Henry needs 2 pints of red paint and 3 pints of yellow
paint to get a specific shade of orange. If he uses 9 pints
of yellow paint and wants the same orange color, how
many pints of paint will he need altogether? Explain how
you know

henry needs 15 pints

Step-by-step explanation:

3+2=5

9 is 3 time 3

so to get the same orange henry must also

have 3 time 2 for red

9+6=15

Henry will need a total of 15 pints of paint. The 3 pints of yellow were multiplied by 3 to get 9 total, so 2 pints of red would be multiplied by 3 to get 6 total.

second option

step-by-step explanation:

the measures of a triangle equal 180. use that to find x.

2x+3x+4x=180

9x=180

9x/9=180/9

x=20

now you know x, you know angle a is 40°, angle b is 60°, angle c is 80°.

because angle a is 40°, the first option doesn't work.

because angle b is 60°, the second option does work.

when you add angle a and b, you get 100°. complementary means it equals 90°, so the third option doesn't work.

when you add angle a and c, you get 120°, which is not 100.

●yes, this statement is absolutely apt.
