Answer: 14 gallons of gasoline.
Step-by-step explanation:
given data:
25(x + 3) = 424
where x is the number of gallon of gasoline needed to purchase.
Solution.
25(x + 3) = 424
first we open the bracket
25x + 75 = 424
collect like terms
25x = 424 – 75
25x = 349
divide both sides by 25
25x/25 = 349/25
x = 13.96
x = 14
mathew needs to get 14 gallons of gasoline.
10 kilometers is equal to a little over 6 miles. And 6 > 5, therefore 10 kilometers is your answer.
Let s be the side length of the square. The dimensions of the rectangle are three times the side of the square (i.e. 3s), and two less than the side of the square (i.e. s-2).
So, the area of this rectangle is

The area of the square is
, and we know that the two areas are the same, so we have

The solution s=0 would lead to the extreme case where the rectangle and the square are actually a point, so we accept the solution s=3.
First, convert 4 feet into inches - 48 inches. Then, divide 48 by 14 to get 3.43, so he can have 3 14-inch long pieces. To get the left over out of a foot, take 14 x 3 to get 42, then subtract 42 from your original 48 inches to get 6 inches left, which is half of a foot.
