Answer:
<em>2 gallons </em>
Step-by-step explanation:
If Han used 1 1/2 gallons of paint to paint 3/5 of a shed, this can be expressed as;
1 1/2 gallons = 3/5 of the shed
3/2gallons = 3/5 of the shed
To find the number of gallons that will paint the whole shed, we will say;
x gallons = 1 shed
Divide both expressions
3/2/x = 3/5
3/2x = 3/4
2x * 3 = 3*4
6x = 12
x = 12/6
x = 2
<em>Hence 2 gallons will be needed for the whole shed</em>
1/2 y +6 = x
y=2 (x-6)
= 2x-12
f^-1 (x)= 2x-12
Answer:
Part A) 700 Snack Bags
Part B) [$]1225.00
Step-by-step explanation:
Pretzels and cheese puffs make up 30% (0.30) of the sales which means 210 is 30% of the total bags they sold. You could set up a ratio like this where 1 represents 100%:
210/.30 = x/1
If solved out, you find there are 700 bags total and you can check it by finding that 210 is 30% of 700.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Each of the triangles is similar, so we have ...
3/5 = (3+x)/20
x = 20(3/5) -3
x = 9
__
4/5 = (4+y)/20
y = 20(4/5) -4
y = 12
__
3/5 = (3 + x + u)/60
u = 60(3/5) -3 -9
u = 24
__
4/5 = (4 +y +v)/60
v = 60(4/5) -4 -12
v = 32
