x/.75=x-56/0.4

0.4x=.75x-42

-0.35x=-42

x=120

I set up a proportion in which x=the tank when it is 3/4 full. When the tank is 3/4 full, solving the proportion tells us the x=120 litres. 120/3=40, and 120+40 is 160, showing that a tank completely full would indeed hold 160 litres.

Hope this helps!

gavmur [86]

Answer:

z+42+42=180

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is an isosceles triangle, the two base angles are the same and remember all the angles add to 180. So use this equation:

z+42+42=180

If you need to find z, it is 96.

Check: 96+42+42=180

3 Ximena draws an X shape in the coordinate plane as shown. Draw the images of

VARVARA [1.3K]

When a shape is rotated, it must be rotated around a point.

See attachment for the image of each rotation.

To do this, the top coordinates of the X shape will be transformed using the appropriate rotation rule; the same rule will then be applied to the other parts of the X shape.

The top coordinates of the X shape are:

$A = (0,0)$
