Apainter mixes 2.5 pints of yellow paint with 4 pints of red paint to make a certain shade of orange paint. how many pints of yellow paint should be mixed with 10 pints of red paint to make this shade of orange?

6 1/4 pints

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of yellow paint to red paint = 2.5 : 4.

We have  10 pints of red paint so 2.5 / 4 = x / 10  where x is the volume of yellow paint.

4x = 2.5 * 10

x = 25/4

= 6 1/4 pints.

ad = ae + ed = y + 7

similar triangles therefor

ac/ab = ad/ae

6/4 = (y + 7) / y

cross multiply

6y = 4(y + 7)

6y = 4y + 28

2y = 28

y = 14

step-by-step explanation:

81 seats

step-by-step explanation:

if you multiply 0.65 times 125 then you get 81.5 seats. well since you can't have half of a seat you have to round down and get 81 seats in the no children zones. that leave 44 seats outside of the no children zone.
