Suppose the number is x, its reciprocal is 1/x
x+1/x=13/6
(x^2+1)/x=13/6
6(x^2+1)=13x
6x^2-13x+6=0
(3x-2)(2x-3)=0
x=2/3 or x=3/2
Answer:
gallon
Step-by-step explanation:
A gallon is a measuring unit used to measure the liquid capacity. It helps in measuring the volume and capacity of a fluid. The capacity of one gallon is equivalent to 3.79 liters. It is used to denote the measurement of approximately four liters of liquid.
Mrs. Larivierre had filled a tub with water. To measure the water content of the tub, the most appropriate unit would be a gallon.
So we know the tank already has 5 gallons and we need 9. This means we need 4 more gallons in order to fill up the tank.
If 1/4 gallon is being filled per minute we need to find out how many 1/4 gallons makes up 4 gallons in total.
4 of the 1/4 gallons makes up 1 whole gallon. So since we need 4 whole gallons we would need 16 of the 1/4 gallons.
This means that it will take 16 minutes for the tank to hold 9 gallons of water.
Red : Cream : Blue
2 : 3 : 1
2x2 : 3x2 : 1x2
4 : 6 : 2
You need 6 parts of Cream and 2 parts of Blue
