we know the blue and white paints are on a 1.5 : 5 ratio, thus, if we have a total of 16.25 gallons of paint to be split along that ratio, we can simply divide 16.25 by (1.5+5) and distribute accordingly.

$\bf \cfrac{blue}{white}\qquad \stackrel{ratio}{1.5:5}\qquad \cfrac{1.5}{5}~\hspace{5em}\cfrac{1.5\cdot \frac{16.25}{1.5+5}}{5\cdot \frac{16.25}{1.5+5}}\implies \cfrac{1.5\cdot \frac{16.25}{6.5}}{5\cdot \frac{16.25}{6.5}} \\\\\\ \cfrac{1.5\cdot 2.5}{5\cdot 2.5}\implies \cfrac{3.75}{12.5}\qquad \qquad \boxed{\stackrel{blue}{3.75}~:~\stackrel{white}{12.5}}$

a carpenter uses a circular saw to cut a piece of lumber at a 145 angle what is the measure of the other angle formed by the cut

Anettt [7]

The other angle would be 35 degrees. This is because in a straight line (the wood) there are 180 degrees and when you take away 145 (the cut) you are left with 35.

180-145= 35

I hope this helps!
