Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
We will use following steps to measure exactly 4 gallons of water with the help of 5 gallons and 3 gallons empty jugs.
1). Fill 3 gallons jug completely.
2). Pour this 3 gallons of water into 5 gallons jug. Now we have 3 gallons of water in 5 gallons jug and 3 gallons jug empty.
We can add 2 gallons of water in the empty space of 5 gallons jug more.
3). Fill the 3 gallons jug with the water again.
4). Pour this water into 5 gallons jug which can hold 2 gallons of water more.
Now we have 5 gallons of jug filled fully and 1 gallon water remaining in the 3 gallons jug.
5). Empty the 5 gallons jug completely.
6). Pour the remaining 1 gallon of remaining water in 3 gallons jug into 5 gallons jug.
7). Fill the 3 gallons jug completely and pour it into 5 gallon jug.
8). Finally we have 4 gallons of water in the 5 gallons jug.

Answer:
x = 1.2375 or 99/90
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Distribute</u>
21 + 40(2x - 3)
21 + 80x - 120
<u>Step 2: Combine like terms</u>
21 + 80x - 120
80x - 99
<u>Step 3: Solve for x</u>
80x - 99 + 99 = 0 + 99
80x / 80 = 99 / 80
x = 1.2375
Answer: x = 1.2375 or 99/80

Answer:
1. x = 2
2. x = 61/25
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
5 (x - 2) - 3 (2 - x) = 0
-3 (2 - x) = 3 x - 6:
3 x - 6 + 5 (x - 2) = 0
5 (x - 2) = 5 x - 10:
5 x - 10 + 3 x - 6 = 0
Grouping like terms, 5 x + 3 x - 10 - 6 = (3 x + 5 x) + (-6 - 10):
(3 x + 5 x) + (-6 - 10) = 0
3 x + 5 x = 8 x:
8 x + (-6 - 10) = 0
-6 - 10 = -16:
8 x + -16 = 0
Add 16 to both sides:
8 x + (16 - 16) = 16
16 - 16 = 0:
8 x = 16
Divide both sides of 8 x = 16 by 8:
(8 x)/8 = 16/8
8/8 = 1:
x = 16/8
The gcd of 16 and 8 is 8, so 16/8 = (8×2)/(8×1) = 8/8×2 = 2:
Answer: x = 2

Solve for x:
3 (2 x - 7) + (7 x + 2)/3 = 0
Put each term in 3 (2 x - 7) + (7 x + 2)/3 over the common denominator 3: 3 (2 x - 7) + (7 x + 2)/3 = (9 (2 x - 7))/3 + (7 x + 2)/3:
(9 (2 x - 7))/3 + (7 x + 2)/3 = 0
(9 (2 x - 7))/3 + (7 x + 2)/3 = (9 (2 x - 7) + (7 x + 2))/3:
(9 (2 x - 7) + 2 + 7 x)/3 = 0
9 (2 x - 7) = 18 x - 63:
(18 x - 63 + 7 x + 2)/3 = 0
Grouping like terms, 18 x + 7 x - 63 + 2 = (18 x + 7 x) + (2 - 63):
((18 x + 7 x) + (2 - 63))/3 = 0
18 x + 7 x = 25 x:
(25 x + (2 - 63))/3 = 0
2 - 63 = -61:
(25 x + -61)/3 = 0
Multiply both sides of (25 x - 61)/3 = 0 by 3:
(3 (25 x - 61))/3 = 3×0
(3 (25 x - 61))/3 = 3/3×(25 x - 61) = 25 x - 61:
25 x - 61 = 3×0
0×3 = 0:
25 x - 61 = 0
Add 61 to both sides:
25 x + (61 - 61) = 61
61 - 61 = 0:
25 x = 61
Divide both sides of 25 x = 61 by 25:
(25 x)/25 = 61/25
25/25 = 1:
Answer: x = 61/25
