The capacity of the tank in gallons is 24 gallons.

<h3>What is an Equation ?</h3>

An equation is a mathematical statement formed when two algebraic expressions are equated by an equal sign.

It is given in the question that

When four gallons are added to a tank that is one-third full

the tank is then one-half full.

Let the capacity of the tank is x gallons

The equation can be formed for the capacity of the tank as

(1/3)x +4 = (1/2)x

(1/3)x -(1/2)x = -4

(1/6)x = 4

x = 24 gallons.

Therefore the capacity of the tank in gallons is 24 gallons.

Tia and Ken sold snack bars and magazine subscriptions for the school fundraiser. Tia sold 16 snack bars and 4 magazine subscrip
Aliun [14]

Answer:

The value of the snack bar is $ 2 and that of the magazine subscription is 25 $

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a system of two equations and two unknowns, which would be the following:

let "x" be the cost of the snack bar

Let "y" be the cost of the magazine subscription

16 * x + 4 * y = 132

20 * x + 6 * y = 190 => y = (190 - 20 * x) / 6

replacing:

16 * x + 4 * (190 - 20 * x) / 6 = 132

16 * x + 126.66 - 13.33 * x = 132

2.66 * x = 132 - 126.66

x = 5.34 / 2.66

x = 2

for "y":

y = (190 - 20 * 2) / 6

y = 25

Which means that the value of the snack bar is $ 2 and that of the magazine subscription is 25 $

minimum: (-infinity, infinity)
keep it in same format as you have for the maximum
