Let V = volume of the container.
Translate English to math (equation):
(1/4)V + 9 = (5/8)V
Multiply by 8
2v + 72 = 5V
Subtract 2V from each side
3V = 72
V = 24
The container can hold 24 gallons of water.
Step-by-step explanation:
For a quadratic y = ax² + bx + c, where y is the height and x is horizontal distance, the highest point is at x = -b / (2a). The horizontal distance it travels before landing is the x-intercept.
0/12
1/4+1/6=5/12
1/4=3/12
1/6=2/12
2/12+3/12=5/12-5/12=0
I did an entire formula for you thank me and give me best answer.
