Answer:

Amount of gas that can be hold by Joe's tank = 16 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Joe's gas tank is 1/4 full. After he buys 6 gallons of gas, it is 5/8 full. Now we need to find about how many gallons can Joe's tank hold.

So let's find change that happened after filling the gas.

Change = (5/8 full) - (1/4 full)

Change = (5/8 - 1/4)  full

Change = (5/8 - 2/8)  full

Change = (5 - 2)/8  full

Change = 3/8  full

So that means 3/8 full happens in 6 gallons

then 1 full will happen in 6/(3/8) gallons = 6*(8/3) gallons = 48/3 gallons = 16 gallons

So the amount of gas that can be hold by Joe's tank = 16 gallons.

Answer:

75th term in the sequence is 227.

Step-by-step explanation:

75 term of A.P is

a_75= a+ (n-1)d

Given series is 5,8,11,14.

hence a= 5 d= 8-5 = 3 , a_75.

a_75 = 5+(75-1)3

= 5+ (74)3

= 5 +(222)

= 227

docker41 [41]

Answer:

d.  x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

<u />\sqrt{(x + 3)}÷ (x+8)(x-2) = 0

f(x) / g(x) = 0

Variable x cannot be equal to any of the values −8,2 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by (x−2)(x+8).

<u />\sqrt{(x + 3)} = 0 ------ square both sides

x + 3 = 0

solve for x:

x = -3
