Define a variable, set up an equation, then solve.
Lynn put 3 7/8 gallons of gas in her gas tank. If there are now 18 1/6 gallons in the tank, how many gallons did she start with?
x - gallons she started with

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

14.3 gallons      = 4 + 7.25/25  or 14.29 gallons.

Explanation:

18 1/6 gallons - 3 7/8 = 14.29

18 - 3 = 15

1/6 - 7/8 = 15 - 0.70833333333 = 14.2916666667

You need to be careful here if you use basic subtraction, simply as two minus would change to addition.

Answer 2
First change the mixed number of gallons into improper fractions.

3 7/8 ——> 31/8
18 1/6 ——> 109/6

Then find the LCM ( Lowest Common Multiple) in this case of the denominators it would be 24.

Convert both fractions as a factor of 24;

31/8 ——> 93/24
109/6 ——> 436/24

Then you want to take away the amount she was left with from how many she had added;

436 93 343
——— minus ——— = ———
24 24 24


As a mixed number this could be written

7
as 14 —-
24

Hope this helped!! Much love and good luck <33 :)

Sean and Evan are selling rolls of wrappign paper to raise money for new football uniforms. Evan has sold seven more than one-half the number of rolls that Sean has. If they have sold a total of 121 rolls, how many has Evan sold?
x - Rolls sold by Evan

Answers

Let x be the number of rolls sold by Sean.

We are given that Evan has sold 7 more that one-half the number of rolls that Sean sold.

Evan has sold 1/2x + 7 rolls.

Therefore, we have:

x + (0.5x + 7)  = 121

1.5x = 121 - 7

x = 114/1.5

x = 76

Find
y
'
and then find the slope of the tangent line at
(
2
,
225
)
. Round the slope and y-intercept to 3 decimal place.

Answers

Since we are given the point, all we need to find is the slope to discover the tangent line.
To find the slope, you plug in 2 for y’ as it is the x-value of the point.

y’ = 2((2)^2+2(2)+7)(2(2)+2) = 180

Plug in the point and the slope in the point-slope formula

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 225 = 180(x - 2)

Solve for y

y = 180x - 360 + 225

y = 180x - 135

Answer:

Hello

Step-by-step explanation:

You can take away the decimals

for example 0.33 x 0.7

do 33 x 7

which is 231

the 0.33 has 2 decimal spaces because there are 2 digits after the point

0.7  has 1 decimal place because there is 1 digit after the point.

so in total, there is 3 decimal

because you do 2 + 1

3

from the left, you count backwards and add the decimal point

the final answer should be 0.231

how do -11.5 and -9.5 compare? choose the correct symbol.
a: <
b: >
c: =

Answers

Answer:

-11.5 < -9.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The larger the negative number, the less value. So when you compare -11.5 to -9.5, -9.5 is larger in value.

-9.5 is larger because -9.5 is closer to zero which is the midpoint in the number line. And -11.5 is away from 0 so, -9.5 is bigger

Enter your answer as a mixed number in simplest form.

Answers

answer: p=-530 2/5

ex:

The mixed number is  [tex]-14 \frac{4}{7}[/tex]

What are Mixed Numbers?

A mixed number is a whole number, and a proper fraction represented together. A mixed number is formed by combining three parts: a whole number, a numerator, and a denominator. The numerator and denominator are part of the proper fraction that makes the mixed number.  

Given data ,

[tex]\frac{p}{1\frac{3}{7} } = -10.2[/tex]

To solve for p ,

Multiply by  [tex]1\frac{3}{7}[/tex]  on both sides we get ,

p = [tex]-10.2[/tex] × [tex]1\frac{3}{7}[/tex]

Now , [tex]1\frac{3}{7}[/tex]  can be written as the improper fraction form as  [tex]\frac{10}{7}[/tex]

So ,

p =  [tex]-10.2[/tex] × [tex]\frac{10}{7}[/tex]

p =  [tex]\frac{-102}{7}[/tex]

Now , the improper fraction [tex]\frac{-102}{7}[/tex]  can be represented by the mixed number as  [tex]-14 \frac{4}{7}[/tex]

Hence , The mixed number is  [tex]-14 \frac{4}{7}[/tex]

Which of the following numbers is between - 3/4 and 5/8 ?

Answers

Answer:

I believe that the answer is -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The number which falls under the inequality -3/4 < x < 5/8 is when x = -1/2

The correct answer is Option D.

Given data:

The number x is between -3/4 and 5/8.

So, the inequality is -3/4 < x < 5/8.

When comparing fractions, we consider their relative positions based on their magnitudes. Starting from the left, -3/4 represents a point closer to negative infinity, followed by -1/2, and then 5/8, which is closer to positive infinity.

Visually, imagine the number line where -3/4 is to the left, 5/8 is to the right, and -1/2 is positioned between them. Since -1/2 is greater than -3/4 and less than 5/8, it falls within the specified range. The choice -1/2 satisfies the condition and can be identified as the number between -3/4 and 5/8.

Hence, the number is x = -1/2.
