The correct answer is:

Total capacity of tank in quarts:

20 gallons = 20 × 4 = 80 quarts

Gasoline used in quarts:

4 gallons 1 quart = (4 × 4) + 1 = 17 quarts

Gasoline left in the tank in quarts:

80 − 17 = 63 quarts

Gasoline left in the tank in gallons and quarts:

63 quarts = 63 ÷ 4 = 15 remainder 3 = 15 gallons 3 quarts

There are 4 quarts in a gallon so the amount used can be shown as 4 1/4, or 4.25 so to find out how much gas is left in the tank you simply subtract 4.25 from 20.

20-4.25

=15.75

There is 15.75, or 15 3/4, gallons of gasoline left in the tank.

The ratio of the sides of two similar octagons is 2:5. What is the ratio of the perimeters of these octagons?
Tom [10]
So we see the ratio of the sides of two similar octagons is 2:5 so let's say the first octagon has a side of 2 and the other has a side of 5. 2*8 = 16 and 5*8 = 40. 16:40 = 4:10 = and is again 2:5. So the answer is 2:5.

The table shows the relationship between a, the area of a rectangle, and h, its height, when the base remains constant.
olganol [36]

Answer:

a = 4h.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area (a) = base (b) * height (h).

When h = 2, a = 8:

a =  bh

6 = 2b

b = 4

The result 4 is the same for  h = 5, 7 and 12.

So the required equation is

a = 4h.
