Answer:

2\dfrac{5}{6}$ gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Volume of paint =  3\dfrac12$ gallons

The volume of paint used to paint his bedroom = \dfrac23 gallons

Let the volume used for the mural =x.

We then have that:

Total Volume=Volume of paint used for bedroom+Volume used for the mural

3\dfrac12=\dfrac23+x\\$Subtract \dfrac23$ from both sides.$\\3\dfrac12-\dfrac23=\dfrac23-\dfrac23+x\\x=\dfrac72-\dfrac23\\x=\dfrac{7(3)-2(2)}{6}\\=\dfrac{17}{6}\\x=2\dfrac{5}{6}$ gallons

Therefore, Edwin uses 2\dfrac{5}{6}$ gallons of paint for the mural.

So you want to add 7x degrees and (x-4) degrees. And it will be 8x - 4 = 180 degrees because it's 180 degrees in a straight line. And you want to + the 180 by 4 because there is -4 on the other side. so it will be 8x = 184 and you just divide 184 by 8 and it will be 23 easy. if you want to my help again you can text me on instargram jason_lee093
