No, because 11.6/2 is 5.8 so 5.8 is half of the tank. if it uses 1.45 per hour and it's used for 3.5 hours there will only be 5.075

Answer: NO because 5.075g (gasoline available after 3.5 hours) < 5.8g( half full tank)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to solve this problem we have to calculate how many gallons has a half-full tank. If the tank holds 11.6 gallons we have to divide it by 2.

  • 11.6 /2 = 5.8 gallons (half-full tank)

So, to know if the tank is more than half full of gasoline after 3.5 hours we have to multiply the gallons used in an hour (1.45) by the amount of time (3.5) and compare.

  • 1.45 g/h x 3.5 h = 5.075

In conclusion, after 3.5 hours the the tank is not more than half full of gasoline, because 5.075 < 5.8.

Feel free to ask for more if it´s necessary or if you did not understand something.

Consider this system of equations. Which equation represents the first equation written in slope-intercept form?
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

y= 5/2x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

5x   -   2y   =   10

-5x                  -5x (Subtract both sides by 5x to leave y by itself)

-2y = -5x + 10

-2y/-2 = -5/-2 + 10/-2

(Divide both sides by -2 to leave y with no coefficient. -5/-2 = 5/2 because there are two negatives. 10/-2 = -5.

y = 5/2 - 5
