Answer:
18 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
the tank capacity is :
$71.98 ÷ $3.98 = 18 gallons
I would have to say SAS because they give 2 sides and an angle. Also 3:4 because the one side is 3 and add 1 for 4, same for 30 and 40.
22.5/(x-6) + 22.5/(x+6) = 9
multiply by x-6
=> (x-6)22.5/(x-6) + (x-6)22.5/(x+6) = 9(x-6)
=> 22.5 + (x-6)22.5/(x+6) = 9(x-6)
multiply by x+6
=> (x+6)22.5 + (x+6)(x-6)22.5/(x+6) = 9(x-6)(x+6)
=> (x+6)22.5 + (x-6)22.5 = 9(x-6)(x+6)
distribute
=> 22.5x+6(22.5) + 22.5x - 6(22.5) = 9(x^2 - 36)
=> 45x = 9x^2 - 9(36)
=> 0 = 9x^2 - 45x - 9(36)
divide by 9
=> 0 = x^2 - 5x - 36
=> 0 = x^2 - 5x - 36
=> 0 = (x - 9)(x + 4)
x=9 and -4
3/2 is the answer
i say this because you have to think of the problem as
4y=6x
divide the 4
y=6x/4
simplify
3/2
