Answer:

10 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

She used 12 gallons this week and used 20% more than last week. That means 12 gallons is 120% of last weeks gas. Since 12 times 10 equals 120, then to find 20% you do 20 divided 10 and subtract the answer from 12.

20% is 2 because 20 divided by 10 is 2. 12 minus 2 is 10

Hope this helps :)

Y and x have a proportional relationship, and y = 15 when x = 3. What is the value of x when y = 4?
Ksju [112]
In a proportional relationship, x and y will increase at the same rate. In order to find the value of x when y=4, we first have to find the ratio of x:y. We can do this by creating a fraction. After we know the ratio, simply replace the y value with 4 and solve for x. Here's the math:

y=15 when x=3       given values

y/x = 15/3 = 5          ratio of y to x

y=5x                        equation representing the proportional relationship 

4=5x                        replace y with 4

4/5=x                       divide both sides by 5 to isolate x

Answer: The value of x=4/5 when y=4.

Hope this helps!
