Answer:
x = 13y + 0.625
Step-by-step explanation:
4(2x - 3y) = y + 5
8x - 12y = y + 5
8x = y + 5 + 12y
8x = 5 + 13y
8x ÷ 8 = 5 + 13y ÷ 8
x = 5 + 13y ÷ 8
x= 13y + 5 ÷8
x = 13y + 0.625
4n - 7 = 13
4n = 20
n = 5. Hope it helps!
<u>Answer-</u>
<em>The total amount of water wasted this year is 6716 gallons.</em>
<u>Solution-</u>
A study indicated that the citizens of Morris-town wasted 5840 gallons of water last year.
This year they wasted 15% more than that amount they wasted previous year.
15% of 5840 is,

The total amount of water wasted this year =
The amount of water wasted previous year + 15% more of the amount of that
= 5840 + 876
= 6716 gallons
Therefore, the total amount of water wasted this year is 6716 gallons
8*2=16, 4*4=16, so 16/2 is even and so is 16/8 or 16/4
