You would subtract 15 on both sides and then you would have 2x=-14 then you divide both sides by 2 and x would equal -7
So we start out by finding out what 80% of 500 is by,
500 * .80 = 400
So if 80% is 400 that means that there is still space available for 100 more gallons!
How the heck did we know that?!?
simple 500- 400= 100
So that leaves us knowing that there are 100 gallons left that can be held!! :)
So your answer is 100 gallons!!
I hope that this helped!
Answer:
The equation would be x = 3y + 8 where x is the larger number and y is the smaller one :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
3 1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay, this is a standard division problem, so our equation is:
2 2/5 ÷ 3/4
but then we have to covert the mixed number to an improper fraction:
12/5 ÷ 3/4
do the cross thingy:
4/5 x 4/1 = 16/5 = 3 1/5
So Jason can cut 3 1/5 sections or 3 if you round
