If you would like to know how many gallons of paint did Beth use, you can calculate this using the following steps:
1 jar ... 1 pint of paint
32 jars ... x pints of paint = ?
1 * x = 1 * 32
x = 32 pints of paint
1 gallon ... 8 pints
y gallons = ? ... 32 pints of paint
1 * 32 = 8 * y
32 = 8 * y /8
y = 32 / 8 = 4 gallons of paint
Result: Beth used 4 gallons of paint.
y = 11/21
To solve this first evaluate the power (then calculate the sum):
<u><em>
</em></u>y - <u><em>
</em></u> = 5y +<u><em> (-5 + 7)</em></u>
16y - 9 = -5y + 2
Next Move terms (move variable to the left side and change its sign) (Move constant to the right side and change its sign):
16y <u><em>- 9 </em></u>= <u><em>-5y</em></u> + 2
16y + 5y = 2 + 9
Next Collect the like terms and calculate the sum:
<u><em>16y + 5y</em></u> = <u><em>2 + 9</em></u>
21y = 11
Lastly divide both sides of the equation by 21:
<u><em>21y = 11</em></u>
y = 
Answer:

When you flip a coin twice, you have a 50/50 chance of it land on heads or tails.
The possible combinations for fliping a coin twice:
HH (heads/heads both times)
T/H(Tails/Heads)
H/T(Heads/Tails)
or the one you're looking for...
T/T (Tails/Tails both times)
You have a 1/4 chance of getting tails both times.
Answer:
22 pounds of watermelon
Step-by-step explanation:
First find cost per pound
19.60/8=2.45
$2.45 per pound
Then divide $53.90 by $2.45 to determine how many pounds you can buy
53.90/2.45=22
22 pounds of watermelon
