Answer:

80 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

24 liters is the difference between 2/5 full and 1/5 full.

Let x = number of liters in full tank.

2/5 x - 1/10 x = 24

4/10 x - 1/10 x = 24

3/10 x = 24

1/10 x = 8

x = 80

Answer: 80 liters

Simplify 3(7t-5) - 2t = 4​
Inga [223]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3(7t - 5) - 2t = 4

3*7t - 3*5 - 2t = 4

21t  - 15   - 2t = 4          {combine like terms}

21t - 2t - 15     = 4

         19t - 15 = 4          {Add  15 to both sides}

            19t    = 4 + 15

            19t     = 19    {Divide both sides by 19}

                   t = 19/19

t = 1

Casey orders 3 pizzas and 2 orders of breadsticks for a total of 30.00. Rachel orders 2 pizzas and 3 orders of breadsticks for 2
barxatty [35]

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

x=pizza

y= breadsticks

3x+2y=30

2x+3y=25

first we myltiply the top equation with 3 and then w emultiply the lower equation with -2 so it is

9x+6y=90

-4x-6y= -50

now we can add them together and the y contracts

5x=40

now we divide it by 5

x=8

So pizza costs 8
