Answer: Sorry, I’m lazy today so I’ll just answer the first question, letter a. The answer is 30 cups of red paint.
Step-by-step explanation: Since you need 2 cups of blue paint and 4 cups of red paint, the ratio of the amount of cups you need for each paint is 1 cup of blue for every 2 cups of red. You need 15 cups of blue so you multiply it by 2 and you get 30. I hope this wasn’t confusing and I hope this helps. Please listen to you teacher because it would really help you on your work.
(0,5)(4,0)
slope = (0 - 5) / (4 - 0) = -5/4
y = mx + b
slope(m) = -5/4
use either of ur sets of points....(0,5)...x = 0 and y = 5
now we sub and find b, the y int
5 = -5/4(0) + b
5 = b
so ur equation is : y = -5/4x + 5...but we need it in standard form...
y = -5/4x + 5
5/4x + y = 5....multiply everything by common denominator of 4
5x + 4y = 20 <== standard form of Ax + By = C
