Digiron [165]2 years ago

Answer:

7 gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the space that needs paints by how much space has been painted

2500/785 = 3.18

Then double that because it takes 2 gallons to paint every 785 square feet

3.18 x 2 = 6.36

You would need 6.36 gallons of paint, which would round up to 7 because you cannot buy 0.36 of a gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

\underline{\begin{array}{c|c|c|c}4&1&7&3\end{array}}\\\begin{array}{c|c|c|c}4&0&0&0\\&1&0&0\\&&7&0\\&&&3\end{array}

4,173 = 4,000 + 100 + 70 + 3\\\\=4\times1,000+1\times100+7\times10+3\times1\\\\=4\times10^3+1\times10^2+7\times10^1+3\times10^0

an architect wants to build three similar triangles such that the ratio of the middle triangle. The smallest one has side length
vampirchik [111]

Answer:  15

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

small:     5     12      13

middle:  __   36     39

large:    45   108    117

Notice that to get from the small to the large, multiplied by 9

5(9) = 45    12(9) = 108    13(9) = 117

That is because the sides are proportional \dfrac{5}{45}=\dfrac{12}{108}=\dfrac{13}{117}\rightarrow\dfrac{1}{9}

To get from small to middle, multiply by 3  

5(3) = 15     12(3) = 36    13(3) = 39

To solve it using proportions:

\dfrac{5}{x}=\dfrac{12}{36}\\\\\\\text{Cross Multiply and solve for x:}\\5(36)=12x\\\\\dfrac{5(36)}{12}=x\\\\5(3)=x\\\\\large\boxed{15}=x
