1 min = 4cups
60 min = 1hr
4×60 =240
1hr=240 cups
2hrs = 480 cups
1 gallon = 16 cups
480/16 = 30 gallons

The caterer should bring 30 gallons of tea

In 2 hours you would need 30 gallons of tea.
Explanation:
4cups/per minute x 1 gallon/16cups x 60minutes/1 hour = 240gallons/16hours
240gallons/16hours = 15gallons/1 hour
15gallons/1 hour x 2 = 30 gallons/2 hours

∆PQR and ∆SQT are similar, so corresponding sides occur in fixed ratios with one another. This means

SQ / PQ = ST / PR

Solve for x :

8 / ((x + 5) + 8) = (x - 9) / 21

8 / (x + 13) = (x - 9) / 21

168 = (x - 9) (x + 13)

168 = x² + 4x - 117

x² + 4x - 285 = 0

(x + 19) (x - 15) = 0

⇒   x = -19   or   x = 15

But x can't be smaller than 9, otherwise ST = x - 9 would be a negative length. So x = 15.

Is 1/8<-1/2 a solution or no?
miv72 [106K]
It is not because always remember, a positive is greater than a negative. This equation is showing a negative being greater than a positive. That's like saying I'm taller than you.
