Then, round 2,376 to the nearest thousands
2,376 -> 2,000
Answer:
x = 2 or 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
-13/4 -x= 1/2x -1
Collect like terms
-13/4+1=1/2x+x
Using LCM
(-13+4)/4=(1+2x²)/2x
9/4=(1+2x²)/2x
Cross multiply
9(2x)=4(1+2x²)
18x=4+8x²
Turn into quadratic and solve
8x²-18x+4
Using formulae method
-b±(√b²-4ac)/2a
Where a=8, b= -18 and c=4
(-(-18)±(√(-18)²-4(8)(4))/2(8)
(18±(√324-128))/16
(18±√196)/16
(18±14)/16
(18+14)/16 or (18-14)/16
32/16 or 4/16
2 or 1/4
1/10x + 6 = 2/5x
6 = 2/5x - 1/10x
6 = 4/10x - 1/10x
6 = 3/10x
6 / (3/10) = x
6 * 10/3 = x
60/3 = x
20 = x <=== the gas tank can hold 20 gallons
