Answer: 7 gallons; 14 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of water in the first container be x.

Since one container holds 2 times as much as the other, the second container will be: = x × 2 = 2x

The total amount of water is 21 gallons. This means:

x + 2x = 21

3x = 21

x = 7 gallons

First container = 7 gallons

Second container= 2x = 2×7 = 14 gallons

If two similar polygons have perimeters of 36 and 21 inches.
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

91

Step-by-step explanation:

Two similar polygons, means a similarity would exist in both polygons

  • Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(l +w)
  • Perimeter of the larger rectangle = 36 (because it's the largest figure)
  • equation becomes  36 = 2(L + W)
  • since L = 14, it becomes = 36 = 2(14 +W)
  • 36 = 28 + 2W
  • 2W = 36 - 28 = 2w = 8
  • w = 4.

Now we assume that since the rectangles are similar, they would have similar dimensions, in this case Width. so with this, we find length  of smaller rectangle.

  • 21 = 2(L + 4) = 21 = 2L + 8
  • 2L = 21 - 8 = 2L = 13
  • L = 13/2 = 6.5.

lastly the product of the length of both polygons = 14 * 6.5 = 91.

Their Products length is 91

Sam put 3000 into saving it earned 6% simple interest annually after 6 years how much will Sam have
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

the future value is 4,080

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the future value under the simple interest is shown below:

As we know that

Future value = Present value × (1 + rate of interest × time period)

= 3,000 × (1 + 6 × 6%)

= 3,000 × (1 + 0.36)

= 3,000 × 1.36

= 4,080

Hence, the future value is 4,080
