Jason left a bin outside in his garden to collect rainwater. He notices that 1 over 5 gallon of water fills 2 over 3 of the bin. Write and solve an equation to find the amount of water that will fill the entire bin. Show your work. Explain your answer in words.

3/10

Step-by-step explanation: (1/5) gallon / (2/3) bin = x gallons / 1 bin cross-multiply

1/5 = (2/3)x multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 2/3 = 3/2

(3/2) (1/5) = x = 3/10 gallons fills the entire bin

Look at it this wayeach 1/10 of a gallon fills 1/3 of the binso 3(1/10) gallons fills 3(1/3)binsor

3/10 gallons fills a whole bin...

We can set this up as a proportion

(1/5) gallon / (2/3) bin = x gallons / 1 bin cross-multiply

1/5 = (2/3)x multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 2/3 = 3/2

(3/2) (1/5) = x = 3/10 gallons fills the entire bin

Look at it this wayeach 1/10 of a gallon fills 1/3 of the binso 3(1/10) gallons fills 3(1/3)binsor

3/10 galons fills a whole bin

the graph is negative for all real values of x where   -6 < x < -2.

this refers to the values of f(x) in the area below the x-axis.
