<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, :)

What is the answer for-10x - 5 = -8x + 11
OLga [1]

Answer:

In order to solve this equation, you have to isolate the x and set it equal to a number. I chose to add 8x to both sides, making it -2x - 5 = 11. Then add 5 to both sides, making it -2x = 16. Divide both sides by -2 to get x = -8. -8 is your answer. Hope this helps!
