Step-by-step explanation + Answer:
x = 1st job
y = 2nd job
x + y = 22......x = 22 - y
7x + 8.25y = 171.50
7(22 - y ) + 8.25y = 171.50
154 - 7y + 8.25y = 171.50
-7y + 8.25y = 171.50 - 154
1.25y = 17.50
y = 17.50 / 1.25
y = 14 <== 14 hrs at the 8.25 per hr job
x + y = 22
x + 14 = 22
x = 22 - 14
x = 8 <=== 8 hrs at the 7 per hr job
So 15 gallons of gas brought it from 1/8 full to 3/4 full.
Let's change 3/4 to the equivalent fraction 6/8 so that the denominators are the same. (3/4 = 6/8)
So 15 gallons of gas brought it from 1/8 to 6/8 Those 15 gallons must be 5/8 of the tank's capacity 6/8 - 1/8 = 5/8
So 15 is 5/8 of what number? (This will tell us the capacity of the whole tank)
15 = 5/8n
Divide both sides by 5/8 (remembering to multiply by the reciprocal 8/5)
15 ÷ 5/8 = 15 x 8/5 = 18
So the tank holds 24 gallons and (since it is 3/4 full or has 18 gallons) it needs 6 gallons to fill the tank.
Check - at first 1/8 full (1/8 of 24 = 3) So we started with 3 gallons. 15 gallons added to the 3 gallons is 18 gallons. Now the tank is 6/8 (3/4 full). The remaining 1/4 (2/8) of a tank is the difference between 18 and it's capacity (24 gallons) so it will need 6 gallons to fill it up..
The statements that are true are:
A. m<AGB = 19°
D. <BGD is a right angle
<h3>What is a Right Angle?</h3>
A right angle is an angle that measures 90 degrees.
Given the diagram, where:
m<AGC = 38°,
m<CGD = 71°,
m<FGC = 147°
We have the following measures:
1/2(m<AGC) = m<AGB
1/2(38) = 19°
m<CGD + m<AGC = m<BGD
Substitute
71 + 19 = m<BGD
90 = m<BGD
m<BGD = 90° [this is a right angle].
Therefore, the statements that are true are:
A. m<AGB = 19°
D. <BGD is a right angle
