Answer:

The correct answers are:

0.95g

g - 0.05g

(1 - 0.05)g

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of last week's rain = g inches

this week = 5% decrease on last week's amount

5% of last week's amount = 5/100 × g = 0.05g

∴ This week's amount of rain = 0.05g decrease

∴ Amount of rain this week = (Amount of rain last week) - 0.05g

∴ Amount of rain this week = g - 0.05g

This can be simplified by factorizing the common term "g"

g - 0.05g = g(1 - 0.05) = 0.95g

a tank is 4÷5 full of water. after drawing off 190 litees of water,it is just 1÷6 full. what is the capacity of the tank​
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Let's have the capacity be c. The tank is currently at 4/5c. We subtract 190 and then we are at 1/6c. Let's set this up as an equation and solve it.

4/5c-190=1/6c

We want to get the c all by itself to see the capacity of the tank. Let's get all of the c values on the left side of the equation and the numbers on the right by using inverse operations.

4/5c-190=1/6c

Add 190 to both sides.

4/5c=1/6+190

Subtract 1/6 from both sides.

19/30c=190

Divide both sides by 19/30.

c=300

So, the capacity of the tank is 300 liters of water.

Have a wonderful day and keep on learning! :D
