On average, seawater contains approximately 1.2 ounces of salt per liter. how many gallons of seawater to the nearest tenth of a gallon would contain 2.5 pounds of salt?

10.6

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of salt in one liter is 1.2 ounces, meaning to make one pound (16 oz) it would take 13 1/3 liters of water.

For 2.5 pounds, it would be 2.5*16, or 40-- 40 liters for 2.5 pounds of salt.

40 liters in (U.S.) gallons is 40/ (approximately) 3.785 , or 10.5680, 10.6

step-by-step explanation:

x > 1.3

step by step:

8.5−0.9x> 9.8−1.9x

step 1: simplify both sides of the inequality.

−0.9x+8.5> −1.9x+9.8

step 2: add 1.9x to both sides.

−0.9x+8.5+1.9x> −1.9x+9.8+1.9x

1x+8.5> 9.8

step 3: subtract 8.5 from both sides.

1x+8.5−8.5> 9.8−8.5

1x> 1.3

step 4: divide both sides by 1.

1x/1 > 1.3/1
