Answer:

60 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

A certain mixture of paint contains 5 parts white paint for every 4 parts blue paint, that is, the white paint (w) to blue paint (b) ratio is 5:4. We can apply this ratio to different units such as ounces. This means that the mixture has 5 ounces of white paint to 4 ounces of blue paint. If a can of paint contains 75 ounces of white paint, the ounces of blue paint in the can are:

75 oz w × (4 oz b/5 oz w) = 60 oz b

How do i determine the value of sine
Margaret [11]
Well, you can do that by many ways like:
If you have value of B & P or B & H, you can find the other one by the formula,
H² = P²+B²
Then, you can easily calculate the value of sine by putting P/H

Hope this helps!

Hi, I'm often really slow at learning math and my condition makes it harder, can someone help me?
NARA [144]
The answer: 0, 4/5 and 5


Explanation: first, we factor out 2x and get: 2x(5x^2-29x+20)=0

In order for this equation to be equal to zero, either 2x must equal to zero or (5x^2-29x+20) must equal to zero

Having said that, if:
2x = 0
X=0

If:
(5x^2-29x+20) = 0
X=4/6, x=5

C. 48

If Lionel started with 48, and he gave 1/2 of them to Rick (24), then he is left with 24. If he then gives his brother 1/2 of that (12) then he has 12 left.
