Step-by-step explanation:
x = n of years of mary
x+8= n of years of her bro
So her brother is (x+8)/x times as old as Mary
X=number of gallons that she must order.
4 gallons-----------------3 weeks
(7 gallons + x)--------12 weeks
We solve this rule of 3.
(7 gallons +x)3 weeks=4 gallons*12 weeks
21 gallons weeks+3 x weeks=48 gallons weeks
3x weeks=48 gallons weeks - 21 gallons weeks
3x weeks=27 gallons weeks
x=(27 gallons weeks) / 3 weeks=9 gallons.
Solution: she must order 9 gallons more.
The answer would be $23.75
