Answer:
The 3rd choice: 2/3 tank - 1/6 tank = 1/2 tank
Step-by-step explanation:
I assume those numbers are fractions.
The gas tank of Wendy’s car was 2/3 full. She used 1/6 of a tank of gas when driving to and from work. Which equation shows how full the gas tank is now?
We subtract 1/6 from 2/3. We need to use the common denominator 6.
2/3 - 1/6 = 4/6 - 1/6 = 3/6
Now we reduce 3/6.
2/3 - 1/6 = 1/2
Answer: 2/3 tank - 1/6 tank = 1/2 tank
Answer:
x + y = 180
and,
x = 3y
Step-by-step explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Total area of the farm = 180 acre
x represents the acre in which corn is planted
y represents the acre in which wheat is planted
Thus,
Area of corn + Area of wheat = Total area of farm
x + y = 180 ................. (1)
also,
From the statement, farmer wants to plant three times as many acres of corn as wheat
we can conclude
Area of corn = 3 times the area of wheat
or
x = 3y ................(2)
So, we have system of linear equations that represent the situation as
x + y = 180
and,
x = 3y
Answer:
p ≥ 7/4
Step-by-step explanation:
p +1/4 - (1/4) ≥ 2 - (1/4)
p ≥ 7/4
of means times so you multiply the fractions
1 x 9 = 9
3 x 16 = 48 (we multiplied numerators and denominators)
9/48 = 3/16 (Simplify by dividing a multiple on both the numerator and denominator
