Sally used all of the paint shown to make a certain tint of orange paint. How many pints of red paint should be mixed with 24 pi

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

18 pints

Step-by-step explanation:

As we can see, three pint of yellow paint was mixed with four pint of red paint. Let x represent the number of yellow paint and let y represent the number of red paint. Therefore, the ratio of the two paints is:

x/y = 3/4

x = (3/4)y

To calculate the number of red paints (x) that is needed to be mixed with 24 pints of yellow paint, we use the equation and substitute y as 24. Hence:

x = (3/4)y

x = (3/4) * 24

x = 18 pints

A rectangular prism has a volume of 19 cm if the length of the prism is tripled and the other dimensions stay the same what is t

eimsori [14]

Answer:

The volume of the new prism is three times the volume of the old prism

Step-by-step explanation:

To carry out this problem we have to invent 3 variables that represent length, width and height

w = width

h = height

l = length = 19cm

Now we have to do the equation that represents the calculation of the volume of the prism

v = w * h * l

v = w * h * 19

v = 19hw

assuming the length is tripled

v = w * h * 3l

v = w * h * 3 * 19

v = 57wh

To know the volume of the new prism with respect to the previous one, we simply divide the volume of the new prism by the previous one.

57hw / 19hw = 3

The volume of the new prism is three times the volume of the old prism
