Draw a picture to help you find the answers. When Andrew got in his car to drive home from work, be saw that his fuel gauge
indicated that the tank was1/2 full. When he pulled into his driveway, the fuel gauge
showed that he used 1/3 of the fuel that was in the tank before he started his trip home.
3) How full was the tank when Andrew arrived home?
4) If the fuel tank had 4 gallons of gasoline left when he got home, how many
gallons of gasoline can the fuel tank hold?

2/6 (1/3)

12 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

3) 1/2x1/3=1/6, so he'd used 1/6 of a tank.

1/2-1/6=

3/6-1/6=2/6.  So the tank was 2/6 full, or 1/3 full when he got home.

4) If it's 1/3 full and has 4 gallons, it can hold 12 gallons.  (4x3)

step-by-step explanation:

i took the test: )

for the friend request.

when a figure, such as triangle (xyz) is reflected over the line y = x to create x'y'z' the x-coordinates and y-coordinates of the original image (pre-image) will be reversed for the image. (e.g., (x, y) > (y, x)) this means that the pre-image position of the x- and y-coordinates switch places which in turn provides a mirror like image of the original xyz.  

i notice that when i draw a line segment from x to x', that the points are parallel from each other -- they are exactly across from each other and do not intersect with any other points.  

yes, think i would see the same characteristic if you drew the line segment connecting y with the reflecting line and then y' with the reflecting line because of the essence of reflections. because it is a mirror image, each point was effected the same way which leads me to conclude that they same would apply to y and y'.
