Answer:

80 buckets of red paint

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The ratio of buckets of yellow paint to buckets of red paint in the store to be 3:4

Total ratio = 3 + 4 = 7

Amount of yellow paint = 60

Required

Amount of red paint.

First get the total amount of paint used.

3/7 * x = 60

x is the total paint used

3x/7 = 60

3x = 7*60

x = 420/3

x = 140 buckets of paint

Amount of red paint = Total - Amount of yellow paint

Amount of red paint = 140 - 60

Amount of red paint = 80

Hence there are 80 buckets of red paint in the store

How many solutions does the system have?<br> y=-2x -4 <br> y=3x + 3
baherus [9]

Answer:

x=−7/5and y=−6/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step: Substitute−2x−4foryiny=3x+3:

y=3x+3

−2x−4=3x+3

−2x−4+−3x=3x+3+−3x(Add -3x to both sides)

−5x−4=3

−5x−4+4=3+4(Add 4 to both sides)

−5x=7

−5x

−5

=

7

−5

(Divide both sides by -5)

x=−7/5
