To get the shade of purple paint ordered by a client, you must mix red:blue:white in the ratio 3:5:8. How many fluid ounces of each color do you need to make 1 gallon of paint? (Remember, there are 128 fl. Oz. In a gallon.)

24 for red, 40 for blue and 64 for white.

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the shade of purple paint ordered by a client, the colours mixed are red, blue and white in the ratio 3:5:8.

Red= 3

Blue= 5

White= 8

Total = 3+5+8 = 16

Since 128fluid make a gallon, the number of fluids ounces for each colour will be:

Red = 3/16 × 128

= 24

Blue= 5/16 × 128

= 40

White = 8/16 × 128

= 64

The fluid ounces of colours needed are 24 for red, 40 for blue and 64 for white.

step-by-step explanation:

x > 1.3

step by step:

8.5−0.9x> 9.8−1.9x

step 1: simplify both sides of the inequality.

−0.9x+8.5> −1.9x+9.8

step 2: add 1.9x to both sides.

−0.9x+8.5+1.9x> −1.9x+9.8+1.9x

1x+8.5> 9.8

step 3: subtract 8.5 from both sides.

1x+8.5−8.5> 9.8−8.5

1x> 1.3

step 4: divide both sides by 1.

1x/1 > 1.3/1
