Brooke uses 8.6 pints of blue paint and white paint to paint her bedroom walls. 3/5 of this amount is blue paint, and the rest is white paint. How many pints of white paint did she use to paint her bedroom walls?

3 11/25 pints of white paint

Step-by-step explanation:

8 6/10 is the same as 43/5

if 3/5 of the total pints are blue then 2/5 are white

so multiply 43/5 x 2/5 to get 86/25 which equals 3 11/25

c = 0.429t

step-by-step explanation:

the constant rate at which carlos harvests cassava is 35 minutes per 15 cassavas 15/35 = 0.429 cassava per minute

therefore, an equation that models the number of cassava (c) that harvest carlos in a time (t) is the following:

where t is the time in minutes.

this means that when 35 minutes have elapsed 15 cassava have been harvested, at 70 minutes 30 cassava have been harvested and so on.
