The amount added, 130 gallons is the difference
= 3/5 - 1/6
= 18/30 - 5/30
= 13/30
multiply by 10/10
= 130/300 gallons

300 gallons when full

Answer:

300 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between three-fifths full and one-sixth full is 3/5-1/6=13/30 of the tank's capacity. Let x be the capacity of the tank in gallons. Since 13/30 of the tank's capacity is 130 gallons, we have 13/30 x = 130. Multiplying both sides by 30/13 gives x = 300, so the capacity is 300 gallons.

1.06g - 3 = 0.71 I need this answer
Arte-miy333 [17]
<span>Simplifying 1.06g + -3 = 0.71 Reorder the terms: -3 + 1.06g = 0.71 Solving -3 + 1.06g = 0.71 Solving for variable 'g'. Move all terms containing g to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '3' to each side of the equation. -3 + 3 + 1.06g = 0.71 + 3 Combine like terms: -3 + 3 = 0 0 + 1.06g = 0.71 + 3 1.06g = 0.71 + 3 Combine like terms: 0.71 + 3 = 3.71 1.06g = 3.71 Divide each side by '1.06'. g = 3.5 Simplifying g = 3.5</span>

Which equations represent the line that’s passes through points (1,-5) and (3,-17)
Nutka1998 [239]

(1,-5)(3,-17)

slope = (-17 - (-5) / (3 - 1) = - 12/2 = - 6


y = mx + b

slope(m) = -6

use either of ur points...(1,-5)...x = 1 and y = -5

now we sub and find b, the y int

-5 = -6(1) + b

-5 = -6 + b

-5 + 6 = b

1 = b

so ur equation is : y = -6x + 1....or 6x + y = 1

Hope this helps!

OKAY HELP so Raegan has a rectangular breadspread that is 238 cm by 435 cm. She wants to sew a fringe around the bread spread. w
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

The new perimeter is 1400 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of the bedspread is the perimeter of a rectangle, whose formula is:

Perimeter = 2 * width + 2 * length

Then the perimeter of the initial bed spread is:

Perimeter = 2 * (238 cm) + 2 * (435 cm) = 1346 cm

as you calculated.

Now, she gets a new bedspread that is 27 cm longer. So the new dimensions are 238 cm width, and (435 + 27) cm length, then the perimeter becomes:

Perimeter = 2 * (238 cm) + 2 * (462cm) = 1400 cm
