2/5 of 20 = 8. 

3/10 of 20= 6. 

8+6=14. So 20-14= 6

She needs 14 pints, so you subtract 6 from that. Your final answer should be 8 pints.

Mathilda would need to buy 8 more pints of green paint

Further Explanation:

The given question is a typical number problem, and it deals with fractions and whole numbers. In order to derive solutions to numbers problem like the one given, some order of operations i.e. BODMAS would be used. BODMAS is an acronym of Bracket, Of, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction. The below given explanation would involve the use of BODMAS.

Solution:  

Total amount of pints she has = 20 pints

Amount she used to paint a landscape =

2/5 x 20 = 20 x 2 ÷ 5

  = 40 ÷ 5  

  = 8

Amount she used to paint a clover =

3/10 x 20 = 20 x 3 ÷ 10

    = 60 ÷ 10

    = 6

Total amount of used pints of green paint =

Amount she used to paint a landscape + Amount she used to paint a clover =

   = 8 + 6

   = 14

Remainder of pints =

Total amount of pints she has – Total amount of used pints of green paint =

   = 20 – 14  

   = 6  

Determining how much pints she will buy for her next painting:

For her next painting, she needs 14 pints

Her remainder = 6  pints

To derive how much pints she needs to buy, 6 pints would subtracted from 14 pints

  = 14 – 6  

  = 8

Therefore, the total amount of more pints she will buy for next painting = 8

Learning Task 4. Solve the problem by applying the sum and product of roots
Delvig [45]

Answer:

<em>Thus, the dimensions of the metal plate are 10 dm and 8 dm.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

For a quadratic equation:

x^2+bx+c=0

The sum of the roots is -b and the product is c. Note the leading coefficient is 1.

We know the perimeter of the rectangular metal plate is 36 dm and its area is 80 dm^2. Being L and W its dimensions, then:

P=2(L+W)=36

A=L.W=80

Note both formulas are closely related to the roots of the quadratic equation, we only need to adjust the data for the perimeter to be exactly the sum of L+W and not double of it.

Thus we use the semi perimeter instead as P/2=L+W=18

The quadratic equation is, then:

x^2-18x+80=0

Factoring by finding two numbers that add up to 18 and have a product of 80:

(x-10)(x-8)=0

The solutions to the equation are:

x=10, x=8

Thus, the dimensions of the metal plate are 10 dm and 8 dm.

The cafeteria serves pizza every 10 days and corn every 4 days. If they are serving pizza and corn today, in how many days will
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Well it would be 100 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Because they had pizza every ten days and if you add 5 days a week that's 50 days they sell pizza. If your talking corn they sell it every 4 days times 5 days a week that's 20 days of corn. Then you do 50 x 20 and then you get 100 days of pizza and corn, so it would be 100 days before they sell pizza and corn together again!

Line AB contains points A(4, 5) and B(9, 7). What is the slope of AB? 5 2 2 5 N/ur un in ni 2 5 o 2​
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

The answer is

\frac{2}{5}  \\

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line given two points can be found by using the formula

m =  \frac{ y_2 - y _ 1}{x_ 2 - x_ 1}  \\

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

A(4, 5) and B(9, 7).

The slope is

m =  \frac{7 - 5}{9 - 4}  =  \frac{2}{5}  \\

We have the final answer as

\frac{2}{5}  \\

Hope this helps you
