Well, he only needs 5 gallons of beverages. Because he buys two containers of each, however, that means he bought 320 gallons total (I would say). How I got my answer:
There are 8 pints in a gallon (8 x 2)
There are 4 quarts in a gallon (4 x 2)
There are 16 cups in a gallon (16 x 2)
There are 128 ounces in a gallon (128 x 2)
With that being said, we can add these to find the total amount of gallons of beverages Julius bought. 16 + 8 + 8 + 32 + 256 = 320.
Hopefully this helps!
Answer:
the answer is x=2 and y=2
Step-by-step explanation:
-3y=16+5x
-y=(16+5x)3
Y should also be halved.
For example, if x=4 and y=2, x=2y.
If x is halved for x=2, you get 2=2y, or y=1, which is still one half of x, so the proportion remains the same.
