Answer:
X= -1 and x=5
Explanation:
Make it equal to zero
X-5=0
Then add five to both sides
X=5
For the other one do the same
X+1=0
Then subtract one on both sides
X=-1
Hope this helps!
Answer:
tank 1 : 19 gallons
tank 2 : 42 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
tank 1 : x
tank 2 : 2x+4 ( 4 more than <u>twice</u> the other )
x + ( 2x + 4 ) = 61
3x + 4 = 61 [ add x + 2x = 3x ]
3x = 57 [ subtract 4 on both sides ]
x = 19 [divide 3 on both sides ]
tank 1 : 19 gallons
tank 2 : 42 gallons
