Answer:

12/5 days

Step-by-step explanation:

if d=number of days

w=work completed

person one completes w=d/6 (ie. after 6 days (when d=6) work will be completed (w=1))

person two completes w=d/4 (ie. after 4 days (when d=4) work will be completed (w=1))

so total work competed together w=d/6 + d/4

the job is complete when w=1 so

1 = d/6 + d/4

12 = 2d + 3d

12 = 5d

d = 12/5

Rudiy27

Answer:

m = -2

y-intercept = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

m = y2-y1/x2-x1

so

m = -2-4/3-0

=-2

y=mx+b

Substitute the coordinates into the equation to find b

4=-2(0)+b

4=b

so y intercept is 4

y=-2x+4

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Change 2/5 to a decimal

2/5 = 0.4

Change 1 2/15 of a fluid ounce to a decimal.

1.133333

Set up your proportion.

0.4 / 1.133333 = x / 5               Cross multiply

0.4*5 = 1.133333*x

2 = 1.133333 x                         Divide by 1.1333333

2/1.33333 = x

x = 1.5 ounces.

He needs 1.5 ounces of red to make 5 ounces of purple.
