Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to make a specific shade of green paint, a painter mixes 1 1/2 quarts of blue paint. Converting 1.5 quarts to cup,
1 quart = 4 cups
1.5 quarts = 1.5 × 4 = 6 cups
She also used 1/2 gallon of white paint. Converting 0.5 gallons to cup,
0.0625 gallons = 1 cup
0.5 gallons = 0.5/0.0625 = 8 cups
This means that the ratio of cups of blue paint to green paint to white paint is 6: 2 :8
Total ratio = 6 +2 + 8 = 16
To make 100 cups of this shade of green,
Cups of blue paint needed = 6/16 × 100 = 37.5 cups
Cups of green paint needed = 2/16 × 100 = 12.5 cups
Cups of white paint needed = 8/16 × 100 = 50 cups
Answer:
a₁ = 38
Step-by-step explanation:
Given AP, where:
=============
<h3>Solution</h3>
aₙ = a₁ + (n-1)d
- a₈ = a₁ + 7d = a₁ + 7*(-2) = a₁ - 14
- a₁₂ = a₁ + 11d = a₁ + 11*(-2) = a₁ - 22
8a₈ = 12a₁₂
- 8(a₁ - 14) = 12(a₁ - 22)
- 2(a₁ - 14) = 3(a₁ - 22)
- 2a₁ - 28 = 3a₁ - 66
- 3a₁ - 2a₁ = -28 + 66
- a₁ = 38
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I assume the denominator is (4-√3)
Multiple both top and bottom by (4+√3)
[5(4+√3)]/[(4-√3)(4+√3)]
=[20+5√3]/[4²-(√3)²]
=[20+5√3]/13
