Answer:

18 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll find out how much of the total container was lost when pouring out by subtracting 2/3 from 1/2.

2/3 = 4/6

1/2 = 3/6

4/6 - 3/6 = 1/6

1/6 of the total amount the container could hold was lost when 3 gallons was poured out. This means that 1/6 of the container equals to 3 gallons. We can then simply multiply 3 by 6 to find the number of gallons of liquid the container can hold.

3 * 6 = 18 gallons

Checking my answer:

18 * 2/3 = 6 * 2 = 12

12 - 3 = 9

1/2 of 18 = 9

This means that our answer is correct.

Answer:

we conclude that:

$\frac{2p}{4p^2-1}\div \frac{6p^3}{6p+3}=\frac{1}{2p^3-p^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

$\frac{2p}{4p^2-1}\div \frac{6p^3}{6p+3}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:the\:fraction\:rule}:\quad \frac{a}{b}\div \frac{c}{d}=\frac{a}{b}\times \frac{d}{c}$

$=\frac{2p}{4p^2-1}\times \frac{6p+3}{6p^3}$

$=\frac{2p}{4p^2-1}\times \frac{2p+1}{2p^3}$

$\mathrm{Multiply\:fractions}:\quad \frac{a}{b}\times \frac{c}{d}=\frac{a\:\times \:c}{b\:\times \:d}$

$=\frac{2p\left(2p+1\right)}{\left(4p^2-1\right)\times \:2p^3}$

cancel the common factor: 2

$=\frac{p\left(2p+1\right)}{\left(4p^2-1\right)p^3}$

cancel the common factor: p

$=\frac{2p+1}{p^2\left(4p^2-1\right)}$

$=\frac{2p+1}{p^2\left(2p+1\right)\left(2p-1\right)}$

cancel the common factor: 2p+1

$=\frac{1}{p^2\left(2p-1\right)}$

Expanding

$=\frac{1}{2p^3-p^2}$

Thus, we conclude that:

$\frac{2p}{4p^2-1}\div \frac{6p^3}{6p+3}=\frac{1}{2p^3-p^2}$

Talia sells educational software for a yearly salary of $65,000 plus a 2.65% commission on her total sales. If Talia sells $2.5

Bad White [126]

Answer:

$131250

Step-by-step explanation:

Talia's earnings during one year are equal to her base yearly salary ($65000) added to her commission. Now, to know the commission it is necessary to find the 2.65% of her total sales ($2.5 million)

Step 1. Divide the total sales or 2,500,000 by 100 considering this represents the total or 100%

2,500,000 ÷ 100 = 25000

Step 2. Multiply this number by the specific percentage (2.65)

25000 x 2.65 = 66250

Now add the commission and the yearly salary

65000 + 66250 = 131250

Hence, total earnings of Talia were $131250

Answer:

The surface area of the prism is 276 in.²

If you are also looking for the volume of the prism, it is 280.

Step-by-step explanation:

It's hard to find the surface area and the volume of the prism if you're just looking at the net of the 3D shape. There are some unnecessary measurements that will definitely throw you off. I drew a sample prism so it's easier to solve. Check the linked image.

The formula in finding the surface area of a prism is SA = 2(wl + hl + hw), where w is for width, l is for length, and h is for height. The point of all of these calculations is to find the area of 3 different faces of the prism and then you add up all of the areas and multiply the sum by 2 to give you the surface area. Looks a lot but it's worth getting the answer right.

The formula in finding the volume of the prism is V = w * h * l, where w is for width, h is for height, and l is for length. Simple multiplication of 3 different sides and you'll get the volume. I hope this helps and if I am wrong please let me know! :D
