Answer:
72 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
19 units represent 228 gallons
so
using proportion
Find out how many gallons represent 6 units
Let
x ---> the number of gallons for 6 units

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:













Problem 1:
1) 3/5x-1 x 3/4=9/10
3x/5-1 x 3/4=9/10
2) 3x/5-1 x 3/4=9/10
3x/5-3/4=9/10
3) 3x/5-3/4=9/10
+3/4 +3/4
4) 3x/5=33/20
5) 5 x 3x/5= 5 x (33/20)
6) 3x=33/4
7) 3x=33/4
/3 /3
8) x=11/4
Problem 2:
1) 6/7+2/5x=-4/5
6/7+2x/5=-4/5
2) 6/7+2x/5=-4/5
-6/7 -6/7
3) 2x/5= --58/35
4) 5 x 2x/5= 5 x (--58/35)
5) 2x= --58/7
6) 2x= --58/7
/2 /2
x= --29/7
The relative speed of the car to the truck while moving towards each other is the sum of the speed of both vehicles.
- The time it takes them to meet is <u>1 hour</u>
Reasons:
The distance between the cities, d = 145 miles
The time it takes a truck to cover the distance = 2.5 hours
The speed of the car = 1.5 × Th speed of the truck
Required:
The time it takes them to meet if they are moving towards each other.
Solution:

Therefore;
The speed of the car,
= 1.5 × 58 mph = 87 mph
At the time<em>, t</em>, the truck and the car meet, we have;

Which gives;
87 × t + 58 × t = 145

- The time it takes them to meet, <em>t</em> = <u>1 hour</u>
