if we were to solve both equations for "y", we'd get

notice, the 1st equation is really the 2nd in disguise, since both lines are just pancaked on top of each other, every point in the lines is a solution or an intersection, and since both go to infinity, well, there you have it.
Answer:
The gallons of gas the tank contain now is <u>35 1/12</u>.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Fuel tank contains 1 3/4 gallons of gasoline.
Casey adds 33 1/3 gallons of gasoline to the tank.
Now, to find the total gallons of gas the tank contain.
Converting the mixed fractions into improper.
Gallons of gasoline in fuel tank
.
Gallons of gasoline Casey adds
.
<u>According to question:</u>
By adding we get the total gallons of gasoline now tank contain:





Therefore, the gallons of gas the tank contain now is 35 1/12.
Answer:
x = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x - 5 = 
Multiply through by 8 ( the LCM of 4 and 8 ) to clear the fractions
6x - 40 = 3 ( add 40 to both sides )
6x = 43 ( divide both sides by 6 )
x =
