You can write this as a ratio to find the answer, but you first need to convert the gallon of white paint into ounces, which is 160 ounces. The ratio, red to blue to white, is 4:28:160, which you can simplify by dividing by 4 into 1:7:40. If 80 ounces of red tint are used, you need to multiply each value in the ratio by 80, which gives you 80:560:3200. This shows that you need 560 ounces of blue tint, which can also be written as 3.5 gallons. I hope this helps!
Where's the "triangle with alt. BD?" This problem can be solved without the diagram, but the solution would be easier with it.
BD is the altitude. Find the length of BD by finding the dist. between (-1,4) and (2,4); it is 2-(-1), or 3. |BD| = 3.
I've graphed the triangle myself and have found that the "base" of the triangle is the vertical line thru (2,1) and (2,6); its length is 6-1, or 5.
Thus, the area of this triangle is A = (b)(h) / 2, or A = (5)(3) / 2 = 10/3 square inches.
Answer:
585 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y + z
- Substitute the given values for x, y, and z.
(3) + (-5) + (-2)
3 - 5 - 2
- Solve from left to right.
3 - 5 = -2
-2 - 2 = -4
<h3>Your answer is -4.</h3>
