Mathematics
1 answer:
horsena [70]3 years ago
6 0

Answer

y = (1/4)x - 5                 or     4y - x + 20 = 0

Explanation

To get the rule required, we interpret the sentence and write it in a mathematical form.

5 less than one fourth of x is y  

one fourth of x ⇒ (1/4)x

5 less than one fourth of x is y  ⇒  (1/4)x - 5 = y

y = (1/4)x - 5

4y = x - 20

4y - x + 20 = 0

If a water tank already contains 55 gallons of water when baxter begins to fill it and water is flowing in at a rate of 8 gallon
saw5 [17]

Answer:

I think it would be 55+8x. I hope this helps. :)

Step-by-step explanation:

55 gallons of water

8 gallons per minute

It would be 55 gallons (the original amount in the tank) plus 8 gallons per minute. (8x)

x = how many minutes the tank is being filled up more.

so if you were to fill up the tank another 5 minutes, the equation would be 55+8(5)

55+40

95 would be the answer.

Find the volume of a cylinder with a diameter of 8 inches and a height that is three times the radius.
Eddi Din [679]

Step-by-step explanation:

volume = pi x radius² x height

okay so the cylinders diameter is 8 inches

diameter divided by 2 is radius so 8/2 = 4

so 3 times the radius will be 3x4 = 12

use the formula above and then you will get your answer

The football team ordered 2 pizzas, they didn't eat 1/12 of one pizza and 2/4 of the other. How much pizza was left?
kodGreya [7K]
To equally divide the pizzas, let's use a similar point to base on the remaining pizzas. On the first pizza 1/12 was not eaten an the other was 2/4. Use 12 as the base parts. 1/12 +2/4. 2/4 is equal to 1/2, so let's used 6/12 (also 1/2) to replace 2/4 to add both fractions. 1/12+6/12=7/12.
