Pour 4 times of 124-gallon into a big jug.
Amount of water = 124 x 4 = 496 gallons
Then use the 45-gallon jug to scoop out the water 11 times.
Amount of water scooped out = 11 x 45 = 455 gallons
Water remaining = 496 - 450 = 1 gallon.
Answer:
{-1/8, 1/8}
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve |a|-3/4=-5/8 for |a|: Add 3/4 to both sides of this equation, obtaining:
|a| - 6/8 + 6/8 = -5/8 + 6/8, or |a| = 1/8. This absolute value function has two components:
a = 1/8 and a = -1/8.
