Lydia uses 8.9 pints of blue paint and white paint to paint her bedroom walls. 4 5 of this amount is blue paint, and the rest is white paint. How many pints of white paint did she use to paint her bedroom walls?
1 answer:
Answer:
1.78 pints
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find 4/5 of the total pints of paint she used, so we know how much blue paint she used . Then, we subtract that from the total pints of paint that she used.
She used 8.9 pints of both blue and white paint.
Therefore, the amount of blue paint she used is:
4 / 5 * 8.9 = 7.12 pints
The amount of white paint she used is therefore:
8.9 - 7.12 = 1.78 pints

Answer:
5 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
The ground is 25 eet, so 25=-16t^2+400
-16t^2=-400, 16t^2=400
t^2=25, dividing both sides by 16
t=5 seconds.
x-3+x=-38
2x-3=-38
2x=3-38=-35
x=-35/2=-17.5
If you take the 6 and subtract it by 2 you will get 4
Anything 5 and up, because when you multiply the by 15, they equal more than 65, making the inequality true.
The answer is 500/7
