Jenna mixed two shades of purple paint. For Purple People Eater, she used 3 pints of red paint for every 5 pints of blue paint.
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

\frac{12}{35}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

→ For Purple People Eater, she used 3 pints of red paint for every 5 pints of blue paint.

i.e, The ratio of red paint to blue paint is 3:5

→ For Purple Majesty, she used a blue to red paint ratio of 7 to 4.

i.e, The ratio of red paint to blue paint is 4:7

To find :

1) Compare the ratios of red paint to blue paint.

\frac{3}{5}\times \frac{4}{7}=\frac{12}{35}

2) The ratio for Purple People Eater can be expressed in fraction form as :

=\frac{3}{5}

3) The ratio for Purple Majesty can be expressed in fraction form as :

=\frac{7}{4}

4) To compare these fractions, rewrite them with a common denominator

For common denominator

Multiply numerator and denominator by 4 in \frac{3}{5}

\Rightarrow\frac{3\times 4}{5\times4}=\frac{12}{20}

Multiply numerator and denominator by 5 in \frac{7}{4}

\Rightarrow\frac{7\times 5}{5\times4}=\frac{35}{20}

Common denominator is 20

If x and y are two positive real numbers such that x 2 +4y 2 =17 and xy =2, then find the value of x- 2y. a. 3 b. 4 c. 8 d. 9
Dafna11 [192]

Answer: The value of x- 2y is a. \pm 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  x and y are two positive real numbers such that x^2+4y^2=17   and xy= 2 .

Consider (x-2y)^2=x^2-2(x)(2y)+(2y)^2\ \ \ [(a+b)^2=(a^2-2ab+b^2)]

=x^2-4xy+4y^2

=x^2+4y^2-4(xy)

Put  x^2+4y^2=17   and xy= 2 , we get

(x-2y)^2=17-4(2)=17-8=9

\Rightarrow\ (x-2y)^2=9

Taking square root on both sides , we get'

x-2y= \pm3

Hence, the value of x- 2y is a. \pm 3.
