Answer: 30 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of gallons that are in a full tank be represented by x.

Since there are 6 gallons in a tank that is 20% full, this will be set up in an equation as:

20% × x = 6

20/100 × x = 6

0.2 × x = 6

0.2x = 6

x = 6/0.2

x = 30

There are 30 gallons in a full tank

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

f(x)=128-14x

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we started out with 128 ounces of milk.

Each day, Joann drinks 14 ounces of milk.

Therefore, the amount of milk left over after x days is 14 times x subtracted from 128.

Therefore, our function is:

f(x)=128-14x

And we're done!

Jack said that if you take a number and multiply it by a fraction, the product will always be smaller than what you started with
ELEN [110]

Answer:

Is not correct. The product not always will be smaller.

Step-by-step explanation:

A fraction could increase a number if you multiply it.  

If the numerator is higher to the  denominator,  it will increase it.  

If the numerator is smaller to the  denominator,  it will decrease it.

<u>For example,</u>

10 x 4/3

For fraction multiplication, multiply the numerators and then multiply the denominators to get

10×4/1×3=40/3= 13,33

13,33 is higher than 10.

5 x 10/3

For fraction multiplication, multiply the numerators and then multiply the denominators to get

5×10/1×3=50/3

16,66 is higher than 5.
