If one gallon = 4 quarts
Then 5 gallons = x quarts
To solve this we can set up a porportion
1/4 = 5/x
To solve the porportion we need to find the rule so how to we get to 4 from 1? Well we can multiply 1 by 4 to get one right?
So if this is true, 1 x 4 = 4 then 5 x 4 must equal x
5 x 4 = 20 so the answer would be 20 quarts are in 5 gallons
Another way to look at this is that you have 5 gallons and in each gallon is 4 quarts to if there is 4 quarts in every one gallon then that’s just 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 or 5 x 4

Hey there!
First, we see that it's already written in slope intercept, y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept, we just need to simplify the like terms on the right. We have:
y = 12x-5x-2
y = 7x - 2
Now that we have it in slope intercept form, whenever we have an x intercept, since it is crossing the x axis, there's no y value. We plug in 0 for y:
0 = 7x - 2
2 = 7x
2/7 = x
The x intercept is (2/7, 0)
Hope this helps!
Answer:
x = 83°
Step-by-step explanation:
41, 56 and the missing angle = 180° ( form a straight angle )
missing angle = 180° - (41 + 56)° = 180° - 97° = 83°
The angle x and the missing angle are vertically opposite and congruent
Hence x = 83°
Add 13 to both sides
13 = 2x + 15x
Simplify right side
13 = 17x
Divide through by 17
13/17 = x
