She will go for 7 trips if she has  15 1/2 gallons of water

<h3>Proportion and equations</h3>

From the given information, Ellen can carry 1 3/8 gallons of water each trip, this means:

  • 1 trip = 11/8 gallons

In order to calculate the number of trips, it will take to make 15 1/2 gallons of water, we will have:

x = 21/2 gallons

Take the ratios of both expressions:

1/x =  11/8 * 2/21

1/x = 22/168

x = 168/22

x = 7.64 trips

Hence she will go for 7 trips if she has  15 1/2 gallons of water

50 POINTS!!!
san4es73 [151]

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Determine an ordered pair</u>

A solution of an equation just means that the point lies on the line.  We can find any y-value when we plug in a specific x-value.  For example, if we want to know what ordered pair lies at x=1, we just plug in y = -1/2(1) and solve for y which gives us -1/2.  This gives us an ordered pair of (1, -1/2).  We can continue to do this for any x value.

We can also reverse the order and plug in the y-value and get the x-value in order to accomplish the same goal but it's a bit harder.

Hope this helps!
