Answer:

x + y = 15

0.5x + 0.65y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

x = number of oranges

y = number of apples

total of apples and oranges is 15 so x + y = 15

total cost of apples and oranges is $9 so 0.5x + 0.65y = 9

Calculation

y = 15 - x

0.5x + 0.65(15-x) = 9

0.5x - 0.65x + 9.75 = 9

-0.15x = - 0.75

x = 5

y = 15 - x = 15 - 5 = 10

The gas tank of your car is 40% full. There are 8 gallons of gas in the tank. What is the capacity of the gas tank?
andreyandreev [35.5K]
Percentage by which the gas tank of the car is full = 40%
Amount of gas in the gas tank = 8 gallons
Let us assume the capacity of the gas tank = x gallons
Then
40% * x = 8
(40/100) * x = 8
4x/10 = 8
4x = 8 * 10
4x = 80
x = 80/4
   = 20 gallons
So the total capacity of the gas tank of the car is 20 gallons. I hope the procedure is clear to you.
