Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve, we need to isolate the variable, x by getting all the numbers to one sides and the variables to the other

8x-3=3x+17

Subtract 3x from both sides

8x-3x-3=3x-3x+17

5x-3=17

Add 3 to both sides

5x-3+3=17+3

5x=20

Divide both sides by 5

5x/5=20/5

x=4

Answer:

x = 95

Step-by-step explanation:

The total degree of a circle is 360. The twp arcs on each side of the parallel lines are equal.

Subtract 135 and 35 from your total

360 - 135 - 35 = 190

Divide your answer by 2

190 ÷ 2 = 95

Answer:

0.3 galloons of water.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 1/5 galloons of water fills 2/3 of the bin.

So, we can write the following fraction:

$\frac{\frac{1}{5}\text{ galloons}}{\frac{2}{3}\text{ bin}}$

We want to find how many galloons will fill the entire bin or 1 whole bin. So, we can write the following proportion:

$\frac{\frac{1}{5}\text{ galloons}}{\frac{2}{3}\text{ bin}}=\frac{x\text{ galloons}}{1\text{ bin}}$

To find our answer, we need to solve for x.

So, let's cross-multiply. This yields:

$\frac{2}{3}x=\frac{1}{5}$

Multiply both sides by 3:

$3(\frac{2}{3}x)=3(\frac{1}{5})$

The left side simplifies. Multiply on the right:

$2x=\frac{3}{5}$

Now, multiply both sides by 1/2:

$\frac{1}{2}(2x)=\frac{1}{2}(\frac{3}{5})$

Simplify the left. Multiply on the right:

$x=\frac{3}{10}$

So, 3/10 of 0.3 of a gallon of water will fill the entire bin.

And we're done!
