Ok so the amounts are x and 100-x

0.24x+0.5(100-x)=0.36(100)
solve
0.24x+50-0.5x=36
-0.26x+50=36
mminus 36 both sides
-0.26x=-14
divide both sides by -0.26
x=53.8462

find other one
100-x=100-53.8462=46.1538


53.8462 gallons of the 24%
46.1538 gallons of the 50%

Describe two methods for converting a mixed number to a decimal
uysha [10]
R example: 6 1/2 = 13/2 = 6.5

For the first example, six and a half is equal to thirteen halves, which is then equal to six point five. To do this, the rule to turn a mix number into a fraction is by multiplying the 2 with the 6 and then add the answer to 1, which gives 13/2 (Remember to always give the same denominator). Finally, thirteenth halves is equal to six point five (because when you divide 13 by 2, you get 6 and one left over. To continue dividing, add a 0 , and so 10 goes into 2 is five. so the decimal is 6.5

Factorize x²+7x+12 ===> (x+3)(x+4)

Factorize x²-3x-28 ===> (x-7)(x+4)

4x + 12 can be written====> 4(x+3)

Then the question could be written as follows:

 [(x+3)(x+4) / (x-7)(x+4) ] / 4(x+3) = [(x+3)(x+4) / (x-7)(x+4) ].[4(x+30]
After simplification you get 1 / 4(x-7)

Area of the bigger circle inside
= π x(3)2
= 9 π
Area of the smaller circle inside
= π x (2)2
= 4 π

Area of shaded region

List benefits of having a checking account
VikaD [51]

Checking Account Advantages

Checking account holders have access to online and mobile banking, ATMs and the use of debit cards and checks to make purchases or withdraw funds from the account. Many employees find checking accounts useful for direct deposit of their paychecks. With direct deposit, an employer automatically transfers a payroll amount into the employees banking account, saving time and avoiding trips to the bank to cash paychecks. Most checking accounts in the United Stated are also insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or FDIC, for up to $250,000, which ensures an account holder that his money is safely stored at the bank.


couldn't really find a list besides knowing its a easier way to give money when you dont have any on you.
