Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
a²+b²=c² so: 33²+15²=x²
1089+225=x²
1314=x²
take the square root of both sides
36.249=x or

=x
Answer:
$0.40
Step-by-step explanation:
20 pounds = $8.00
1 pound = $8.00÷20
1 pound = $0.40
Percentage by which the gas tank of the car is full = 40%
Amount of gas in the gas tank = 8 gallons
Let us assume the capacity of the gas tank = x gallons
Then
40% * x = 8
(40/100) * x = 8
4x/10 = 8
4x = 8 * 10
4x = 80
x = 80/4
= 20 gallons
So the total capacity of the gas tank of the car is 20 gallons. I hope the procedure is clear to you.
