Mr. Cruz fills a 3-gallon water cooler for a family picnic. He brings plastic cups that each hold 12 fluid ounces of water. How many plastic cups can Mr. Cruz completely fill with the water from the cooler?

One gallon is equivalent to 128 fluid ounces

3 gallons is equivalent to 3*128 fluid ounces

= 384 fluid ounces

One plastic cup can hold 12 guide ounces

So cups needed will be 384/12

32 cups

for this pair of functions g(x)=x-2 and f(x)=|x| is (g o f)(a)= |a| -2

step-by-step explanation:

g(x)=x-2

f(x)=|x|

(g o f)(a)=?

(g o f)(x)=g(f(x))

(g o f)(x)=g(|x|)

(g o f)(x)=|x|-2

(g o f)(a)=|a|-2
