A factory adds three red drops and two blue drops of coloring to white paint to make each pint purple The factory will make 50 g

30 gallons of red paint  &  20 gallons of blue paint

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of red to blue paint drops to make purple paint is 3 : 2

Therefore the total number of gallon, in this case, fifty (50) is equivalent to the total of two ratios (which is 3 + 2 5)

If 5 in the ratio = 50; what about 2  & 3

5 = 50

2 = x

After cross multiplication;

5x = 50 * 2

X = 100/5

X = 20

The same for ratio 3

5 = 50

3 = y

5y = 50 * 3

y = 150/5

y = 30

The answer is therefore; 30 gallons of red paint to 20 gallons of blue paint

Find the slope of the ordered pair. A(4,6) B(5,8)
andrezito [222]

Answer:

<h2>The slope is 2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

we are required to find the slope of the given data points

A(4,6) B(5,8)

hence the x and y values correspond to

x1=4

y1=6

x2=5

y2=8

Step two:

Required is the slope which is

slope= y2-y1/x2-x1

Slope=8-6/5-4

Slope= 2/1

<em><u>Hence the slope of the ordered pair is 2</u></em>

Q
Tema [17]

Answer:

y = \frac{1}{2} x+7

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form: y = mx + b

Slope formula: \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

Given points: (-6, 4), (6, 10)

(-6, 4) = (x1, y1)

(6, 10) = (x2, y2)

To write the equation in slope-intercept form, we need to find the slope(m) and the y-intercept(b) of the equation.

First, let's find the slope. To do this, input the given points into the slope formula:

\frac{10-4}{6-(-6)}

Simplify:

10 - 4 = 6

6 - (-6) = 6 + 6 = 12

\frac{6}{12}=\frac{1}{2}

The slope is \frac{1}{2}.

To find the y-intercept, input the slope and one of the given points(in this example I'll use point (6, 10)) into the equation and solve for b:

10 = \frac{1}{2}(6)+b

10 = 3 + b

7 = b

The y-intercept is 7.

Now that we know the slope and the y-intercept, we can write the equation:

y = \frac{1}{2} x+7

Order the following numbers from greatest to least: 7.321, 7.3, 7.065, 7.65
Slav-nsk [51]

The order for the given decimal numbers, from the greatest to the least, is: D. 7.65, 7.321, 7.3, 7.065.

<h3>How to Order a Set of Decimal Numbers?</h3>

When considering the order of a set of decimal numbers, the value larger the digit that is close to the decimal point, the larger the decimal number, and vice versa.

Given the following set of decimal numbers, 7.321, 7.3, 7.065, 7.65.

Notice that all decimal numbers start with 7. So, the digit close to the decimal point is what we will consider to determine which decimal number is greater or the least.

The decimal number that has the greater digit that is close to the decimal point is, 7.65, followed by 7.321, then 7.3.

The decimal number with the least digit closer to the decimal point is 7.065.

Therefore, the order for the given decimal numbers, from the greatest to the least, is: D. 7.65, 7.321, 7.3, 7.065.
