Answer:

The volume of paint that covers the whole car is 1\frac{1}{4} gallons or one and a quarter gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the volume of paint required to cover whole car be 'x'.

Given:

Volume of paint to cover one-fifth of a car = one-fourth of a gallon.

We use unitary method to determine the volume of paint required.

∵ One-fifth of a car requires paint = \frac{1}{4}\ gal

∴ Whole volume of car requires paint = \frac{\frac{1}{4}}{\frac{1}{5}}

=\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{5}{1}\\=\frac{5}{4}\\=1\frac{1}{4}\ gal

Therefore, the volume of paint that covers the whole car is 1\frac{1}{4} gallons or one and a quarter gallons.

Possible Ages      Sum of The Ages 1  2  36                      391  4  18                      231  8  9                        181  3  24                      282  3  12                      172  4  9                        152  6  6                        142  2  18                      223  3  8                        143  4  6                        13

The sum has to be 14. So it can be 2, 6, and 6 or 3, 3, and 8.
But it cannot be 3, 3, and 8 because the youngest cannot be a twin.

So it is 2, 6, and 6.

Hope this helps :)

Question
maria [59]

Answer:

y = m x + b equation of a straight line

m m' = -1    condition for perpendicular lines

If y = 4 x - 7     then m = 4 so m' = -.25

Y = -.25 X + A      we need to find A

A = Y + .25 * 8 = 2 + 2 = 4

Y = -.25 X + 4

Check:

2 = -.25 * 8 + 4 = -2 + 4 = 2
