Answer:
first number= 19/5
second number= 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
first number= a
second number= b
a+3b=5 equation 1
b+2a=8 equation 2
using equation 2 we have
b=8-2a
using equation 1 we have
a+3(8-2a)=5
a+24-6a=5
24-5=6a-a
19=5a
a=19/5 = first number
so using b=8-2a
we have
b=8-2(19/5)
b=8-(38/5)
b=2/5 = second number
Answer:
1 1/10 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 4/5 gallon + 3/10 gallon
Get a common denominator of 10
4/5*2/2 + 3/10
8/10 +3/10
11/10
Change from an improper fraction to a mixed number
10/10 + 1/10
1 1/10 gallons
