3/4 - 1/8 = 6/8 - 1/8 = 5/8...so 5/8 = 10 gallons

(5/8) / 10 = 1 / x
cross multiply
(5/8)(x) = (10)(1)
5/8x = 10
x = 10 * 8/5
x = 80/5 = 16 <== so it would take 16 gallons to fill the tank

Solve x+y=7 and 3x-2y=11 using elimination
BartSMP [9]
X=5 and y =2.
Here's how you do it.
Multiply the first equation by -3, and the second one by 1.
add the equations to eliminate x.
then solve for y by dividing both sides by -5, which gives us 2.
to solve for x subsitute 2 in for y.

A submarine was traveling along the surface of the ocean and decides to dive. If the dive angle is 28° with the horizontal surfa
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

1.5 nautical miles

Step-by-step explanation:

See the attached diagram.

The submarine starts to dive at point A and diving along AB.

If the distance traveled underwater i.e. AB = 1.7 Nautical miles and C is the point directly above its current position at B.

Then Δ ABC is a right triangle having ∠ BAC = 28° {Given}

So, using trigonometry we can write  

\cos 28 = \frac{AC}{AB} = \frac{AC}{1.7}

⇒ AC = 1.7 \times \cos 28 = 1.5 nautical miles.

Therefore, the surface distance that the submarine travels is 1.5 nautical miles. (Answer)
