The answer is 1/4 because all you have to really do is simplify
So
1/2x+2=2/3x
convert to common fraction
1/2=3/6
2/3=4/6
3/6x+2=4/6x
subtract 3/6x from both sides
2=1/6x
multiply boh tisdes by 6
12=x
the tank can hold 12 gallon
Answer:
y = 8x-37
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+c
We know the slope m
y=8x+c
We know a point on the line (5,3). Substitute this in for x and y
3 = 8(5) +c
3 = 40+c
3-40 = 40+c-40
-37 =c
y = 8x-37
