-9.6 is the answer.
first you turn both fractions into decimals, then you just divide the two.

Turn 2 2/5 into a fraction of 12/5 and when dividing fractions, just flip and multiply! So 12/5 x -4/1 = your answer

The formula s = StartRoot StartFraction S A Over 6 EndFraction EndRoot gives the length of the side, s, of a cube with a surface

never [62]

Answer:

$2\sqrt{2}\ ft\ longer$

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose a cube with side length s, the area of one side is

$A_s=s^2$

Since the cube has 6 sides, the total area is

$A=6A_s=6s^2$

But if we have the area, we can solve the above formula for s to get

$A=6s^2$

$\displaystyle s=\sqrt{\frac{A}{6}}$

We have two different cubes with areas 1,200 square inches and 768 square inches. Let's compute their side lengths

$\displaystyle s_1=\sqrt{\frac{1,200}{6}}=\sqrt{200}$

$\displaystyle s_1=10\sqrt{2}\ ft$

$\displaystyle s_2=\sqrt{\frac{768}{6}}=\sqrt{128}$

$\displaystyle s_2=8\sqrt{2} ft$

The difference between them is

$10\sqrt{2}\ ft-8\sqrt{2}\ ft=2\sqrt{2}\ ft\approx 2.83\ ft$

The side of the cube with area 1,200 square inches is $2\sqrt{2}\ ft$ longer then the side of the cube with area 768 square inches

To make purple plum paint, the paint store mixes blue and red paint in a ration of 8:5 if a customer needs 65 gallon of paint ho

Olegator [25]

Answer:

Number of gallons of blue paint = 40 gallons

Number of gallons of red paint = 25 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the ratio:

Blue paint : Red paint =

8 : 5

Sum of proportion = 8 + 5 = 13

If the customer need 65 gallons of paint,

a) Number of gallons of blue paint needed =

8/13 × 65 gallons = 40 gallons

b) Number of gallons of red paint needed =

5/13 × 65 gallons = 25 gallons

Therefore:

Number of gallons of blue paint = 40 gallons

Number of gallons of red paint = 25 gallons
