Answer:
1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
3/4 is the same as 6/8. 6/8 plus 1/8 is 7/8. 8/8 minus 7/8 is 1/8.
Solution
- 89 gallons contains 40 gallons twice such that:

- This means that we can find at least 200% of 40 gallons in 89 gallons. This gives us what to expect.
- To get the percentage we are looking for, we should use the formula:

New, in this case, is 89 gallons, Old is 40 gallons.
- Thus, we can calculate the percentage as follows:

Thus, the answer is 222.5%
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
A = 
Substitute the given values with h = a, then
16.5 =
( multiply both sides by 2 )
33 = a(a + 8) ← distribute
33 = a² + 8a ( subtract 33 from both sides )
0 = a² + 8a - 33 ← in standard form
0 = (a + 11)(a - 3) ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for a
a + 11 = 0 ⇒ a = - 11
a - 3 = 0 ⇒ a = 3
However, a > 0 thus a = 3
Hence the height is 3 feet
