Answer:
I think 5ft 6in tall is maria
So 15 gallons of gas brought it from 1/8 full to 3/4 full.
Let's change 3/4 to the equivalent fraction 6/8 so that the denominators are the same. (3/4 = 6/8)
So 15 gallons of gas brought it from 1/8 to 6/8 Those 15 gallons must be 5/8 of the tank's capacity 6/8 - 1/8 = 5/8
So 15 is 5/8 of what number? (This will tell us the capacity of the whole tank)
15 = 5/8n
Divide both sides by 5/8 (remembering to multiply by the reciprocal 8/5)
15 ÷ 5/8 = 15 x 8/5 = 18
So the tank holds 24 gallons and (since it is 3/4 full or has 18 gallons) it needs 6 gallons to fill the tank.
Check - at first 1/8 full (1/8 of 24 = 3) So we started with 3 gallons. 15 gallons added to the 3 gallons is 18 gallons. Now the tank is 6/8 (3/4 full). The remaining 1/4 (2/8) of a tank is the difference between 18 and it's capacity (24 gallons) so it will need 6 gallons to fill it up..
Step-by-step explanation:
???
what is the problem ? you don't know how to add, subtract or multiply yet ?
sum of 57 and 16 : 57 + 16 = 73
difference of 61 and 31 : 61 - 31 = 30
the product of the sum and the difference :
73 × 30 = 2190
The equation to model the above scenario is
+22x - 23 = 0
The perimeter of the expanded rectangle is 48 units
<h3>What is a rectangle?</h3>
A rectangle is a quadrilateral with its 4 angles 90°
Analysis:
First rectangle:
length = 10 + x
width = x
Second rectangle:
length = x + 14
width = x + 8
Area of expanded rectangle = 135 square unit
(x+8)(x+14) = 135
+ 8x + 14x + 112 = 135
+ 8x + 14x -23 = 0
+ 22x -23 = 0
+ 23x - x - 23 = 0
(x-1)(x+23) = 0
Therefore x = 1
Expanded length = 1+14 = 15
Expanded width = 1+8 = 9
Perimeter = 2(9+15) = 48 units
