Answer:
1) Distribute 1.2 to 6.3 and -7x
2)Combine 3.5 and 7.56
3)Subtract 11.06 from both sides
Step-by-step explanation:
3.5 + 1.2(6.3 - 7x) = 9.38
Distribute 1.2 to 6.3 and -7x
3.5 + 1.2* 6.3 - 1.2 * 7x = 9.38
3.5 + 7.56 - 8.4x = 9.38
Combine 3.5 and 7.56
11.06 - 8.4x = 9.38
Subtract 11.06 from both sides
11.06 - 8.4x -11.06 = 9.38 - 11.06
-8.4x = -1.68
To find solution:
Divide both sides by (-8.4)
-8.4x/-8.4 = -1.68/-8.4
x = 0.02
Answer:
1 5/24 total gallons remain
Step-by-step explanation:
yellow: 4/3 - 3/4 = 16/12-9/12 = 7/12
green: 5/4 - 3/4 = 5/4-3/4 = 2/4
blue: 7/8 - 3/4 = 14/16-12/16 = 2/16
7/12 + 2/4 + 2/16 = 28/48 + 24/48 + 6/48 =
58/48 or 1 5/24
