Answer:

White = 1.67 gallons

Blue = 0.33 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

White : blue = 3 : 1

Total ratio = 3 + 1

= 4

Gallons = 2

White = 3 /4 × 2

= 6 /4

= 3/2 gallons

Blue = 1 / 4 × 2

= 2/4

= 1/2

If he later decide to dilute the color to a ratio of 5:1

Total ratio = 5 + 1

= 6

Total gallons = 2

White = 5 / 6 × 2

= 10/6

= 5/3 gallons

Or

= 1.67 gallons

Blue = 1 / 6 × 2

= 2 / 6

= 1/3 gallons

Or

= 0.33 gallons

Which of the following are equations for the line shown below? Check all that apply.
Nuetrik [128]

Answer: D. y+4=(x+2)

Step-by-step explanation: Once you subtract 4 from both sides, in order to solve for y (as the equation needs to be in the slope-intercept form, otherwise known as y=mx+b), you end up with y=x-2, which is the right answer. It is the correct answer because the y-intecept shown in the equation matches what is on the graph, in addition to the fact that the slope is just x.

WIll give brainliest Use the information given to answer the question.
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

x²-12x+36

Step-by-step explanation:

an expression in the form (a-b)² is expanded to the form a²-2ab+b²

you can also expand it to (x-6)×(x-6) then multiply the first term by the first the outer term by the outer term the inner term by the inner term and the last term by the last term (foil)

the first terms are x and x = x² the outer terms are x and -6 = -6x the inner terms are also x and -6 = -6x

the last terms are 6 and 6 = 36

adding all the four products =

x²-12x+36

If two triangles have three corresponding angles and three corresponding sides that are equal in measure, are the two triangles
nikitadnepr [17]
Yes, they are.

If the triangles have three corresponding angles equal means that they are either similar or congruent.

The definition of congruent means that the sides have the same length. That is precisely what the statement says.

So, being the lengths of the corresponding angles the same the two triangles are identical, this is they are congruent.
