Answer:

9 cans of white paint

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this you can set up a ratio.

The ratio right now is 3 : 2, you have 3 cans of white paint for every 2 cans of blue paint. This question is asking how many white paint cans would be needed for 6 cans of blue paint. You can see the relationship between the number of blue paint cans and the new number of blue paint cans, maybe it's multiplying by 4 or 2 for example, and once we find that out we can do the same exact thing to the white cans.

\frac{3}{2}  = \frac{?}{6}

We can see that to get from 2 to 6 you multiply by 3, so now we do that to the other side of the fraction as well, we multiply by 3. 3 multiplied by 3 is 9, so if we were to have 6 cans of blue paint we would need 9 cans of white paint to get that perfect shade of light blue. Anne would need 9 cans of white paint if she had 6 cans of blue paint to make her shade of blue.

∠A and \angle B∠B are vertical angles. If m\angle A=(3x+3)^{\circ}∠A=(3x+3) ∘ and m\angle B=(4x-8)^{\circ}∠B=(4x−8) ∘ , then fin

Answer:

The value of x is 11 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, given that two angles are vertical angles, we are interested in calculating the value of x. We simply want to use an important property of vertical angles to get the value of x as given in the question.

When we talk of vertical angles, they are angles which lies on opposite side to each other when we have two intersecting line.

By property, vertically opposite angles are equal.

Thus, in this case, we are to equate the angles we are having since they are both vertical angles;

Thus,

Mathematically;

angle A = angle B

3x + 3 = 4x -8

Collect like terms;

4x-3x = 3 + 8

x = 11 degrees

A truck uses 1 tablespoon of gasoline to drive 125 yards. How many miles can the vehicle travel per gallon?
Alborosie

Answer:

18.18 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

A truck uses 1 tablespoon of gasoline to drive 125 yards.

Now, 1 gallon of gasoline contains 256 tablespoons of gasoline.

So, the truck uses 1 gallon i.e. 256 tablespoons of gasoline to drive (256 × 125) = 32000 yards.

Now, 1-mile distance contains 1760 yards.

Therefore, the truck uses 1 gallon of gasoline to drive \frac{32000}{1760} = 18.18 miles. (Answer)
