Answer:

We will need about 3.3 gallons of red paint.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

  • r = amount of red paint
  • w = amount of white paint

The amount of red paint is half the amount of white paint.

r = 1/2 w

w = 2r [1]

We need to make a total of 10 gallons. Then,

r + w = 10 [2]

Replacing [1] in [2]

r + (2r) = 10

3r = 10

r = 3.3

We will need about 3.3 gallons of red paint.

6. A coupon offers $1.00 off the 16-ounce size. Which size is the better<br><br> buy then?
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

Both sizes are better because they cost Same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

A coupon offers $1.00 off the 16

            Quantity     Price

Pint           16           $3.98

Quart        32           $5.98

If he gets $1 off for the 16-ounce size. The price will be:

3.98-1=2.98

He needs to pay $2.98 for 16-ounce pint.

Now find which one is better by calculating the unit rate.

\frac{Cost}{weight}=\frac{2.98 }{16}\approx0.186

Therefore, the cost of 1lb would be $0.186

For Quart 32 find the unit rate as shown:

\frac{Cost}{weight}=\frac{5.98}{32}\approx0.186

Therefore, the cost of 1lb would be $0.186

Hence, both of the size are better as the unit rate is same.

Find three consecutive even integers if three times the first integer is two times the third.​
drek231 [11]

Using a system of equations, it is found that the three consecutive even integers are -8, -6 and -4.

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.

In this problem, the three consecutive even integers are represented by:

n, n + 2, n + 4

The first integer is two times the third, hence:

n = 2(n + 4)

2n + 8 = n

n = -8

Thus:

n = -8

n + 2 = -8 + 2 = -6

n + 4 = -8 + 4 = -4

The integers are -8, -6 and -4.
