Write the equation that you would use to solve for x. DO NOT SOLVE! I need this before the end of friday please
Fifteen points

3. 7x-1=125

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the lines are parallel, the alternate interior angles will be the same measurement. So, set them equal to each other.

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
