Slope = y2 - y1/x2 - x1
= -3 - (-1)/8 - (-2)
= -3 + 1/ 8 + 2
= -2/ 6
= - 1/3
hope this helps :)
Answer:Add 44 liters blue
Step-by-step explanation:Mary has 20 liters of paint mixed white:blue in the ratio 2:3. So two fifths of that paint is white and three fifths is blue. So that's 8 liters white, 12 liters blue.
We want to add paint to get white:blue = 1:7. Clearly we need to add blue. We have our 8 liters of white, so we need a total of 7(8)=56 liters of blue. We already have 12, so we have to add 56-12=44 liters of blue paint:
If you divide 20 acres into 1/4 sections you'll get
20 ÷ 1/4 sections. When you divide fractions, you just multiply the reciprocal.
20 ÷ 1/4 =
20 × 4/1 = 80 sections
