A water tank is 3/4 full.

Mathematics

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!

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

Hence the correct option is the last one . The triangle is an obtuse angled triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

i) the sum of any two sides added together is greater than the third side hence this is a triangle.

ii) it is<em><u> not</u></em> a right angled triangle as $\sqrt{9^{2} + 15^{2} } \neq 19$ and $\sqrt{9^{2} + 15^{2} } < 19$

iii) the triangle is not acute from ii) above

iv) the triangle is an obtuse triangle from ii) above.

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Recall: $x^{-a} = \frac{1}{x^a}$

a. $4^{-3} = \frac{1}{4^3} = \frac{1}{64}$

b. $13^{-2} = \frac{1}{13^2} = \frac{1}{169}$

c. $(-3)^{-2} = \frac{1}{-3^2} = \frac{1}{9}$
