Answer:
2 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
2 gallons of paint
Explanation:
If 3/4 of a gallon covers 2/5 of a wall, this means that a half of 3/4 gallons can cover 1/5 of a wall.
By knowing this, you can just make up your own expression
(the trick is to find a way to break it down to one, so you can multiply and manipulate it to save yourself some brain cells)

if

=
38
= amount of paint to cover 1/5 wall
then
(38)⋅5

≈
1.875
since we're talking about real life it would be 2 gallons of paint instead of 1.875 gallons to paint the whole wall
Hope this helps!
I think what you are looking for is 5x=300 therefore x=60 so at 60cars he would start to make more.
The answer is option c.
That is, the wrong step in step 6. It was written that the center of the circunference is the point (2.1). However, the general equation of a circumference is:
(X- (a)) ^ 2 + (Y- (b)) ^ 2 = r ^ 2
Where the point (a, b) is the center of the circle.
So for this case the point for the center is: (-2, -1)
as we move down the list as we push the *digits* to the *left*through the decimal *point* *each* *number has been 10*. and so we can easily *multiply* or divide by *a* power of *10* because of our system of positional numeration. Each Place belongs to the next power of *10*.
Subtract the right side and you have
x² -10x -6 -2x -1 = 0
x² -12x -7 = 0
This corresponds to the selection ...
C. x² -12x - 7 = 0
