Answer:

  (x | x = 0.5 or x = 4.5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation resolves to two:

  2x -5 = 4

  2x = 9 . . . . . . add 5

  x = 9/2 = 4.5 . . . . divide by 2

and ...

  2x -5 = -4

  2x = 1 . . . . . . add 5

  x = 1/2 = 0.5 . . . . divide by 2

Then the solution set is ...

  (x | x = 0.5 or x = 4.5} . . . . . . matches the first choice

A tank currently holds 5 gallons of water. It is being filled at the rate of 1/4 gallon per minute. How long will it take for th
Verdich [7]
So we know the tank already has 5 gallons and we need 9. This means we need 4 more gallons in order to fill up the tank.

If 1/4 gallon is being filled per minute we need to find out how many 1/4 gallons makes up 4 gallons in total.

4 of the 1/4 gallons makes up 1 whole gallon. So since we need 4 whole gallons we would need 16 of the 1/4 gallons.

This means that it will take 16 minutes for the tank to hold 9 gallons of water.
