-q-7q=8
First you need to know that there is an invisible 1 in front of -q. Change it to -q if you need to. You get:
-1q-7q=8
add like terms: -1-7 gives you -8.
-8q=8. Divide by -8 on both sides to find q.
-8/8=-1
8/8=1
Therefore, q=1.
Answer:
We will need about 3.3 gallons of red paint.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
- w = amount of white paint
The amount of red paint is half the amount of white paint.
r = 1/2 w
w = 2r [1]
We need to make a total of 10 gallons. Then,
r + w = 10 [2]
Replacing [1] in [2]
r + (2r) = 10
3r = 10
r = 3.3
We will need about 3.3 gallons of red paint.
The question is asking for a fourth of a third.
1/4 of 1/3
"of" = multiplying in math
1/4 x 1/3
= 1/12
That means it is cut in twelfths and it has 12 slices.
Answer= 12 slices
Hope this helps :)
