Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to make a specific shade of green paint, a painter mixes 1 1/2 quarts of blue paint. Converting 1.5 quarts to cup,
1 quart = 4 cups
1.5 quarts = 1.5 × 4 = 6 cups
She also used 1/2 gallon of white paint. Converting 0.5 gallons to cup,
0.0625 gallons = 1 cup
0.5 gallons = 0.5/0.0625 = 8 cups
This means that the ratio of cups of blue paint to green paint to white paint is 6: 2 :8
Total ratio = 6 +2 + 8 = 16
To make 100 cups of this shade of green,
Cups of blue paint needed = 6/16 × 100 = 37.5 cups
Cups of green paint needed = 2/16 × 100 = 12.5 cups
Cups of white paint needed = 8/16 × 100 = 50 cups
Answer:
x = - 4, x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the x- intercepts let y = 0 , that is
- 3(x + 4)(x - 6) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4
x - 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 6
First we need to know how many people were asked - 120 + 630 = 750 people
Now we make fractions - 120/750 and 630/750
Divide the fractions - 120/750 = 0.16 and 630/750 = 0.84
Multiply the results by 100 so we can get the percentage - 0.16 x 100 = 16% and 0.84 x 100 = 84%
The percentage of people that like playing golf is 16%.
The simplified answer is 27m^2
Answer: Hong drove the truck for 294 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let m represent the number of miles for which he drove the truck.
There was a base fee of $20.95, and there was an additional charge of 90 cents for each mile driven. It means that the expression for the cost of driving the truck for m miles in a day is
20.95 + 0.9m
Hong had to pay $285.55 when he returned the truck. It means that
20.95 + 0.9m = 285.55
0.9m = 285.55 - 20.95
0.9m = 264.6
m = 264.6/0.9
m = 294 miles
