<span>This is the equation made from the problem where x=mystery number
</span><span>2x+3(x+1)=4(x-1)</span><span>
</span><span>Now let's solve for x!
</span><span>
</span><span>We start by distributing 3 into (X+1)
</span><span>
</span><span>3(x)=3x and 3(1)=3
</span><span>
</span><span>Now our equation is 2x+3x+3=4(x-1)
</span><span>
</span><span>Let's combine both x values on the left side of the equation: 2x + 3x=5x
</span><span>
</span><span>We now have 5x+3=4(x-1)
</span><span>
</span><span>Let's distribute 4 into (x-1)
</span><span>
</span><span>4(x)=4x and 4(-1)=-4
</span><span>
</span><span>Now our equation is 5x+3=4x-4
</span><span>
</span><span>subtract 3 form both sides
</span><span>
</span><span>5x=4x-7
</span><span>
</span><span>subtract 4x from both sides
</span><span>
</span><span>x=-7
</span><span>
</span><span>Yay! So the number she is thinking of is -7!</span><span>

we know that 1 gallon = 4 quarts so...
17 gallons of root beer + 12 gallons of punch = 29 gallons in total
29 gallons ÷ 4 = 7.25 quarts
so she needs 7 bottles of quarts for her 29 total gallons.
