Mary has 20 liters of paint mixed white:blue in the ratio 2:3.  So two fifths of that paint is white and three fifths is blue.  So that's 8 liters white, 12 liters blue.

We want to add paint to get white:blue = 1:7.  Clearly we need to add blue.  We have our 8 liters of white, so we need a total of 7(8)=56 liters of blue.  We already have 12, so we have to add 56-12=44 liters of blue paint:

Answer: Add 44 liters blue

I=prt,for p please show step by step for this variable
Bond [772]

Answer:

p = \dfrac{I}{rt}

Step-by-step explanation:

I = prt

Switch sides.

prt = I

We are solving for p. We want p alone on the left side. p is being multiplied by r and t, so we divide both sides by r and t.

\dfrac{prt}{rt} = \dfrac{I}{rt}

p = \dfrac{I}{rt}

To shop a package, a company charges a one-time fee plus a fee based on the weight of the package. The table below shows the tot
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

C = $5 + $1.5(w)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following information :

Total shipping cost :

One time fee + fee based on package weight

Given the table :

Weight in pounds - - - - Total shipping cost($)

___4__________________11

___8__________________17

___12_________________23

___16_________________29

We can deduce from the table

For a package that weighs (w) 4 pounds

Total shipping cost = $11

Let one time fee = f

Fee based on weight = r

f + 4(r) = 11 - - - - - (1)

For a package that weighs (w) 8 pounds

Total shipping cost = $17

One time fee = f

Fee based on weight = r

f + 8r = 17 - - - - - (2)

From (1)

f = 11 - 4r - - - (3)

Substitute f = 11 - 4r in (2)

11 - 4r + 8r = 17

-4r + 8r = 17 - 11

4r = 6

r = 6/4

r = 1.5

Put r = 1.5 in (3)

f = 11 - 4(1.5)

f = 11 - 6

f = 5

Hence one time fee = $5

Charge based on weight = $1.5

Hence, Total shipping cost 'C' for a package weighing 'w' will be :

C = $5 + $1.5(w)
