Sarah will mix yellow paint and red paint in the ratio 2 parts yellow to 3 parts red to create a certain shade of orange paint. She needs 10 quarts of the orange paint. How much will Sarah spend for the paint she needs if the price of the yellow paint
is $5.50 per quart and the price of the red paint is $6.25 per quart?
A. $29.75
B. $58.00
C. $58.75
D. $59.50
E. $117.50

D. 59.50$

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets make an equation:

we know she is going to use 2 parts of yellow to 3 parts of red and she needs 10 quarts, therefore the equation would be:

2x+3x=10

x = 2

2 * 2 = 4( we need four quarts of yellow paint)

Price for yellow paint = 4 * 5.50 = 22

2 * 3 = 6(we need 6 quarts of red paint)

Price for red paint = 6 * 6.25  37.5

Add those prices: 37.5 + 22 = 59.50$

16.9 times 2.85
