Well...this is a proportion problwm. for every 16 cups I have 1 gallon, so I can write that as:
16 cups
-----------
1 gallon
this value will be proportional to 1/4 a gallon equal "so many" cups. let's equal the unknown about of cups to x.
16 cups______ x cups
-----------.... = ..... ----------
1 gallon _____ 1/4 gallons
I can cross multiply to find x.
1 gallon • x cups = 16 cups • 1/4 gallons
16 times 1/4 is the same as 16/4, which equals 4.
1 gallon • x cups = 4 cups gallons
divide both sides by gallons
x cups = 4 cups
so! 1/4 of a gallon equals 4 cups.
Answer:
A function is a relation in which each input has only one output. In the relation, y is a function of x, because for each input x (1, 2, 3, or 0), there is only one output y.
Step-by-step explanation:
For every x there is exactly one y value. We can forgive a function if some values of x do not have a y, but if there is more than one y for even one value of x, then the relation is not a function.

Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
2(x-3), x=2
Since we know what x equals, plug it into the equation
2(2-3)
2(-1)
-2
