Answer:
x = 2, x = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 8 from both sides.
Simplify.
Solve with quadratic formula.
a = 1
b = 4
c = -12
I do not have time to show work for quadratic formula parts.
I am so sorry for this inconvenience.
There is word form(which means write the number down, so lets just say I have the numbers 82,7,and 12. So I'll write eighty-two, seven, and twelve. There's also standard form, so lets say I have the numbers 27 and 15 I'll write 20+ 7, then 10+5.) I hope you got it! Good luck

Well...this is a proportion problwm. for every 16 cups I have 1 gallon, so I can write that as:
16 cups
-----------
1 gallon
this value will be proportional to 1/4 a gallon equal "so many" cups. let's equal the unknown about of cups to x.
16 cups______ x cups
-----------.... = ..... ----------
1 gallon _____ 1/4 gallons
I can cross multiply to find x.
1 gallon • x cups = 16 cups • 1/4 gallons
16 times 1/4 is the same as 16/4, which equals 4.
1 gallon • x cups = 4 cups gallons
divide both sides by gallons
x cups = 4 cups
so! 1/4 of a gallon equals 4 cups.
