Greg bought 19 11/16 gallons of gas. what decimal should the meter on the gas pump read? answer quick

Division is the process whereby a number can be reduced to a smaller form or version of itself.

The decimal the meter on the gas pump should read is 19.6875 gallons

We would be applying the division operation to the question

We are given: 19 11/16  and we are asked to convert this to decimal.

To find the decimal, we divide the fraction first.

11   ÷ 16 = 0.6875

Hence:

gallons = 19 + 0.6875

= 19.6875 gallons

Therefore, the decimal the meter on the gas pump should read is 19.6875 gallons

Thus, the gas pump should read 19.6875 gallons, which in reality would display to two decimal points:  19.69 gallons.

the system of inequalities is

step-by-step explanation:

step 1

find the equation of the dashed line

we have the points

(0,0) and (3,1)

the line passes through the origin, so, is a direct variation

find the slope

the equation of the dashed line is

the solution of the inequality a s the shaded area above the dashed line

therefore

the equation of the inequality a is

step 2

find the equation of the solid line

we have the points

(4,0) and (0,4)

find the slope

the equation of the solid line is

the solution of the inequality b s the shaded area below the solid line

therefore

the equation of the inequality b is

step 3

the system of inequalities is
