When you plug in the numbers for the integers, you get
8.2-2(-3.7)
If you multiply -2 and -3.7, you get 7.4 because the negatives cancel each other out.
If you then add 8.2, you get 15.6. So the answer is D.

So he's mixing:
1 gallon 2 quarts 3 pints of orange juice
1 gallon 3 quarts 7 pints of pineapple juice and
1 gallon 3
<span>
quarts 3 pints of ginger ale
that's:
3 gallons 8 quarts and 13 pints.
2 pints make a quart, so 13 pints make 6 quarts and 1 pint, so actually it's:
</span><span>3 gallons 8+6=14 quarts and 1 pint.
4 quarts are a gallon, and 14 quarts are 3 gallons 2 quarts, so the final answer is:
</span>
<span>3+3=6 gallons 2 quarts and 1 pint. </span>
The last one, since one depends on the other
