The number of buckets is directly proportional to the area and the thickness of the wall and inversely proportional to the amount of paint. Mathematically, we can write:
n = k · (a · t) / p
where k is the proportionality constant which we do not know.
We can calculate k with the given data: 5 2-gallon buckets, area of 100 square feet and thickness 3 inches:
k = (n · p) / (<span>a · t)
= (5 </span>· 2) / (100 · 3) = 0.0333
Now that we know the constant, we can calculate the area that can be painted with 8 2-gallon buckets if the thickness is 6 inches:
a = (n · p) / (k<span> · t)
= (8 </span>· 2) / (0.0333 · 6)
= 80 ft²
Please, note that we made sure to have the exact same units of measurements than the previous case.
Therefore, the correct answer is an area of 80 ft².

Answer:
The original price of the pants was $30.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be equal to the original price of the pants.
Because the pants are 40% off, their final price was 60% of the original price. 60% as a decimal is 0.6. Using this information, we can set up the following equation and solve:
0.6x=18
Divide both sides by 0.6
0.6x/0.6=18/0.6
x=30
I hope this helps!
He must work about 4-5 more hours, and if he works 4 hours, he would earn $240, and $300 + $240 = $540. Or, if he works for 5 hours, it would equal $300. $300 + $300 IS $600, and his savings may be $60 or $100. Your Choice.
