20 gallons
First you have to find the ratio or unit rate so 105/15= 140/x x is the gasoline needed so when you cross multiply you get 2100/105x divide both sides by x and you get 20

How to solve this?<br>\int \frac { 4 - 3 x ^ { 2 } } { ( 3 x ^ { 2 } + 4 ) ^ { 2 } } d x

$\Large \mathbb{SOLUTION:}$

$\begin{array}{l} \displaystyle \int \dfrac{4 - 3x^2}{(3x^2 + 4)^2} dx \\ \\ = \displaystyle \int \dfrac{4 - 3x^2}{x^2\left(3x + \dfrac{4}{x}\right)^2} dx \\ \\ = \displaystyle \int \dfrac{\dfrac{4}{x^2} - 3}{\left(3x + \dfrac{4}{x}\right)^2} dx \\ \\ \text{Let }u = 3x + \dfrac{4}{x} \implies du = \left(3 - \dfrac{4}{x^2}\right)\ dx \\ \\ \text{So the integral becomes} \\ \\ = \displaystyle -\int \dfrac{du}{u^2} \\ \\ = -\dfrac{u^{-2 + 1}}{-2 + 1} + C \\ \\ = \dfrac{1}{u} + C \\ \\ = \dfrac{1}{3x + \dfrac{4}{x}} + C \\ \\ = \boxed{\dfrac{x}{3x^2 + 4} + C}\end{array}$
