Answer:
1500 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
2 gallons of paint can cover 600 square feet
the ratio is 2:600 if you simplify you will get 1:300
We need to find how much we can cover with 5 gallons so just times each side of the ratio by 5 after simplifying.
Hope this helps
Answer:
slope : 1/15
Step-by-step explanation:
slope = change in y / change in x
change in y = 1 / change in x = 15
therefore, 1/15 = slope
To solve this equation from the information given above, I ordered it 5x+12=8x. To solve, I subtracted 5x from each side, canceling the 5x to your left, leaving only the number 12. 8x minus 5x equals 3x. Take 3x and divide on both sides. 3x/3x cancels the 3, leaving 12/3 equals 4. Finally, x equals 4.
