Answer:

You need to add 12 pint of yellow.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the method I used:

There is 4 pint of Yellow (Y) and 4 pint of Blue (B)

because they said is in equal amounts, so they are 50% each.

We need 80% Y and 20% B

so 4:20 = x=80   (4 pints is 20% as "how many pints" is 80%)

So x = 16

We already have 4 pint of Yellow, so we need more 12.

A pile of earth removed from an excavation is a cone measuring 6ft high and 30ft across its base. How many trips will it take to
nignag [31]

Answer: 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Excavation cone measures

height h=6\ ft

Diameter d=30\ ft

Truck can dump 125\ ft^3 at a time

The volume of a cone is

V=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi r^2h

Putting values

\Rightarrow V=\dfrac{1}{3}\times \pi\times 15^2\times 6\\\Rightarrow V=1413.9\approx 1414\ ft^3

No of trips(N) required to accumulate this much volume is given by

\Rightarrow N=\dfrac{1414}{125}=13.3\approx 14

Therefore, 14 trips are necessary to accumulate a cone of volume 1414\ ft^3

castortr0y [4]
$0.30x=y should be the answer because there is a 30cent fee for every day and x represents how many days it's kept therefore you would add 30 cents for every day it's kept so it's valid to say $0.30x=y becaue the 30 cents times the total of days it's kept = y (the toatl)
