Melanie uses 8.1 pints of blue paint and white paint to paint her bedroom walls. 2/5 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?

4.86

Step-by-step explanation:

Melanie uses 8.1 pints of blue paint and white paint for her bedroom

2/5 of this amount is blue paint

Therefore the amount of white paint can be calculated as follows

= 2/5

= 0.4×100

= 40%

60/100 × 8.1

= 0.6 × 8.1

= 4.86

Hence 4.86 pints of white paint will be used to paint the bedroom

there are lots of ways.   pick's theorem tells us if the vertices are lattice points the area a is

a = b/2 + i - 1

where b is the number of boundary lattice points and i is the number of interior lattice points.

in the figure i count b=16, i=50 so

a = 8 + 50 - 1 = 57

let's try the shoelace formula.   the area is half the sum of the cross products of the sides.  

a(-2,6)   -2(2)-6(-5) = 26

b(-5,2)   -5(-3) - 2(-2) = 19

c(-2,-3) -2(-3) - (-3)(4) = 18

d(4,-3)   4(3) - (-3)(5) = 27

e(5,3)   5(3) - 3(1) = 12

f(1,3)     1(6) - 3(-2) = 12

a(-2,6)

each of the cross products is twice the area of the triangle with the associated side and one vertex the origin. so the area of abo=26/2=13.

area = (1/2) (26 + 19 +   18 + 27 + 12 + 12) = 57

that checks!

d) 30 units^2

area of rectangle = l × b

we know,

length = 10 unit

breadth = 3 unit

applying the formula,

= l × b

= 10 × 3

= 30 unit^2
