A water tank holds 880 gallons but is leaking at a rate of 5 gallons per week. A second water tank holds 1,100 gallons but is leaking at a rate of 9 gallons per week. After how many weeks will the amount of water in the two tanks be the same?

62 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

What we need is to represent the ratios in expression

For example if we have 992 gallons and the leaking is 5 gallons per week, the expression for the gallons after every week is

992-5x

x is the weeks

And the other case the expressions is

1240-9x

The question is the weeks for the amount being the same, then every equation can be equal to Y and it represent the same amount

992-5x=y

1240-9x=y

in both the y is the same, then

992-5x=1240-9x

992-1240=-9x+5x

-248=-4x

-248/-4=x

62=X

and that is the weeks we need for the amount being the same in both tanks

62 weeks correct me if i'm wrong

Step-by-step explanation:

answer: the answer is (b) amie should have multiplied

step-by-step explanation: given a sphere and a cylinder with same radius and height.

let, 'r' be the radius of the cylinder and sphere and 'h' be the height of the cylinder. according to the question,

r = h.

now, the volume of the sphere will be

and the volume of the cylinder will be

therefore, we have

thus, ammie should have multiplied the volume of the sphere
