Answer: The correct option is
(E) 80,000.
Step-by-step explanation: Given that after adding 4,000 gallons of water to a large tank that was already filled to 
of its capacity, the tank was then at 
of its capacity.
We are to find the number of gallons of water that the tank hold when filled to capacity.
Let the tank can hold x gallons of water when filled to capacity.
Then, according to the given information, we have
Thus, the required capacity of the tank is 80,000 gallons of water.
Option (E) is CORRECT.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve Using the Quadratic Formula
4x^2 + 8x − 5 = 0
Use the quadratic formula to find the solutions.
−b ± √b^2 − 4 (ac)
-------------------------
2a
Substitute the values a = 4, b = 8, and c = −5 into the quadratic formula and solve for x.
−8 ± √82 − 4 ⋅ (4 ⋅ −5)
-------------------------
2 ⋅ 4
Simplify the numerator.
Raise 8 to the p ower of 2.
−8 ± √64 − 4 ⋅ 4 ⋅ −5
x= ---------------------------
2 ⋅ 4
Multiply −4 by 4.
−8 ± √64 − 16 ⋅ −5
x = -------------------------
2 ⋅ 4
Multiply −16 by −5.
−8 ± √64 + 80
x = -------------------
2 ⋅ 4
Add 64 and 80.
−8 ± √144
x = --------------
2 ⋅ 4
Rewrite 144 as 12^2.
−8 ± √122
x = ------------
2 ⋅ 4
Pull terms out from under the radical, assuming positive real numbers.
multiply 2 by 4
−8 ± 12
x= ------------
8
simplify
−2 ± 3
x= ---------
2
The final answer is the combination of both solutions.
x= 1/2, -5/2

Answer:
40%
Step-by-step explanation:
Original price = x
Sale = 20% off
20% / 100 = 0.2 to convert from a percent to a decimal
Sale = x - 20% of x = x - 0.2x = 0.8x
Sale price = y = 0.8x
Reduction of sale prices = 25% = 0.25
Reduction = y - 25% of y = y - 0.25y = 0.75y
End price in terms of original price (x):
0.75y = 0.75(0.8)x
= 0.6x
End price = 0.6 or 60% of original price, coming out to a 100-60 = 40% overall percentage reduction
Answer:
3 5/8 + 3/5w = t
Step-by-step explanation:
The puppy is gaining each week so, 3/5w
you want to include the original weight so, +3 5/8
equals total weight, = t
If you multiply 36 by four since there are 4 wheels for skateboard
you will get 144. That number is the total number of wheels you need to order and since they come in packs of 20 what you need to do is divide 144 by 20 and you will get 7.2. So obviously you can't order 7.20 packs of wheels so this means that 8 packs of wheels must be bought in order to ensure that all of the skateboards get wheels on them.
The answer is 8.
