X²-9x=36
minus 36 both sides
x²-9x-36=0
what 2 numbers multiply to -36 and add to -9
-12 and 3
(x-12)(x+3)=0
set to zero
x-12=0
x=12
x+3=0
x=-3
the number is either -3 or 12
Let x be the capacity of the tank then
3x/4-x/8 =15,
then x=24, so so far it has 3/4 *24 =18 so you need 6 gallons to fill it up
492,630. Add up or multiply. I think thats the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:
An expression is just a mathematical phrase. In this tutorial, you'll learn about two popular types of expressions: numerical and algebraic expressions. A numerical expression contains numbers and operations. An algebraic expression is almost exactly the same except it also contains variables.
in mathematics, an algebraic expression is an expression built up from integer constants, variables, and the algebraic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and exponentiation by an exponent that is a rational number)
