<h3>Trina uses 3.44 or 
pints of white paint</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
Trina uses 8.6 pints of blue paint and white paint to paint her bedroom walls
3/5 of the amount is blue paint, and the rest is white paint
From given,
3/5 of 8.6 pints is blue paint
Thus, 2/5 of 8.6 pints is white paint
<em><u>How many pints of white paint did she use to paint her bedroom walls? </u></em>
Thus she uses 3.44 or 17.2/5 pints of white paint
For slope, people sometimes use the description 'rise divided by run'. We know that the y axis describes rise, and the x axis describes run. So rise divided by run written numerically is . Now let's look at the line above. We can see that every time the y value goes up one unit, the x value goes right two units. This means that [tex]\frac{y}{x} --> \frac{y + 1}{x + 2}
This can be rewritten as 1/2, so the is 1/2. Hope this helped.
