Answer:
-4x + 12 = 20 is incorrect. she added 12 to 20 instead of subtracting 12 from both sides.
Step-by-step explanation:
It should have been, write problem
-4(x - 3) = 20
Use distributive property.
-4x + 12 = 20
subtract 12 from each side
-4x =8
divide each side by -4
x = -2
20 and 7 Because 4x5 = 20
Sonia saves a lot of water. To figure this out, you plug the number 8 into the equation, replacing it with the variable x. y = 3(8). Therefore, y=24. To find out how much water she saves, you have to also figure out how much water she was using for 8 minutes with the other shower head, the one that wastes the water. Since it dispenses 12 gallons per minute, you multiply that by 8 minutes and get 96. Subtract 24 from 96 and get 72. Which I think is your answer. Then again, I'm in high school so I most likely am wrong.
