$\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{ratio relations}

$\bf \cfrac{\textit{similar shape}}{\textit{similar shape}}\qquad \cfrac{s}{s}=\cfrac{\sqrt{s^2}}{\sqrt{s^2}}=\cfrac{\sqrt[3]{s^3}}{\sqrt[3]{s^3}}\\\\

\stackrel{\stackrel{pyramids}{scale~factor}}{\cfrac{small}{large}}\qquad \qquad \cfrac{s}{s}=\cfrac{\sqrt[3]{64}}{\sqrt[3]{343}}\implies \cfrac{s}{s}=\cfrac{4}{7}\implies 4:7$

Arnie decides to make 3 cups of dark orange paint and 3 cups of light orange paint.

dimulka [17.4K]

The question is an illustration of equivalent ratios.

3 cups of dark orange require 3 ounces of yellow paint
3 cups of light orange require 19.5 ounces of yellow paint

1 cup of dark orange requires

$Red = 7oz$

$Yellow =1oz$

To make 3 cups, we simply multiply by 3, because $3 \times 1 = 3$

So, we have:

$Red = 7oz \times 3 = 21oz$

$Yellow =1oz \times 3 = 3oz$

2 cups of light orange require

$Red =3oz$

$Yellow =13$

To make 3 cups, we simply multiply by 1.5, because $2 \times 1.5 = 3$

So, we have:

$Red = 3oz \times 1.5 = 4.5oz$

$Yellow = 13oz \times 1.5 = 19.5oz$

Hence:

3 cups of dark orange require 3 ounces of yellow paint
3 cups of light orange require 19.5 ounces of yellow paint

1. Find the value of x.<br> 2. Find the value of y.

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

$5y + 85 = 180 \\ 5y = 10 - 85 \\ 95 \div 5 = 19 \\ 5x + 95 = 180 \\ 5x = 180 - 95 \\ 5x = 85 \\ x = 17$
