Two tanks contain equal amount of liquid. They are connected by a pipe and 2500 gallons is pumped from tank 1 to tank 2. When the pumping is done, one tank then contains 5 times as
much as the other. How many gallons did each tank contain at the start?

3750

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the tank contain x gallons of water.

when pumping is done, then tank 1 contain x-2500 gallons

and tank 2 contain x+2500 gallons.

according to question,

5(x - 2500) = x + 2500

or, 5x -12500 =x+ 2500

or, 5x - x =2500+12500

or, 4x =15000

or, x= 3750

hence each tank contains 3750 gallons.

10.416 m/s

step-by-step explantion:

distance=100m

time= 9.6s

average speed=100/9.6

=10.416 m/s

so firstly, we need to isolate the y variables to be able to solve these inequalities. firstly, add 0.5x on both sides of the first inequality and subtract 1.5x on both sides of the second inequality:

now since the slope is positive for the first inequality, this means that the line going upwards belongs to the first inequality, and the line going downwards belongs to the second inequality.

next, since y ≥ in the first inequality, this means that the shaded region will be above the first inequality's line, thus shading regions a and b.

next, since y ≤ in the second inequality, this means that the shaded region is going to be below this line, thus shading regions a and c.

since both lines shade region a, this means that region a is the solution.
