Answer:
10 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
She used 12 gallons this week and used 20% more than last week. That means 12 gallons is 120% of last weeks gas. Since 12 times 10 equals 120, then to find 20% you do 20 divided 10 and subtract the answer from 12.
20% is 2 because 20 divided by 10 is 2. 12 minus 2 is 10
Hope this helps :)

Answer:
C.
Step-by-step explanation:
Even though it is absolute value, 17 is still the greatest answer. If a number is in absolute value it will never be negative, only positive values can come out of an absolute value.
An example for absolute value would be if you had to measure the amount of distance away from something, even if its behind you, it would still be a positive number of length away from you.
If you had the absolute value of -25, it would automatically be equal to 25.
So circling back to the original problem, the absolute value of 17 would be greater than 3, -4 and -8. If (hypothetically) it was the absolute value of -17 it would still be greater because it would equal 17.
I hope that made sense, im sorry that it's a bit lengthy. Have a good day :)
