Write a rule that expresses the number of quarts q of a liquid as a function of the number of pints p.

1q = 2p

Step-by-step explanation:

One quart of liquid is the equivalent of 2 pints... one of the rare easy measures in the American measure system.

So, the equation needs to have 1 quart on one side, and 2 pints on the other side.  It's an equation because both values are equal, just expressed in different units.

1 quart = 2 pints, then rewritten to match the variables given in the question:

1q = 2p

step-by-step explanation:

always plug in x. in this case, x equals 4.

i'm going to first solve 4(2+3x)

1) 4(2+3(4)) use pemdas to solve.

i'm going to multiply whats in the parenthesis first, so 3 times 4=12.

2)4 (2+12) i'm then going to multiply 4 by both numbers in the parenthesis (because multiplying comes before adding)

4 times 2= 8.   4 times 12= 48

4) (8+48)= 56 (answer)

i'm then going to solve 8+12x and plug in 4 for x.

1) 8 +12(4)

multiplying comes before adding, so i'm gonna multiply 12 and 4.

12 times 4= 48.

2) 8+48=56

both equal the same!
