To find the amount of paint,we can set an equation.

Lets x be the amount of paint:

65%x = 30
x = 30 ÷ 65%
x = 30 ÷ 0.65
x = 46.1538...
x ≈ 46.154(corr. to 3 demical places)

Therefore the answer is 46.154 oz.

Hope it helps!

Student P:

They messed up in step 1 because they made the 7.75 positive instead of negative, which causes the entire solution to be wrong

Student Q:

They were correct up until step 3. They didn't take all the negatives out of the equation (ex. -(3.5+7.75+29.67)).

Complete set:

From the picture, it looks like the original problem was

-2.5(1.4+3.1)+6.9(-4.3)

Step 1: multiply

1.4(-2.5)+3.1(-2.5)+6.9(-4.3)

Step 2: subtract (add?) them all together

-3.5-7.75-29.67

Step 3 should equal -40.92

Identify the property used in the first four steps to solve the equation 4(x-7)=2x-6
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

x = 11

distributive law

additive law

multiplication property

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question an equation

4(x-7) = 2x-6

Distributive law

a(b+c) = ab +ac

4x - 4(7) = 2x - 6

4x -28 = 2x - 6

Use the addition property of equality to reduce the 2x on the right.

4x - 2x - 28 = 2x - 2x -6

4x -2x -28 = -6

Use the addition property of equality to reduce -28 to zero on the left.

4x - 2x- 28 + 28 = -6 + 28

2x = 22

Use the multiplication property of equality to reduce 2x to just x

2x2 = 22/22

x = 22/2

x = 11

A classic counting problem is to determine the number of different ways that the letters of “dissipate” can be arranged. Find th
alexdok [17]

Answer:

90720 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 9 letters, there are 9! ways to arrange them. However since there are repeating letters, we have to divide to remove the duplicates accordingly. There are 2 ‘s’ and 2 ‘i’ hence:

Number of way to arrange ‘dissipate’ = 9! / (2! x 2!) = 90720 ways

Hence there are 90720 ways to have the number of dissipate in the letter.

grin007 [14]

Answer:

t = 2.7

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Use formula provided

2. A = 3500 B = 2000 r = 4.75 n = 12months/4 = 3 months t = ?

3. Solve

3500=2000(1+4.75/3)^3t

3t=logbase(31/12)*1500

t=logbase(31/12)*1500 / 3

t ≅2.568
