All you have to do is set up 2 proportions, where one paint you know and the other you do not know and make it equal to the ratio as 2 blue : 5 yellow

For example: 1 blue/x yellow = 2 blue/5 yellow, and then cross multiply and solve for x.

Do this for all unknowns, blue and yellow paint making it equal to the ratio and solve for the unknown.

Each of six jars contains the same number of candies. Alice moves half of the candies from the first jar to the second jar. Then
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

The number of candies in the sixth jar is 42.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that there are <em>x</em> number of candies in each of the six jars.

⇒ After Alice moves half of the candies from the first jar to the second jar, the number of candies in the second jar is:

\text{Number of candies in the 2nd jar}=x+\fracx}{2}=\frac{3}{2}x

⇒ After Boris moves half of the candies from the second jar to the third jar, the number of candies in the third jar is:

\text{Number of candies in the 3rd jar}=x+\frac{3x}{4}=\frac{7}{4}x

⇒ After Clara moves half of the candies from the third jar to the fourth jar, the number of candies in the fourth jar is:

\text{Number of candies in the 4th jar}=x+\frac{7x}{4}=\frac{15}{8}x

⇒ After Dara moves half of the candies from the fourth jar to the fifth jar, the number of candies in the fifth jar is:

\text{Number of candies in the 5th jar}=x+\frac{15x}{16}=\frac{31}{16}x

⇒ After Ed moves half of the candies from the fifth jar to the sixth jar, the number of candies in the sixth jar is:

\text{Number of candies in the 6th jar}=x+\frac{31x}{32}=\frac{63}{32}x

Now, it is provided that at the end, 30 candies are in the fourth jar.

Compute the value of <em>x</em> as follows:

\text{Number of candies in the 4th jar}=40\\\\\frac{15}{8}x=40\\\\x=\frac{40\times 8}{15}\\\\x=\frac{64}{3}

Compute the number of candies in the sixth jar as follows:

\text{Number of candies in the 6th jar}=\frac{63}{32}x\\

                                                    =\frac{63}{32}\times\frac{64}{3}\\\\=21\times2\\\\=42

Thus, the number of candies in the sixth jar is 42.

Mr. Hinckley owns 83 acres of land, he divides the land into eight equal sections to sell to eight buyers which phrase describes
anygoal [31]

Alright, lets get started.

Mr. Hinckley owns 83 acres of total land.

He divides the land into eight equal sections to sell to eight buyers.

It means, we could find the land each buyer receives by dividing total land by 8.

So, each buyer receives land = \frac{83}{8}

So, each buyer receives land = 10.375 acres

So, the answer is 10.375 acres lands received by each buyer. : Answer

Hope it will help :)
