The gas tank in dad’s car holds 12 gallons. The gas tank in mom’s truck holds 50% more than that. How much gas does the truck’s

tank hold?

Answer:

<h2>Below, Hope this helps :)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The variable t represents the amount of gas in mom's truck. Since we need to find a number that is 50% more than 12, we use 1.5 (we would use 2 if we want 100% more, so it makes sense that we use 1.5, since we want to add 1/2 of 12 to 12. The answer is 18.)

Answer:

She should receive $3.56 from paying with a $10 bill

Step-by-step explanation:

The total cost of all her items<em> including sales tax</em> is

<u>$6.44</u>

You have to deduct this total cost from what she paid with.

<u>$10.00 - $6.44 = </u><u>$3.56</u>

Therefore,

Sara should receive $3.56 from paying with a $10 bill.

<h3>Answer: Slope = -3/4</h3>

slope = rise/run

rise = -3 ... move down 3 units

run = 4 .... move to the right 4 units

============================================

Work Shown:

m = slope

m = rise/run

m = (change in y)/(change in x)

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (-17-(-2))/(24-4)

m = (-17+2)/(24-4)

m = -15/20

m = -3/4 is the slope

----------------

It basically means "move down 3 units, and move to the right 4 units"

So, slope = rise/run = -3/4

rise = -3 = move down 3 units

run = 4 = move to the right 4

You could express the slope as a decimal, and that would be -3/4 = -0.75, but you lose the rise and run values. So I recommend you keep the fraction.

Another problem with decimals is that sometimes we could have approximations that aren't exact. For example, if the slope was 2/3, then that approximates to 0.667 which may cause rounding errors down the line. Though I should point out that decimals do have their advantages in some cases.

Use the distributive property to simplify: 5(a+3b-2)***For your answer, DON'T use spaces. *
Savatey [412]
The answer is 5a+15b-10

5 x a is 5a. 5 x 3b is 15b and 5 x -2 is -10.
You then put them together 5a+15b-10
