What is a linear equation?
- A linear equation is an algebraic equation of the form y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept, and only a constant and a first-order (linear) term are included.
- The variables in the preceding equation are y and x, and it is occasionally referred to as a "linear equation of two variables." from Wolfram MathWorld: linear
We will employ the basic counting principle, which states that if one task can be completed in method A and another in way B, then both tasks may be completed in way A*B.
If mom buys 1 shirt, then total shirts(A) = 6+1 =7, total pants(B) = 2 and total shoes (C) = 3
By basic counting principle, number of outfits = A*B*C = 7*2*3 = 42 outfits possible
and
If mom buys 1 pair of shoes, then total shirts(A) = 6, total pants(B) = 2 and total shoes (C) = 3+1 = 4
By basic counting principle, number of outfits = A*B*C = 6*2*4 = 48 outfits possible
hence, buying a pair of shoes gives us 48 different outfits.

Answer: 24 gallons
Check: (1/6)24=4, 4+14=18, 18/24=3/4, good
In the given diagram, the traingles USW and UTV are similar triangles and thus the following ratio equality applies to them.
..........(Equation 1)
Checking the diagram given, we see that:
VT=y, WS=22, VU=8, ST=x-2
WU=WV+VU=12+8=20
TU=5
SU=ST+TU=(x-2)+5=x+3
Thus, substituting the required values in (Equation 1) we get:
Now, as can be clearly seen, to find y we will use the first two ratios as:
In a similar manner, to find the value of x we can use the last two ratios:
After cross multiplication we get:
Which can be simplified as:
Thus, 
Therefore, the required answer is:
x=9.5 and y=8.8
