This question calls for ratios. Reuben drove 268 miles with 12 gallons. 268 divided by 12 is $22\frac{1}{3}$ , so he can drive 22 and one third of a mile with one gallon. Multiply that by 9 and you will get 201 miles, which is how much he can drive using 9 gallons of gas

Need to know this now pls !!! NEED THE PROCESS , TOO!!!<br><br> x squared - 18x = -117

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

x = 9 + 6i or x = 9 - 6i

Step-by-step explanation:

x² - 18x + 117 = 0

Complete the square and solve:

(x - 9)² - 81 + 117 = 0

(x - 9)² + 36 = 0

(x - 9)² = -36

x - 9 = ±sqrt(-36)

x - 9 = ±sqrt(-1).sqrt(36)

i = imaginary number = sqrt(-1)

x - 9 = ±6i

x = 9 ± 6i

There are no real solutions, only imaginary ones

9 + 6i and 9 - 6i

How to solve -8+squre root (5a-5)=-3

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

$a=6$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

$-8+\sqrt{5a-5}=-3$

Solving for unknown variable $a$

Adding 8 both sides by additive property of equality.

$+8-8+\sqrt{5a-5}=-3+8$

$\sqrt{5a-5}=5$

Squaring both sides to remove the square root.

$(\sqrt{5a-5})^2=5^2$

$5a-5=25$

Adding 5 both sides by additive property of equality.

$5a-5+5=25+5$

$5a=30$

Dividing both sides by 6 to isolate $a$

$\frac{5a}{5}=\frac{30}{5}$

∴ $a=6$
