A fuel tank contains 1 3/4 gallons of gasoline. Casey adds 33 1/3 gallons of gasoline to the tank. How many gallons of gas does

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

35 1/12 gallons of gasoline

Step-by-step explanation:

so what you're going to do is take both of the fractions (3/4 and 1/3) and convert them into two fractions with the same denominator so you can add them easily. the closest number that you can convert them to would be a denominator of 12, so we would turn 3/4 into its equivalent of 9/12 and 1/3 would now be 4/12. now we add them and get 13/12, which is an improper fraction, so we would change that to 1 and 1/12. and finally, we add 1 1/12 + 1 + 33 and we would get 35 and 1/12 as our final answer :)

There are 850 Douglas fir and Ponderosa pine trees in a section of forest bought by Karamazov Logging Co. The company paid an av

ki77a [65]

Answer:

350 Douglas fir, 500 Ponderosa pine

Step-by-step explanation:

Let f = the number of fir trees

and p = the number of pine trees.

Then, we have two conditions:

(1) f + p = 850

(2) 300f + 225p = 217 500

(3) p = 850 -f Subtracted f from each side of (1)

(4) 300f + 225(850 - f) = 217 500 Substituted (3) into (3)

300f + 191 250 - 225f = 217 500 Distributed 225

75f + 191 250 = 217 500 Distributed the 7

75f = 26 250 Subtracted 191 250 each side

(5) f = 350

350 + p = 850 Substituted (5) into (1)

p = 500 Subtracted 350 from each side

The company bought 350 fir trees and 500 pine trees.

Check:

(1) 350 + 500 = 850 (2) 300 × 350 + 225 × 500 = 217 500

850 = 850 105 000 + 112 500 = 217 500

217 500 = 217 500

OK.

A triangular prism is shown below. the base of the prism is a right triangle.

Nimfa-mama [501]

The product is 60.

We start out with the information we have. This forms a right triangle, with one leg being 24, the other leg x, and the hypotenuse 30. Using the Pythagorean theorem we have

x²+24²=30²
x²+576=900

Subtract 576 from both sides:
x²+576-576 = 900-576
x²=324

Take the square root of each side:
√x²=√324
x=18

We know that the formula for the volume of a triangular prism is V=(1/2bh)H, where b is the base of the triangle, h is the height of the triangle, and H is the height of the prism. Substituting our known information we have:

720=(1/2*18*24)y
720=216y

Divide both sides by 216:
720/216 = 216y/216
3 1/3 = y

This means the product of x and y would be:
18(3 1/3)
18(10/3)
180/3
60
