Ray should buy the first one because it has the greater volume by 1,440 square inches.
Tank 1: 20x20x18=7,200
Tank 2: 40x12x12=5,760
7,200-5,760=1,440
Drop the percent sign so that you only have 96 then divide by 100 to get the decimal (or move the decimal place to the left two).
96% --- drop the percent
96 ----- move the decimal place over to or divide by 100
96/100
96.0
.96
X^2 + x - 6
------------- <= 0
x - 7
(x + 3)(x - 2)
---------------- <= 0
x - 7
2 critical values are x = -3 and x = 2
if x <= -3 the the function <= 0 so that's one part of the solution
also x >= 2
x must be < 7 if its = 7 then the function is indeterminate. and values between 2 and 7 will give negative valu to function
The answer is choice A.
