Answer:

27 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Our equation is: \frac{2x}{9} +12 = \frac{2x}{3}

What do we need to find: x

We need to first find x, so lets find x first.

12 =  \frac{2x}{3}  -  \frac{2x}{9}

=> 12 = \frac{6x}{9} - \frac{2x}{9}

=> 12 = \frac{4x}{9}

=> x = 27

Lets go back to our equation.

\frac{2(27)}{9} +12 = \frac{2(27)}{3}

We are going to simplify this before solving this. We are going to get:\frac{54}{9} +12 = \frac{54}{3}

=> 18 = 18

Therefore, we found x and we checked that our x value is correct. Now, we need to find how many gallons can the container can hold.

\frac{3x}{3} = a                                                           [a = gallons can the container hold]

=> x = a

Basically that means the container can hold 27 gallons of water.

Please give me brainliest if this is helpful ;D

Answer:

27 Gallons

Explanation:

2/9 of the container is already full, 12 gallons are added. After the 12 gallons are added, 6/9 is full.
12g (gallons) = 4/9 so,
12g + 12g = 24g or 8/9
1/9 = 3g
12g + 12g + 3g = 27 Gallons!!

1. The total area within any continuous probability distribution is equal to 1.00.
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

1. True

2. False.

3. True.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The total area within any continuous probability distribution is equal to 1.00: it is true because the maximum probability (value) is one (1), therefore, the total (maximum) area is also one (1).

<em>Hence, for continuous probability distribution: probability = area</em>.

2. For any continuous probability distribution, the probability, P(x), of any value of the random variable, X, can be computed: False because it has an infinite number of possible values, which can not be counted or uncountable.

<em>Hence, it cannot be computed. </em>

3. For any discrete probability distribution, the probability, P(x), of any value of the random variable, X, can be computed: True because it has a finite number of possible values, which are countable or can be counted.

<em>Hence, it can be computed. </em>

Answer:

First one: C. Second One:C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Kate purchased a car for $23,000. It will depreciate by a rate of 12% a year. What is the value of the car in 4 years?

a) $13,935.76

b) $12,874.57

c) $13,792.99

To solve this this is an exponential function. The price started at $23,000 and depreciates at 12% so the equation is f(x) = (23,0000)(1-0.12)^4. When calculated results with 13792.99328 which is C.

A rare coin is currently worth $450. The value of the coin increases 4% each year. Determine the value of the coin after 7 years.

a) $613.98

b) $546.78

c) $592.17

To solve this this is also an exponential function. The price started at $450 and  the coin increases 4% each year so the equation is f(x) = (450)(1+0.04)^7. When calculated results with 592.169300656 which is c.
