Answer:
Brandon is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
Initially, there id 4 pints of green paint in the bucket.
As the green paint is made from equal amounts of yellow paint and blue paint, so, the initial amount of yellow and blue paint in the bucket is 2 pint each.
Let x pints of yellow paint to be added to the bucket to make the desired shade.
Total amount of the paint in the bucket, after addition of 
pints of yellow color become 
pint, in which the ampunt of yellow color is 
pints.
As, the ampunt of yellow color is 80% of the total amount of the mixture, so
So, 6 pints of yellow paint to be added to the bucket to make the desired shade.
Hence, Brandon is correct.
Answer:
x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Rearrange equation by making x's on one side and numbers on the other
2x - x = 9 - 8
x = 1
Answer:
and 
.
Step-by-step explanation:
So I believe the problem is this:
where we are asked to find values for 
and 
such that the equation holds for any in the equation's domain.
So I'm actually going to get rid of any domain restrictions by multiplying both sides by (x-3)(x+7).
In other words this will clear the fractions.
As you can see there was some cancellation.
I'm going to plug in -7 for x because x+7 becomes 0 then.
Divide both sides by -10:
Now we have:
with
I notice that x-3 is 0 when x=3. So I'm going to replace x with 3.
Divide both sides by 10:
So and .
The answer is 6. Because 4x6=32
