Answer:

2/5

3/4

2 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

red paint: 3/20

blue paint: 9/20

white paint: x

What fraction of the mixture is white paint?

x + 3/20 + 9/20 = 1

x + 12/20 = 20/20

x = 8/20 = 2/5

2/5 of the paint mixture is white paint.

The paint is sold in 5-litre containers. How many litres of red paint are needed for each container?

3/20 × 5 litre = 3/4 litre

Each container needs 3/4 liter of red paint.

How many litres of blue paint are needed for each container?

9/20 × 5 litres = 9/4 litres = 2 1/4 litres

Each container needs 2 1/4 liter of blue paint.

Which one is the right answer?
azamat

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, i mean A and B are out first thing because you don't have enough information to find out if it's true.

C is incorrect because as stated before, not enough information.

<u><em>However,</em></u>

You know that the angles 1-8 are all supplementary, which means that 1 and 2 can be added to make 180 degrees, as so can 3 and 4, 3 and 1. 2 and 4, blah blah blah.

In D, the angles that are being added are supplementary, because the three lines making up that weird figure is adjacent and is parallel to each other.

If you give one of the angles a degree, you know that 180-x with x being that degree, will equal the other angle on the other side of the lines.

Therefore its D.

Edit:

I just realized that theres an angle stated at the top of the screen. Still with that angle given, A and B is incorrect and the answer is still D.

What is the probability that a family of 4 children will have all girls?
Alex73 [517]
Since as of now we're saying that the probability of having a girl is 1/2, we can say:
1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2, because then you're saying a one half chance of having a girl times another one half chance of having a girl, etc.
 That ends up to be 1/16.

A line passes through (9, –9) and (10, –5).Write an equation for the line in point-slope form.
CaHeK987 [17]
Y - y1 = [-9-(-5)]/[(9-10] * (x - x1)

y - (-9) = [-9 + 5] / [-1] * (x - 9)

y + 9 = (-4) / (-1) * (x - 9)

y + 9 = 4(x - 9)

y + 9 = 4x - 36

y = 4x - 36 - 9

y = 4x - 45  This is the slope - intercept form.

y - 4x + 45 = 0 This is the standard form
