X=lottie's aples

give 1/4 of them to fred
origianly had 4/4, but gave 1/4 away so now has (3/4)x
eats 5 of them
(3/4)x-5
now she has 7 more than fred (fred has (1/4)x

so

(3/4)x-5 is 7 more than (1/4)x
(3/4)x-5=7+(1/4)x
add 5 to both sides
(3/4)x=12+(1/4)x
minus (1/4)x from both sides
(2/4)x=12
(1/2)x=12
times 2/1 both sides
2/2x=24
x=24

she had 24 to begin with

Diameter of a circle with a circumference of 55 feet rounded to the nearest hundredth
Ket [755]

Answer:

17.51

Step-by-step explanation:

Notes: Circumference= 2 times pi times r

Diameter is double the radius (2r)

How to solve: You just need to divide 55 feet by pi

2(pi)(r)/( pi) = 55/(pi)

2r = 17.51

diameter = 17.51

As a large truck fills its gas tank, the volume of gas, in gallons, can be modeled with the linear function v = 4.8m + 8.2, wher
jek_recluse [69]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

we are told that the expression is

v = 4.8m + 8.2

where  v is the volume of gas and

            m is the number of minutes it has been filling.

Step two:

Required

<em>Asumming the volume is in Liters</em>

the interpretation of the terms in the expression for the volume

4.8 means that  for every minute 4.8L of gas enters the gas tank

hence the rate of filling is 4.8L/min

8.2 means that there is 8.2L of gas already in the tank before the filling started.
