So we know the tank already has 5 gallons and we need 9. This means we need 4 more gallons in order to fill up the tank.
If 1/4 gallon is being filled per minute we need to find out how many 1/4 gallons makes up 4 gallons in total.
4 of the 1/4 gallons makes up 1 whole gallon. So since we need 4 whole gallons we would need 16 of the 1/4 gallons.
This means that it will take 16 minutes for the tank to hold 9 gallons of water.
Answer:
yes???
Step-by-step explanation:
your question either doesn't make sense or I just don't know
-converting to a common denominator
The terms -c of the left side was converted to -4ac/4a to have the same denominator of b^2/4a.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y = 60
x-y = 8
------------
2x = 68
x = 34
y = 60-x = 26
Answer:
84 sq meters
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Approach
In order to solve this problem, one will have to divide the figure up into simple shapes. A picture is attached showing how the shape is divided up for this answer. Find the area of each region, then add up the results to find the total area.
2. Area of Region 1
As one can see, the length of (Region 1), as given is (6), the width is (3). To find the area multiply the length by the width.
Length * width
6 * 3
= 18
3. Area of Region 2
In (Region 2), the length is given, (12). However, one must find the width, this would be the size of the total side, minus the width of (Region 1). Multiply the length by the side to find the area.
Length * width
= 12 * (8 - 3)
= 12 * 5
= 60
4. Area of Region 3
In (Region 3), the length of the figure is (2), the width is (3). To find the area, multiply the length by the width.
Length * width
= 2 * 3
= 6
5. Total area
Now add up the area of each region to find the total rea,
(Region 1) + (Region 2) + ( Region 3)
= 18 + 60 + 6
= 84
