Answer:
6 1/4 pints
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of yellow paint to red paint = 2.5 : 4.
We have 10 pints of red paint so 2.5 / 4 = x / 10 where x is the volume of yellow paint.
4x = 2.5 * 10
x = 25/4
= 6 1/4 pints.
Answer:
2.5 * 10/4 = 6.25 pints of yellow paint

Answer:
the question is incorrect. please write your points as coordinates or scan the diagram.
X equals the square root of 6-x
x= the eqaution for number 2
-16t^2+400=0
16t^2=400
take square root on both sides.

4t=20
t=20/4
t=5
<u>c = 5 </u>
-3 - 7 = -10
-2c = -10
-10/ -2 = c
c = 5
