12 gallons of white paint

divide 20 gallons by 5 to obtain 1 part of the ratio

\frac{20}{5} = 4 gallons ← 1 part

white paint = 3 × 4 = 12 gallons ← 3 parts

He used 12 gallons of white paint.

Because 20 divided by 5 = 4. Meaning that 4 gallons is one part.

4 x 5 = 20
4 x 3 = 12

I’m so confused I need help please!!

Answer:

5. 9 8. 2\sqrt{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

a²+b²=c²

so for #5 12²+b²=15²

144+b²=225 (subtract 144 from both sides)

b²=81

b=9

For #8

9²+b²=11²

81+b²=121 (subtract 81 from both sides)

b²=40

b=\sqrt{40}

\sqrt{40}=

2\sqrt{10}

What is the answer to 2x+4y=16:4y=12
allsm [11]

Answer:

Here,

2x + 4y = 16....eqn \: i \\ 4y = 12....eqn \: ii

substituting the value of 4y in eqn i fron eqn ii

so eqn i becomes

2x + 12 = 16 \\ 2x = 4 \\ x = 2

So

y = 12 \div 4 = 3

Thus,

x = 2 \: and \: y = 3

...hope this helps:)
