The pints of paint that Mike needs to buy in order to paint 4 boxes is 9 pints.
How many pints is needed?
The first step is determine the total surface area of a box.
Total surface area of a cuboid = 2 (lw + wh + lh)
where:
l = length
w = width
h = height
2 x[ (5 x 9/2) + (9/2 x 7/2) + (5 x 7/2) ]
2 x ( 45/2 + 63/4 + 35/2) = 111.5ft
The second step is to determine the total surface area of 4 boxes:
111.5 x 4 = 446
Now, divide 446 by 50
446 / 50 = 9 pints
Answer: 14gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
12gallons/144miles = 1gallon/12miles
Therefore 6gallons = 12*6 = 72miles.
In order to cover 240miles, she will need 240/12 = 20gallons.
20-6 = 14gallons
She will need 14gallons of gas more.
The point of elimination is to have one variable so example
3x + 2y = 4
7X + 3y = 5
1) Try to find a way to have one variable
7(3x + 2y = 4) ----> 21x + 14y = 28
-3(7x+ 3y = 5) -----> -21x -9y = -15
2) add
0 + 5y = 13
3) solve for the last variable
5y = 13
y = 13/5 = 2 3/5 = 2.8
4) Subsitute the variable to get the other one
3x + 2(2.8) = 4
3x + 5.6 = 4
3x = -1.6
x = 0.533333333 (continue)
The intersection would be 0.53 with a line above the 3 and 2.8. (0.5333 , 2.8)
