The pints of paint that Mike needs to buy in order to paint 4 boxes is 9 pints.



How many pints is needed?


The first step is determine the total surface area of a box.


Total surface area of a cuboid = 2 (lw + wh + lh)


where:
l = length
w = width
h = height


2 x[ (5 x 9/2) + (9/2 x 7/2) + (5 x 7/2) ]
2 x ( 45/2 + 63/4 + 35/2) = 111.5ft


The second step is to determine the total surface area of 4 boxes:


111.5 x 4 = 446


Now, divide 446 by 50


446 / 50 = 9 pints

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The question contains typos as I believe the boxes should be 5x4.2x3.2 in dimensions instead.

Assuming that and all 6 faces of each storage boxes will be painted, the surface area of each box is:

= (5*4.2*2) + (4.2*3.2*2) + (3.2*5*2)

= 100.88 square feet

4 boxes will have a total surface area of

100.88*4

= 403.52 square feet

Each pint of paint covers 50 square feet so a total of

403.52/50 = 8.07 or

9 pints is needed.

In 1/8 days, a construction crew built 1/4 miles of a road. What is the unit rate in miles per day.
tigry1 [53]

The unit rate of road construction is 2 miles per day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

In \frac{1}{8} days \frac{1}{4} miles road is constructed.

To find

The rate of road constructed per day

Method

We will apply unitary method to solve it.

Now,

In \frac{1}{8} days \frac{1}{4} miles road is constructed.

In 1 day the road will be constructed = \frac{1}{4} ÷ \frac{1}{8} miles

= 2 miles

Determine the equation of the line that goes through points (1.1) and (3.7).
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

The equation of the line that goes through points (1,1) and (3,7) is \mathbf{y=3x-2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine the equation of the line that goes through points (1,1) and (3,7)

We can write the equation of line in slope-intercept form y=mx+b where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

We need to find slope and y-intercept.

Finding Slope

Slope can be found using formula: Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have x_1=1, y_1=1, x_2=3, y_2=7

Putting values and finding slope

Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\Slope=\frac{7-1}{3-1}\\Slope=\frac{6}{2}\\Slope=3

We get Slope = 3

Finding y-intercept

y-intercept can be found using point (1,1) and slope m = 3

y=mx+b\\1=3(1)+b\\1=3+b\\b=1-3\\b=-2

We get y-intercept b = -2

So, equation of line having slope m=3 and y-intercept b = -2 is:

y=mx+b\\y=3x-2

The equation of the line that goes through points (1,1) and (3,7) is \mathbf{y=3x-2}
