Answer:

$YW=20\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In a parallelogram the diagonals bisect each other

The figure XYZW is a parallelogram

VW=VY

VX=VZ

<em>Find the value of b</em>

VW=VY

substitute the given values

$b+8=5b$

solve for b

$5b-b=8\\4b=8\\b=2$

Find the length of YW

$YW=YV+VW$ ----> by addition segment postulate

$YW=5b+b+8$

substitute the value of b

$YW=6(2)+8=20\ units$

To make fruit punch for a party, we need 4 1⁄2 gallons of ginger ale, 1 gallon of strawberry juice, 2 3⁄4 gallons of frozen oran

lina2011 [118]

For this case we convert the mixed numbers to fractions:

$4 \frac {1} {2} = \frac {2 * 4 + 1} {2} = \frac {9} {2}\\2 \frac {3} {4} = \frac {4 * 2 + 3} {4} = \frac {11} {4}$

Now we add the fractions:

$\frac{9} {2}+1+ \frac {11} {4} + \frac {1} {8} =$

We find the least common multiple of the denominators. The l.c.m is 8, then we divide by each denominator and multiply the result by each numerator.

$\frac {36 + 8 + 22 + 1} {8} =\\\frac {67} {8} =$

8,375

Thus, the punch recipe implies 8.375 gallons. If we convert to a mixed number we have:

$8 \frac {3} {8}$ gallons

Answer:

$8 \frac {3} {8}$ gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> quantity of gallons of white paint that Hamza has to buy

we know that

A gallon of white paint must mixed with 2 gallons of brown paint

using proportion

$\frac{1}{2}\frac{gallon\ white}{gallons\ brown} =\frac{x}{8}\frac{gallons\ white}{gallons\ brown}\\\\x=8/2\\x=4\ gallons\ white$
