Take 9.5 gallons 6 1/3 poured out how much water is left in the tank
elena55 [62]
We can first convert 9.5 into fraction :

9.5= 9 1/2

Then we can use deduction to find out the answer:

9 1/2 - 6 1/3

=19/2 - 19/3

We change it to the same denominator:

=19×3/6 - 19×2/6

= 57/6 - 38/6

= 19/6

Therefore there are 19/6 or 3 1/6 gallons left in the tank.

Hope it helps!

An architect increases the radius of a circle window by 20 percent. By what percent
ale4655 [162]

Answer: 44%

Step-by-step explanation:

For a circle of radius R, the area is written as:

A = pi*R^2

Where pi = 3.14

If we increase the radius by 20%, the new radius will be:

R´ = R + 0.20*R = 1.20*R

The new area will be:

A´ = pi*(1.20*R)^2 = (1.20)^2*pi*R^2

   = 1.44*pi*R^2

And pi*R^2 = A, the original area, then_

A´ = 1.44*A = A + 0.44*A

This means that the percentage in which the area increased is:

0.44*100% = 44%

Which polynomial correctly combines the like terms and puts the given polynomial in standard form?
Minchanka [31]

Answer: -5x^3y^3+8x^4y^2-7xy^5+x^2y^4+8x^6

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x^3y^3+8x^4y^2-xy^5-2x^2y^4+8x^6+3x^2y^4-6xy^5

-5x^3y^3+8x^4y^2+(-xy^5-6xy^5)+(-2x^2y^4+3x^2y^4)+8x^6

-5x^3y^3+8x^4y^2+(-7xy^5)+(x^2y^4)+8x^6

-5x^3y^3+8x^4y^2-7xy^5+x^2y^4+8x^6
