This equation basically says that a number plus 3/5 equals 2 so we can simply:
2 - 3/5 = x
Therefore x equals 1 & 2/5 or 1.4

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
"When 200 gallons of oil were removed from a tank" algebraically looks like this:
V - 200.
"...the volume of oil left in the tank was 3/7 of the tank's capacity" algebraically looks like this:
3/7(V)
Therefore, the equation is
V - 200 = 3/7(V)
Begin by multiplying both sides by 7:
7(V - 200) = 3V and
7V - 1400 = 3V so
-1400 = -4V so
V = 350 gallons
That's if the volume of the oil in the tank was 3/7 of the tank's capacity.
For the other part of the problem, we set up the equation almost the same, except the 3/7 is a 1/2:
V - 200 = 1/2(V)
Multiplying both sides by 2 gives you
2(V - 200) = V and
2V - 400 = V so
-400 = -V so
V = 400
The vertical distance is 5 + 8 = 13
the horizantal distance is 3 +3 = 6
then just do pythag therom
6^2 + 13^2 = c^2
205 = c^2
<span>√205 = c

The total of two whole numbers one after another is 33. for example 10 + 11 (two consecutive integers) = 21
