7/10x - 5 = 1/2x
7/10x - 1/2x = 5
7/10x - 5/10x = 5
2/10x = 5
x = 5 / (2/10)
x = 5 * 10/2
x = 50/2
x = 25 gallons <===

(7/10)X - 5 - (1/2)X
(7/10)X - (5/10)X = 5
(2/10)X = 5
X = 25 gallons capacity

If Pedro buys 7.5 gallons of gas for 28.49 how much does each gallon of gas cost? I need to know the operation like add subtract
miskamm [114]
Is means equals
sum means to add
product means to multiple
quotient means to divide

this is a division because it is asking for cost per gallon and they give you both the total gallons purchased and the total cost
28.49 divided by 7.5 = 3.798 or 3.80 rounded

PLZ help<br> What system of linear inequalities is shown in the graph?
GarryVolchara [31]

In order find the Inequalities, First we need to Find the Equations of Both the Lines.

<u>Equation of First line :</u>

It is passing through the Points (0 , 2) and (4 , 0)

⇒ Slope = \frac{2 - 0}{0 - 4} = \frac{-2}{4} = \frac{-1}{2}

⇒ Equation of the First Line : y - 2 = \frac{-1}{2}(x)

⇒ Equation of the First Line : x + 2y = 4

<u>Equation of Second Line :</u>

It is passing through the Points (1.5 , 0) and (0 , -3)

⇒ Slope = \frac{0 + 3}{1.5 - 0} = \frac{3}{1.5} = 2

⇒ Equation of the Second Line : y + 3 = 2x

⇒ Equation of the Second Line : 2x - y = 3

As the Shaded Area of the First Line is away from the Origin :

⇒ x + 2y ≥ 4

As the Shaded Area of the Second Line is towards the Origin and it is a Dotted line :

⇒ 2x - y < 3

So, the System of Linear Inequalities are :

⇒ x + 2y ≥ 4

⇒ 2x - y < 3
