last season and the one of Liverpool,I will a thousand times pick the one of last season.

Has he been under par this season...Yes,but show me any one of our players who hasn't.

Suarez of last season over Suarez of liverpool? Because we won a treble? This has to be the joke of the century!

dmcdad:
True.

But he did try to steer the team in our last game. He seemed to try too hard because there was little or no support from others, especially Suárez.

He created lots of chances that should have been buried by Suárez and co, but they failed. I guess that made him a bit desperate in that match to turn things around by himself.

If only Pique had done the needful, we would have walked out of the Sanchez Pijzuan with at least a draw.

Good thing though Ney ain't got any international commitment this time around. Hopefully he will rest a lot cause we will need everyone to be at their best physically henceforth.

We will also need Suárez to come good too. He has been playing poorly since the start of the season. The things saving his head are the goals. Of course for a striker it's all about the goals. But then, we know he ain't doing pretty well overall. He needs to get his acts together. Thank goodness he has scored some pretty important goals though.

As for our defence, they really need to wake up! Gosh! Since Pique got back from his ban he has been playing sh1t! Well, good thing Verminator will be back before the close of the international break. Although, Pique is always a sure starter so I don't see anyone displacing him. But the coach needs to maybe take some drastic steps in making Pique sit up like he did last season.

If only this appeal (to register Arda) could work out. I would be most glad. And Rakitic needs to up his game too. He has not been his best thus far this season. Even Busi has been found wanting a couple of times this season. Seems to me he is taking for granted the fact that no one can displace him. Mascherano has not been his best either.

Anyhow, it's good we are still competing on all fronts albeit we have lots of our first team players out. I wonder if this were to happen with some club in white, if they would be surviving as much as we are now. If a club like Chelshit that didn't lose any of their players are struggling, I wonder how we are still coping. Top of the table in UCL, tied in the Liga alongside Madrid and Celta with the top-most team just a point away.

If we can get to January with the top of the Liga table within touching distance, or even tied or on top, then I would only hope that the dream of making a double-treble becomes a reality.

We shall survive because we are Barça!

and what makes you think Mr verminator won't return to the treatment table after another 2 matches? As for Suarez, he just isn't the Player he was at Liverpool. If he was we wouldn't rely só much on Messi after half a dozen years. Give Suarez 10 chances, he converts 1. He's only lucky he gets tonns of them chances in a team like barca.

If buhari did not nominate him, they would say use and dump, now buhari has nominated him they say corruption! Amaechi will be minister, wailers wail and die! APC is in power now! All pdp looters will be hunted down. Whenever pdp gain power again, they should do same to apc. That's the harsh reality, wailers die!

DOA stands for 2 things : death of auto tunes, dead on arrival! Any one you want.

Dannyset:
In summary, what is your point?

in summary, Wike is an arsenal fan, he's a goner!

Oliseh, diaris God o! Why are you kicking people out na? Are you APC that kicks people out?

AMAECHI'S CONSOLATION PRICE/MUCH ADO ABOUT NOISEMAKING
He get luck say him name dey the minister list. He for die for we hand.
However, no be Minister wey Orubebe, Maku, Akunyili etc dey resign from just to CONTEST for Senate or Governorship? Is there something I am missing?
Amaechi sha, if he agree to say the truth, if to say thm show am this future, he for sit down, enjoy his governorship and continu the name he made in first tenure, and then after second tenure of peace, move on to the senate like Akpabio and be a demi-god in Rivers state as well as leader of the Niger Delta.
Instead he is pariah in his state, and seen as Judas Ischariot in the Niger Delta
But I congratulat him. He was promised Presidency, then VP then chief of staff, then SGF. But last last, in the spirit of "at all at all na weensh", in the spirit of "a breast in hand is worth two in the bra", in the spirit of "provision store is better than kiosk" in the spirit of "half bread is
better than full chinchin" Amaechi will call minister "victory"....

Ena you try well

and I guess you have not seen former senators and governors who have lobbied, sweated and begged for ministerial positions over the years? You have intellect myopia.

Balarebi Musa criticizes everything buhari does. He criticizes baba when he sleeps, eats, shits. He even criticizes baba for smiling.

. Lol. I swear 1 million wailers won't sleep tonight. In their nightmares they are going to keep seeing that second photo: the one with the red scarf and the cowboy hat.

Lai Mohammed is minister for information. Chibuike Amaechi is minister of interior.

gare:
From the names on the list does it look like PMB is serious about fighting corruption, it is still going to be biz as usual, maybe they will add some level of decorum in the stealing this time not with impunity like in GEJ regime.

Something you have to learn in life is that 99% of the human race is corrupt by default. And at the same time honest by default! It all depends on the leader in place. If a leader creates an enabling environment for his staff to be corrupt and loot, surely they would. Yes buhari is serious about corruption. If 100 devils work under buhari and he's the commander in chief of the police and the army, they won't be corrupt as long as he keeps them in check.

Gboliwe:
You can tear your boxers and run into the market bro. It doesn't change the fact that Akpabio is stubborn and the Senate needs stubborn men like him unlike the docile ugly T.Orji.

the senate doesn't need stubborn men but principled men. A man could be stubborn and still be a crook and criminal like akpabio is. Senate needs principled men not stubborn men. Amaechi will be minister, you tear your scrotum and race into the desert.

