Answer: Y = 4x - 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Well, the reason for this is because y can be anything because there are 2 unknown terms in the equation. Thus, the answer to y can be many different answers. The one common thing that all of these answers have is that they have only 1 expression (An equation without equal sign) to solve it. This expression is the answer to y, but it can be changed judging by the answer of x. That is why you cannot determine an exact answer to y with there being many, so you have to write the expression to get y. Which you can find out by:
12 (Part) + y (Part) = 4x (Whole)
So to figure out one part do the whole minus the other part which is why 4x is our answer:
4x (Whole) - 12 (Other Part)
This is called part-whole postulate.

Answer:
-221 base 3
Step-by-step explanation:
We are to calculate the value of the numbers in base 3. One of the ways to do that is to first convert each number to base 10. Do the arithmetic, then convert back to base 3.
121 base 3 +2122 base 3 - 1200 base 3 - 2111 base 3
Let's convert to base10
See attachment for details
From the workings,
121 base 3 + 2122 base 3 - 1200 base 3 - 2111 base 3 = -221 base 3
Let x be the first jug, y the second jug.
From first statement, subtracting 1 from x, makes them equal:
x - 1 = y
From second statement, subtracting 2 from y, makes it half of x:
x/2 = y-2
Solve system with substitution:
x/2 = (x-1) -2
x/2 = x - 3
x- x/2 = 3
x/2 = 3
x = 6
y = x-1 = 6-1 = 5
Therefore the largest jug contains 6 liters.
