We are given a volume of 160 fluid ounces of chemical which is added to a container that holds 120,000 gallons of water. Assuming that the chemical has the same density as water, we just need to convert 120,000 gallons to ounces.

A conversion factor is taken from literature, 1 gallon is equivalent to 128 fluid ounces. So 160 fluid ounces is only 1.25 gallons, thus occupying minimal space in the container. The employee could add more of the chemical in the container. He can actually add 15360000 fluid ounces in total.

Define Following:consistent equations
mario62 [17]

Answer:

1. Consistent equations

x + y = 3

x + 2·y = 5

2. Dependent equations

3·x + 2·y = 6

6·x + 4·y = 12

3. Equivalent equations

9·x - 12·y = 6

3·x - 4·y = 2

4. Inconsistent equations

x + 2 = 4 and x + 2 = 6

5. Independent equations

y = -8·x + 4

8·x + 4·y = 0

6. No solution

4 = 2

7. One solution

3·x + 5 = 11

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Consistent equations

A consistent equation is one that has a solution, that is there exist a complete set of solution of the unknown values that resolves all the equations in the system.

x + y = 3

x + 2·y = 5

2. Dependent equations

A dependent system of equations consist of the equation of a line presented in two alternate forms, leading to the existence of an infinite number of solutions.

3·x + 2·y = 6

6·x + 4·y = 12

3. Equivalent equations

These are equations with the same roots or solution

e.g. 9·x - 12·y = 6

3·x - 4·y = 2

4. Inconsistent equations

Inconsistent equations are equations that are not solvable based on the provided set of values in the equations

e.g. x + 2 = 4 and x + 2 = 6

5. Independent equations

An independent equation is an equation within a system of equation, that is not derivable based on the other equations

y = -8·x + 4

8·x + 4·y = 0

6. No solution

No solution indicates that the solution is not in existence

Example,  4 = 2

7. One solution

This is an equation that has exactly one solution

Example 3·x + 5 = 11

x = 2

Find the common ratio r for the given geometric sequence and find the next three terms.
34kurt

Answer:

The common ratio is -2

Next three terms are 18, -36, and 72

Step-by-step explanation:

The common ratio is -2 since each consecutive term is being multiplied by -2

The next three terms are -9(-2) = 18, 18(-2) = -36, and -36(-2) = 72

Answer:

A. 24.5

B. 29.6

Step-by-step explanation:

A.

19 - 13.5 = 5.5

30 - 5.5 = 24.5

24.5 - 5.5 = 19

24.5

B.

43.8 - 36.7 = 7.1

36.7 - 7.1 = 29.6

29.6 - 7.1 = 22.5

29.6
