Question 15: x = 17

Question 16: area = 5610 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 15:

The perimeter is the sum of all sides of a triangle.

It is given that the perimeter is 374 units.

Add all the like terms.

Subtract 17 from both sides.

Divide by 21 from both sides.

Question 16:

The area of a triangle can be found by using the following formula:

(where a is the area, b is the base, and h is the height)

Using the value of x you just found previously (17), you can calculate the base and height by substituting 17 with x in their respective equations.

Now that you found the base and height, substitute the values, 134 and 75, into the area of a triangle formula.

use an equation of ratios to determine the amount of gas needed to fill the tank.

    0.2             0.8

  =    

288.75             x

                                                              231 gal

so, 0.2x = (0.8)(288.75 gal), and x = = 1155 gal.

                                                                0.2

it would take 1155 gal. to fill the tank.

the cost would be

1155 gal         $3

* = $3465   (answer)

      1           1 gal

hope this you
