Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
"When 200 gallons of oil were removed from a tank" algebraically looks like this:
V - 200.
"...the volume of oil left in the tank was 3/7 of the tank's capacity" algebraically looks like this:
3/7(V)
Therefore, the equation is
V - 200 = 3/7(V)
Begin by multiplying both sides by 7:
7(V - 200) = 3V and
7V - 1400 = 3V so
-1400 = -4V so
V = 350 gallons
That's if the volume of the oil in the tank was 3/7 of the tank's capacity.
For the other part of the problem, we set up the equation almost the same, except the 3/7 is a 1/2:
V - 200 = 1/2(V)
Multiplying both sides by 2 gives you
2(V - 200) = V and
2V - 400 = V so
-400 = -V so
V = 400
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2) let the two numbers be x and y
x-y =15
(taking x to be big)
x = 3 (y)+1
i.e. x-3y =1
Subtracting we get
2y =14 or y =7
x =15+7 =22
Larger number is 22 and smaller number is 7

Alysha is 2 years younger than Bryce/
Let Alysha be x years old then Bryce would be x+2
Sum of their ages
=x+x+2 =28
2x+2 =28
2x=26
x=13
Hence Alysha is 13 years old and Bryce 14 years old.
Answer:
3+4+5+11= 56
Step-by-step explanation:
C. 118.2
1 and 2 make a complimentary angle, so 2=118.2
2 and 6 are corresponding, so angle 2=angle 6 (118.2 = 118.2)
