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

Please solve this i really need this

Answer:

a = 8 (to nearest whole number)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

m<B = 36°

m<C = 104°

c = 12

Required:

a

SOLUTION:

✔️First find m<A:

m<A = 180 - (104 + 36)

m<A = 40°

✔️Find a using Sine Rule:

Thus:

\frac{a}{sin(A)} = \frac{c}{sin(C)}

Plug in the values

\frac{a}{sin(40)} = \frac{12}{sin(104)}

Multiply both sides by sin(40)

\frac{a}{sin(40)} * sin(40) = \frac{12}{sin(104)} * sin(40)

a = \frac{12*sin(40)}{sin(104)}

a = 8 (nearest whole number)

Which could be the area of the base of the triangular prism?     [Not drawn to scale]6 ft210 ft212 ft220 ft2
Alexus [3.1K]
For this case, the first thing we must observe is that the base of the prism is a triangle.
 The area of the triangle is given by:
 A = (1/2) * (b) * (h)&#10;
 Where,
 b: base of the triangle
 h: height of the triangle
 Substituting values we have:
 A = (1/2) * (4) * (3)&#10;&#10;A = 6 ft ^ 2
 Answer:
 
The area of the base of the triangular prism could be:
 
A = 6 ft ^ 2
