x*(1.035) + (4,200-x)*(1.045) = 4,374.00

1.035x + 4,389.00 -1.045x = 4,374.00

15.00 = .01x

x = 1,500 so x (1,500) invested at 3.5% and

(4,200 - 1,500) (or 2,700) invested at 4.5%

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

1300

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount put in the station's tank = x

4(400 + x) = 8100 - x Remove the brackets

1600 + 4x = 8100 - x Subtract 1600 from both sides

1600 - 1600 + 4x = 8100 - 1600 - x Do the subtraction

4x = 6500 - x Add x to both sides

4x + x = 6500 - x + x

5x = 6500 Divide by 5

5x/5 = 6500/5

x = 1300

1300 gallons were added to the station's tank.

OleMash [197]

Answer:

<u>The most simplified form is 15√10</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's simplify the expression:

20√270 ÷ 4√3

20√9 * 30/ 4√3 (√270 = √9 * 30)

60 √30/ 4√3

(60 √3 * √10) / 4√3 (√30 = √3 * √10)

60/4 √10 ( We cancel √3 in the numerator and in the denominator)

15√10

<u>The most simplified form is 15√10</u>

What are the steps of adding and subtracting a fraction?

Darina [25.2K]

Step-by-step explanation: To add and subtract fractions with the same denominator, or bottom number, place the 2 fractions side by side. Add or subtract the numerators, or the top numbers, and write the result in a new fraction on the top. The bottom number of the answer will be the same as the denominator of the original fractions.
