3 4/5 = 19/5
reciprocal of 19/5 = 5/19
We can form two ratios to help us solve this:
(2x+6):10 = (x+6):8
(2x+6) (x+6)
--------- = --------
10 8
Cross multiply:
8(2x+6) = 10(x+6)
Foil:
16x + 48 = 10x + 60
Move like variables to the same side:
16x - 10x = 60 - 48
6x = 12
x = 2
Line AE = 2x+6
Plug 2 for x into the equation: 2(2) + 6 = 10
Hope this helps, and May the Force Be With You!

32 people each get a pint and 1 pint is roughly 0.125 gallons so assuming that the pitcher can hold one gallon each then it would be 4 pitchers D is your answer.
If the original volumes of liquid is represented by x, we have x=x for A and B. Since 120mL is poured from A to B, A loses 120 mL (x-120) and B gains 120 mL (x+120). Since we know that B contains 4 times as much liquid as A is now (x-120), we have 4*(x-120)=(x+120)=B. Using the distributive property, we get 4x-480=x+120. Adding 480 to both sides, we get 4x=x+600. After that, we can subtract both sides by x to get 3x=600. Lastly, we can divide both sides by 3 to get x=200=the original amount of liquid. Since A=x-120, we get A=200-120=80
