<h3>Answer:</h3>

The tank can hold up to 9 gallons.

Quick Review:

By doing the inverse of 7/12, 12/7, when you multiply it, you'll get a value of 1.

7/12 * 12/7 = 1

Doing the Problem:

By multiplying 5 1/4 by 12/7, you'll get the answer. But first, convert 5 1/4 into an improper fraction.

5 1/4 ---> 21/4

Okay, lets go!

21/4 * 12/7 = 252/28

<u>When reduced, this gives you the answer 9/1, or 9 gallons.</u>

Hope that helps, :)

ANEK [815]
X = mia's score

eric scored 10 more then mia....so eric's score is x + 10
isabella scored 16 less then twice mia's score...so isabells's score is 2x - 16

so the expression x + x + 10 + 2x - 16 is a total of all 3 people's scores combined

a road follows the shape of a parabola f(x)=3x2– 24x + 39. A road that follows the function g(x) = 3x – 15 must cross the stream
Nonamiya [84]

the coordinates where the bridges must be built is (3,-6) and (6,3) .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , a road follows the shape of a parabola f(x)=3x2– 24x + 39. A road that follows the function g(x) = 3x – 15 must cross the stream at point A and then again at point B. Bridges must be built at those points.We need to find Identify the coordinates where the bridges must be built. Let's find out:

Basically we need to find values of x for which f(x) = g(x) :

⇒ f(x)-g(x)=0

⇒ 3x^2- 24x + 39-(3x - 15 ) =0

⇒ 3x^2- 24x + 39-3x + 15  =0

⇒ 3x^2- 27x + 54  =0

⇒ x^2- 9x + 18  =0

⇒ x^2- 6x-3x + 18  =0

⇒ x(x- 6)-3(x - 6)  =0

⇒ (x-3)(x- 6)  =0

⇒ x=3 , x=6

Value of g(x) at x = 3 : y=3x -15 = 3(3)-15 = -6

Value of g(x) at x = 6 : y=3x -15 = 3(6)-15 = 3

Therefore , the coordinates where the bridges must be built is (3,-6) and (6,3) .
