The new shower head dispenses 3 gallons of water per minute, as shown in the equation y = 3x.
So, 3 x 8 = 24.
Then, to find out how much he saves each day, you would find how much he used before,
11 x 8 = 88
Next we want to see how much Nathan saved, so we subtract the total,
88 - 24 = 64
Nathan saved 64 gallons.
Don’t really pay attention to the x .
The blanks are as follows:
- Angle addition postulate
- Subtraction property of equality
- Corresponding sides of similar triangles are proportional
- Multiplication property of equality
