It takes three 1-gallon buckets to paint 72sqft, if you simplify or find the unit rate, you can know that you can paint 24sqft with one 1-gallon bucket of paint. Since you need to paint 90 sqft, you can’t use three buckets because it only covers 72sqft, but if you use 4 buckets, it will cover 96sqft.

THE ANSWER IS 4 1-GALLON BUCKETS OF PAINT

SOVA2 [1]
Part A:
Luke's original box of cereal costs $2 more than the super-saving brand.

y=9(1) 
y=9

11-9=2

Part B:
y=9(6)
y=54

11x6=66

66-54=12

Luke saves $12 each month if he buys 6 boxes of the super-saving brand.

Pair the equivalent fractions.
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

1. c      2. a     3. b

Step-by-step explanation:

The best way to prove these results are the right ones is by multiplying diagonally :

1.  1/3 = 4/12  -----> 1 . 12 = 12  ; 3 . 4 =12

2.  1/2 = 3/6 ------> 1 . 6 = 6  ;  2 . 3 = 6

3.  2/5 = 6/15 -----> 2 . 15 = 30  ;  5 . 6 = 30

The results of the multiplications must be the same if the fractions are equivalent.

45 minus 4.5. Show work
Dmitrij [34]
Let's do subtraction by first starting with the ones place and then the tenths place of the subtrahend.
45-4=41; 44, 43, 42, 41
41-.5= 40.5; 40.9, 40.8, 40.7, 40.6, 40.5
45-4.5=40.5
We can check by using addition.
40.5+4.5=
44+1=

14.12 = 1/2 (3.6x - 12.8)<br><br> show work
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

x = 11.4

Step-by-step explanation:

14.12 = \frac{1}{2} ( 3.6x - 12.8 )

Rewrite so that the equation is entirely in decimals;

14.12 = 0.5( 3.6x - 12.8 )

Distribute;

14.12 = 1.8x - 6.4

Inverse operations;

14.12 = 1.8x - 6.4

+6.4            +6.4

20.52 = 1.8x

/1.8        /1.8

11.4 = x
