HELP .-. A painter bought 16 gallons of paint, just to cover two rooms. One room is twice the size of the other room and require

s three coats of paint the smaller room requires only two coats of paint. Then the client decided not to paint the smaller room after all. Let x be the number of gallons it takes for one coat of paint in the large room and y the number for one coat of paint in the small room. How many gallons of paint will be left?

The total number of gallons of paint needed for the big room is 3x and the number of gallons of paint needed for the small room is 2y. 
                                   3x + 2y = 16
Given the sizes of the room, the relation should be that,
                                    x = 2y
Solving the equation,
                                      3(2y) + 2y = 16
                                               y = 2
Therefore x is equal to 4 gallons. 
With the condition that only the bigger room is painted, the number of gallons of paint used should be 12 gallons and what is left should be 4 gallons.

Direction: True or False
Goshia [24]

Answer:

<u>False </u>Any three points are always coplanar

<u>False </u>Two points are always collinear

<u>False </u>Two planes intersect at a point

Read explanations, as the answer to these questions, is subjective.

Step-by-step explanation:

The definition of coplanar is; figures that exist on the same plane. Any three points might not always be colinear, as some points might exist on one plane, but other points could exist on other planes. To visualize this phenomenon, refer to the attached image. Two points could be on the red plane, but the third could be on the green. Therefore, while there are three points, not all of them exist on the same plane. However, another plane can be constructed to connect these points, bear in mind certain problems might specifically indicate that three points are not coplanar, therefore, the answer is false.

The definition of collinear is existing on the same line. This statement is a little subject, it can be both true and false depending on the way one looks at it. A line can be drawn to connect any two points, one only needs two points to determine a line. So technically two points are always collinear. However, it also depends on the circumstance. Certain geometry problems might specifically indicate that two points are not collinear. Thus, it really depends on the context. Therefore, the answer is technically false.

Two planes usually intersect on a line. To understand this, please refer to the image attached. Tehcnailly, if a corner of one plane intersects another, then one can state that the plane intersects on a point, but typically, planes intersect on lines. Therefore, technically the answer to this problem is false, as two planes usually intersect on a line.

Answer:

◻️B. The value of the mode is the least value of the data.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mode is the data value that appears most often

5,7,9,5,18,6,8,5

Arranging the data from smallest to largest

5,5,5,6,7,8,9,18

The number that appears most often is 5

This is the smallest value of the data
