30 gallons of red paint & 20 gallons of blue paint
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of red to blue paint drops to make purple paint is 3 : 2
Therefore the total number of gallon, in this case, fifty (50) is equivalent to the total of two ratios (which is 3 + 2 5)
If 5 in the ratio = 50; what about 2 & 3
5 = 50
2 = x
After cross multiplication;
5x = 50 * 2
X = 100/5
X = 20
The same for ratio 3
5 = 50
3 = y
5y = 50 * 3
y = 150/5
y = 30
The answer is therefore; 30 gallons of red paint to 20 gallons of blue paint

Step-by-step explanation: Explanation:
If
L
,
H
and
W
represent the length, height and width of the prism, then the volume of the rectangular prism is :
V
=
L
.
H
.
W
............. (1)
Given :
V
=
x
3
+
11
x
2
+
20
x
−
32
;
............... (2)
W
=
(
x
−
1
)
;
H
=
(
x
+
8
)
.
Let
L
=
(
x
+
l
0
)
be the expression for the length, then the RHS of equation (1) becomes
L
.
H
.
W
=
(
x
−
l
0
)
(
x
+
8
)
(
x
−
1
)
,
=
(
x
+
l
0
)
(
x
2
+
7
x
−
8
)
=
(
x
+
l
0
)
(
x

x

)
=
x

(

+
(

)
x
−

l

..... (3)
Comparing this to the LHS of equation (1), we get the following set of equations to solve for
l

;
l

Therefore
L
=
(
x
+
4
)
