Answer:

She use <u>5.88 pints</u> of white paint.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Pearl uses 9.8 pints of blue paint and white paint to paint her bedroom walls. \frac{2}{5} of this amount is blue paint, and the rest is white paint.

Now, to find the pints of white paint she use.

Pearl uses total pint of paint = 9.8 pints.

The amount of blue paint

= \frac{2}{5}\ of\ 9.8\ pints.

= \frac{2}{5} \times 9.8

= \frac{19.6}{5}

= 3.92\ pints.

Thus, the amount of blue paint = 3.92 pints.

Now, to get the white paint we subtract the amount of blue paint from  the total pint of paint:

9.8-3.92\\\\=5.88\ pints.

Therefore, she use 5.88 pints of white paint.

Not a chuckle, not a hehe, not even a subtle burst of air out of my esophagus. Science says before you laugh your brain preps your face muscles but I didn't even feel the slightest twitch. 0/10 this joke is so bad I cannot believe anyone legally allowed you to be creative at all.

Answer:

$1.25

September

$30

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take this a step a time.

First we need to find how much the price of the flowers were in September.

We know that each flower cost $1.50 on October.

The October price was a 20% increase of the September price.

To calculate for the price of the flowers on September, we can solve it like this:

Let x = Price during September

1.2x = 1.50

We used 1.2 because the price of $1.50 is 120% of the original price.

Now we divide both sides by 1.2 to find x.

\dfrac{1.2x}{1.2}=\dfrac{1.5}{1.2}

x = 1.25

The price of the flowers during September was $1.25 each.

Now the 7th grade class earned 40% of the selling price of each flower.

40% = 0.40

To find how much they made on each month, we simply multiply the percentage to the price and the number of flowers sold.

September = 0.40 x 1.25 x 900

September = 0.5 x 900

September = $450

Now for October.

October = 0.40 x 1.50 x 700

October = 0.6 x 700

October = $420

The 7th Graders earned more on September.

They earned $30 more on September than October.
