Answer:

2.45 gallons of gasoline were in the tank before.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The tank can hold 12\frac{3}{4} gallons of gasoline when completely full. He had some gas in the tank and added 10.3 gallons of gasoline to fill it completely.

We need to find: How many gallons of gasoline were in the tank before Javier added some?

For this, we need to subtract added gallons of gasoline from the capacity of the tank.

12\frac{3}{4}-10.3=\frac{51}{4}-10.3

=12.75-10.3

=2.45

Hence, 2.45 gallons of gasoline were in the tank before.

MATH Simplify the expression -6w + (-8) + 1 + (-7w)
Luba_88 [7]

Answer: -13w - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

-6w + (-8) + 1 + (-7w)

Combine the like terms

-8 + 1 = -7

-6w + (-7) + (-7w)

-6w + (-7w) = -13w

-13w + (-7)

However, because adding a negative number is the same as subtracting the number as a positive, you can just make it -13w - 7

Can I get some help with 4) and 5) plz
bulgar [2K]
Plan 1 is the best choice because plan 2 would be an extra $120.00 more for the year.

No because Pam is reading 42 pages every hour so in 5 hours she would have only read 210 pages. Zack is reading 45 pages in an hour so he would finish just under 5 hours.

A 13 L solution that was 12% vinegar was mixed with a 9 L solution that was 70% vinegar. What is the concentration of the new mi
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

The concentration is simply 36%

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are concerned with calculating the concentration of a new mixture formed from mixing some liters of each of two vinegar variants of different concentrations.

We proceed as follows;

The concentration of the new solution will contain 12% of 13L vinegar A and 70% of 9L vinegar B

13L of vinegar A will contain 13 * 12% = 13 * 0.12 = 1.56

9L of 70% vinegar B will contain 9 * 70% = 9 * 0.7 = 6.3

Now, the new mixture has a total volume of 13 + 9 = 22L

The concentration of the new mixture will thus be;

(1.56 + 6.3)/22

= 0.357 and that’s approximately 0.36 or simply 36%
