<u>Part A
</u>
<u />To estimate this, we should first look at our fractions and see if they can be combined to form a whole number. In this case, \frac{3}{5} and \frac{2}{3} equal approximately 1. We can add this "1" to the other to full gallons to estimate that the painter needs about 3 gallons.

<u>Part B
</u>
<u /><u />To find the exact amount, we should first change the mixed numbers to improper fractions. We do this by multiplying the denominator by the whole number, adding the numerator, and placing that value over the denominator.

1 \frac{3}{5} \\ \\  (5*1)+3 =8 \\  \\  \frac{8}{5}  \\  \\  \\ \\  1 \frac{2}{3} \\  \\ (3*1)+2=5 \\  \\  \frac{5}{3}  &#10;

Now, we need to find the least common denominator. This is the lowest value that both denominators will divide evenly into. In this case, that number is 15.

Next, we should multiply both fractions so that the denominator is that number. Remember that we must also multiply the numerator for the fraction to remain equivalent to its original value.

\frac{8}{5} *3 =   \frac{24}{15} \\  \\  \frac{5}{3} *5 =  \frac{25}{15}

Now, we can simply add our numerators.

25+24=49

We know that he needs \frac{49}{15} gallons of paint, but this is not in the most simplified format. To simplify, we need to turn our improper fraction back to a mixed number. To do this, we need to divide our numerator by the denominator to create our whole number, and the remainder becomes our new numerator.

\frac{49}{15} \\  \\ 49 / 15 = 3(Remainder: 4) \\  \\  3\frac{4}{15}

Using that logic, we can see that the painter needs exactly 3 \frac{4}{15} gallons of paint.

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

a = -12

Remember that when a variable is times with a number, you <u>divide</u> the number on both sides.

When a variable is divided by a number, you <u>multiply</u> the number on both sides.

Hope this helps you. Thank you !!

Show your work<br><br> 7(x-8)=2x-31
victus00 [196]

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

7 (x-8)=2x-31

Distribute the 7 to the x and -8 (basically multiple 7 with the x and -8)

7x-56=2x -31

Drag the 2x over to the other subtracting it from 7x.

7x-2x-56=-31

5x-56=-31

Drag the 56 to the other side and add it to -31

5x= -31+56 (or 56-31)

5x= 25

Divide 5x from 25 to get your X

x=25/5

x=5

Hope this helps!!

A ball is thrown into the air with an upward velocity of 48 ft/s. Its height h in feet after t seconds is given by the function
stiv31 [10]
The answer to this, your question is                                                                               h = -16t • 2 + 48t + 6
h = -32t + 48t + 6
h = 16t + 6     HOPE I HELPED IN A WAY!                                                                                                                                             ~Marcey<3

Urgent!!!! not worried about a but i need b and #4
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

b) The surface area is 564.5. Picture below.

4. Three possibilities.

Formula for volume of a cylinder: πr^2h

Formula for volume of sphere: 4/3πr^3

If the radius of the sphere is 1 inch than the volume is: 4.18879 or 4.19 rounded.

I used substitution on this website https://www.omnicalculator.com/math/volume

Just plug in the 4.18879 at the cylinder volume and put in a random number in the radius or height whichever you want then it'll give you the one you left blank. You'll find three possibilities for the radius and height of 4.18879 volume.
