Answer:
Amount of gas that can be hold by Joe's tank = 16 gallons.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Joe's gas tank is 1/4 full. After he buys 6 gallons of gas, it is 5/8 full. Now we need to find about how many gallons can Joe's tank hold.
So let's find change that happened after filling the gas.
Change = (5/8 full) - (1/4 full)
Change = (5/8 - 1/4) full
Change = (5/8 - 2/8) full
Change = (5 - 2)/8 full
Change = 3/8 full
So that means 3/8 full happens in 6 gallons
then 1 full will happen in 6/(3/8) gallons = 6*(8/3) gallons = 48/3 gallons = 16 gallons
So the amount of gas that can be hold by Joe's tank = 16 gallons.
Answer:
In the first week, Micah bought 11 gallons of gas.
In the second week, Micah bought 8 gallons of gas.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
First week
x gallons of gas at $2.39 per gallon
x gallons = $2.39x
Second week
3 fewer gallons of gas than the first week at $2.49 per gallon
x - 3 gallons = $2.49(x-3)
Total spent = $46.21
$2.39x + $2.49(x-3) = $46.21
2.39x + 2.49x - 7.47 = 46.21
4.88x - 7.47 = 46.21
Add 7.47 to both sides
4.88x - 7.47 + 7.47 = 46.21 + 7.47
4.88x = 53.68
Divide both sides by 4.88
x = 53.68/4.88
= 11
x = 11
First week = x = 11 gallons
Second week
= x - 3
= 11-3
= 8 gallons
Therefore,
In the first week, Micah bought 11 gallons of gas.
In the second week, Micah bought 8 gallons of gas.
