Henry has just moved to England and is trying to continue his lawn care business. He needs to buy gas for his lawnmower. He has a 5 gallon jug and two 3-quart cans to fill. Gas in England is sold in liters. How many liters of gas can he buy (round to the gallon)? [1 gal = 3.78 liters]

A total of 21.74 liters of gas that Henry has to buy in England.

Step-by-step explanation:

One gallon is equivalent to 3.78 liters and hence, 5 gallons will be equivalent to (5 × 3.78) = 18.9 liters.

Again, one quart of gas is equivalent to 0.9463 liters of gas and hence, 3 quarts of gas will be equivalent to (3 × 0.9463) = 2.839 liters of gas.

Therefore, a total of (2.839 + 18.9) = 21.74 liters of gas that Henry has to buy in England. (Answer)

u = -(6/7)w

step-by-step explanation:

place all values with 'u' on one side of the equation.

4u + 8w = - 3u + 2w

4u + 3u = 2w - 8w

further simplify the equation by solving the addition and subtraction.

7u = - 6w

make 'u' the independent variable by placing its co-efficient on the right-hand side.

u = - (6/7)w
