Solve for w in the equation below.

A. w=rxy+z

B. w=(x/ry)+(z/r)

C. w=y(z+rx)

D. w=(x/ry)-(z/r)

Answer Explanation:

 We are asked to make w the subject of the formula.

First, we rearrange the equation by to ensure w is on the right hand of the equation.

Then, divide both sides by r

Multiply both sides by y

The above equation can be rearranged into

Thus, the formula for finding the value of w is (x/ry)-(z/r).

Therefore, the Correct Answer is D.

    B. 2 7/15

    C. 8 4/5

    D. 18 9/10

    Answer Explanation

    we are asked to find the number of gallons a full tank can hold. A full tank is equivalent to 1.

    Convert the mixed fraction into proper fraction as follows

    If we let x be the number of gallons in full tank, and setting up the proportion equation with the number of gallons on the numerator and fraction of tank on denominator as follows.

    Cross-multiply to find the value of x.

    Converting 189/10 to a mixed fraction is 18 9/10. Thus, when the tank is full, it holds 18 9/10 gallons of water.
