2 1/2 gallons of paint.

If 1/2 gallon covers 1/5 of the wall, multiply 1/2 gallon by 5 to find how much is needed to cover 5/5, or the entire wall. You get 5/2. Now, simplify. 5/2 = 2 1/2 gallons of paint.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of Payday be p and Baby Ruth be b

<u>Then sub of the candy bars:</u>

  • p + b = 220
  • Payday candy bars worth ⇒ $2p
  • Baby Ruth candy bars worth ⇒ $3b
  • Total ⇒ $600

1. <u>Required equations:</u>

  • p + b = 220
  • 2p + 3b = 600

2. <u>Solving by substitution:</u>

p = 220 - b, consider it in the second equation

  • 2(220 - b) + 3b = 600
  • 660 - 2b + 3b = 600
  • 660 + b = 600
  • b = 660 - 600
  • b = 60

castortr0y [4]
Answer: each width = 10, each length = 21

Explanation: from the question we know that L=2w + 1 and we also know that a rectangle has the perimeter of 62 when we plug it in the equation we will get 62= 2(2w+1+w) we will multiply the 2 now and we will get 62=4w+2+2w we will combine like terms and we will minus two from both sides ending up with 60=6w we will divide six from both sides and we will get w=10 then we will use l=2w+1 to find the length and it will be 21
