Answer:

Both statements are sufficient to answer the question

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- The paint mixture has following proportions:

 Total volume of paint = T

 Blue:  x*T / 100

 Green: y*T/100

 Red: z*T/100

Find:

Statement 1: x = y

Statement: z = 60

Which of the above statement is sufficient to calculate the amount of green paint used

Solution:

Statement 1:

- The amount of blue paint used is:

                    1 gallon = x*T / 100

- x = y,

                    1 gallon = y*T / 100

Hence,

                    Amount of green paint used is 1 gallon

- The statement is sufficient

Statement 2:

- The amount of red paint used is:

                    3 gallon = z*T / 100

                    T = 300 / z = 300 / 60 = 5 gallons

                    T = R + B + G

                    G = T - R - B

                    G = 5 - 3 - 1

                    G = 1 gallons

Hence,

                    Amount of green paint used is 1 gallon

- The statement is sufficient

Please help me out!​

Answer:  g = -4  and   h =1     or   g= -1  and h = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

If two exponents have the same base and are multiplied together,  you will keep the base unchange and add the exponents.  

So looking at the equation, the base is 2 for both and they are raised to the powers  g and h, meaning that if  g and h are added together they have  to equal -3.

So find two numbers that their sum is -3.

For example,  -1 and -2 add up to -3, -4 and 1 add up to -3.

Ms. Gregg spent $14 buying fruit
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Ms. Gregg could buy 4 apples and 6 bananas

Step-by-step explanation:

You can split the money and try to get even on each fruit by, getting 4 apples which would be 8 dollars on 4 apples then the extra money would be left over for the bananas which would be six dollars and since the bananas are only 1 dollar you can buy 6 with the leftover money.