Gboliwe:
Akpabio is a very stubborn politician. The senate needs people like him not like that T.Orji who is just there to siphon more.

is it because nobody has set a panel on him, that's why he's making noise here and there? He who was trying to give himself life incentives and looted akwa ibom? If amaechi cannot be a minister, akpabio cannot be a senator.

codedguy1:
This is gonna be really interesting.
Maybe Buhari is even setting all these guys up. If senate no gree approve Fashola, Amaechi it would be good reason for Buhari to shenk them and appoint his own people with authentic excuse.

lol, they just dont give up, do they? From baba has used and dumped amaechi, to baba cannot appoint amaechi, to baba is playing a fast one on them. When they now become ministers you will then be like, baba wants to try them só that he can remove them after 3 months when they steal money. Oga wailer, you nor de tire?

Sanchez01:
Senators are having a laugh at the inclusion of Rotimi Amaechi on the list. A senator could be heard at the background saying "Is Amaechi diligent?"

amaechi cannot be claimed to be non dilligent simply because he helped in kicking out Jonathan. The old rhyme was 'buhari has used and dumped amaechi', the new rhyme will be 'the inclusion of Rotimi Amaechi shows that baba is not serious about corruption' wailers changing stances like professional prostitutes!

Krasid:
Same thing happened in 2013, but he won the ballon d'or.

lol, só this guy get hope sha! you're hoping for another stroke of injustice and opportunism? Blatter will not extend voting deadline this time and ask voters to change their votes if they wanted, no world cup final play off match in november this year to steal ballon dor. Luckily Messi has got the joker of winning the treble this time. A player like Messi wins the treble, it's case closed. But I love the hope that deluded people like you have on Ronaldo winning ballon dor 2015, it adds a little bit of suspense to it, just a little bit. Honestly the race for ballon dor 2015 was beginning to get boring.

Krasid:
True.They should just hand the award to Cristiano and save the other 58 players the stress.

The same dude who only managed 2 sympathy votes out of 54 in the last major awards done, just barely a month ago? Now that was a statement só very carelessly, ignorantly, shamefully and shamelessly made.

Krasid:

Now this is a statement very carelessly, ignorantly, shamefully and shamelessly made.

Is there any contest for the 2015 ballon d'or? Crazy! That one's taken already. Let's just begin to debate on the 2016 edition.

Gosh! Apparently there are a lot of nairalanders on the pay rolls of all the people who have looted this country to death. What next generation are we talking about? What leaders of tomorrow are we talking about? Some of us wallow in poverty but would still defend people who have taken our commonwealth for themselves and their children's children's children. It's sickening!

Did I just read that the apc chapter of rivers state plans to oppose amaechi? How's that even possible? Lol.

TonyeBarcanista:
God Bless This DPO! Wike carry goooooooooooooooo!

you are calling God? to bless him? Can you swear to the same God and say which of the 2 accounts is the truth? And a bunch of low lives would come out and crown this thing as their chief wailer? And call him objective? Really Sorry for you!

1 million wailers will catch a heart attack. All I want to see is the name Chibuike Amaechi on the list.

obailala:
Calculating... Wow!... this simple problem almost got me crazy here in the office.


Answer is 7.778 mins

If all pipes are opened at the same time, the tank fills in 6.667 mins, but when 'B' is opened after 1 minute after 'A', and 'C' is opened after 1 minute after 'B', then the tank fills in 7.778 mins

Assuming:
Tank capacity = T

Flowrate of pipe A = T/20
Flowrate of pipe B = T/30
Flowrate of pipe C = T/15

Total time used in filling tank = t (mins)
Pipe A runtime = t
Pipe B runtime = t-1
Pipe C runtime = t-2

Tank capacity = (Total Flowrate) * (Total time)

T = (T/20)t + (T/30)(t-1) + (T/15)(t-2)
T = (Tt/20) + (Tt/30 - T/30) + (Tt/15 - 2T/15)
After some voodoo on the above equation....
70T = 9Tt
70 = 9t
t = 7.778 mins

You smart asses obviously missed where the question said "in one successive minutes"

Perfect solution. I didn't even notice that second part of the question which talked about successive and all that. I score you 10/10.

hahn:
And score me 11/10

lol

PassingShot:
Ambiguous!

there's nothing ambiguous there. Except for one who isnt grounded in algebraic word problems. A qualified examiner would score me 10/10 and score you 9/10.

PassingShot:
How can I be wrong when the answer is correct?

Use whatever figure (30, 50 or 100) and you will arrive at the same answer.

I deliberately avoided using "X" so as not to confuse some people. Btw, why must I use X or Y to solve the problem?

I agree with you. Any number you use would give you the same answer, the correct answer. Using your method, I would have opted for the lcm of 20, 30, and 15. Which is 60. I would have used 60 in place of 100 in order to get whole numbers for my calculation. Trust me an examiner would give you 9/10 for assuming a number instead of working with an unKnown X or y or p.

PassingShot:
Your question is meant to read "how many minutes will be required to fill the tank if all pipes were switched on at the same time?"

The answer is 6.76 minutes. I will explain it:

Let the tank size x be assumed to be 100 liters.

If Pipe A can fill it in 20 minutes, pipe A pumps 5 liters per minute (100/20)
If Pipe B can fill it in 30 minutes, it then pumps 3.33 liters per minute (100/30min)
If Pipe C can fill it in 15 mins, then it pumps 6.6 liters per minute (100/15)

When all pipes are switched on together, they jointly pump about 15 liters per minute (5+3.33+6.6 liters).

Therefore, to fill 100 liter tank, 6.6666 approx. 6.76 minutes will be needed (100/15 liter per minute).

NB: Irrespective of the figure used for the tank capacity, the same result/answer will be achieved.

You're wrong to assume any figure for the capacity of the tank. Just use X.

Curlieweed:
The maths should be elementary enough but the language is wack. What does "one successive minutes" mean?

lol. Forget the English, solve the massssss
