Gets graph shows the number of gallons of white paint that were mixed with gallons of red paint in various different ratios: graph titled mixing paint, horizontal axis labeled red paint in gallons, and vertical axis labeled white paint in gallons is shown. the horizontal scale is 0 to 40 in increments of 5. the vertical scale is 0 to 200 in increments of 25. the plotted points are 5, 25 and 10, 50 and 15, 75. the number of gallons of white paint mixed with 1 gallon of red paint is numerical answers expected! answer for blank 1:

The number of gallons of white paint mixed with 1 gallon of red paint is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of gallons of red paint

y ----> the number of gallons of white paint

we have the ordered pairs

(5,25), (10,50) and (15,75)

Remember that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form or

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin

In this problem we have a proportional relationship between the variables x and y

The ratio of the number of gallons of white paint mixed with 1 gallon of red paint is equal to the constant of proportionality k or slope of the linear equation

For (5,25) ----->

For (10,50) ----->

For (15,75) ----->

therefore

The number of gallons of white paint mixed with 1 gallon of red paint is
