    Purple is considered a secondary color because it is created by mixing two primary colors, blue and red.

Therefore, purple fits the definition of a secondary color.

    Correct Answer
    A. Tertiary color
    Explanation
    Blue purple is an example of a tertiary color. Tertiary colors are created by mixing a primary color with a secondary color. In this case, blue (a primary color) is mixed with purple (a secondary color) to create blue purple, which falls into the category of tertiary colors.

    Which one of these is a correct mixture of purple and red?

    • Purple red

    • Green

    • Orange

    • Red purple

    Correct Answer
    A. Red purple
    Explanation
    The correct mixture of purple and red is red purple. This is because red and purple are both primary colors, and mixing them together creates a secondary color. In this case, red is the dominant color, while purple adds depth and richness to it. Therefore, red purple is the correct answer for a mixture of purple and red.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    Which one of these is the correct mixture of blue and green?

    • Green blue

    • Orange

    • Blue green

    • Purple

    Correct Answer
    A. Blue green
    Explanation
    Blue and green are primary colors, and when mixed together, they create a secondary color called cyan. "Blue green" is the correct mixture of blue and green, as it represents the combination of these two colors. Green blue, orange, and purple do not accurately represent the mixture of blue and green.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    Which one of these is the correct mixture of orange and red?

    • Yellow

    • Red orange

    • Orange red

    • Green

    Correct Answer
    A. Red orange
    Explanation
    Red orange is the correct mixture of orange and red because it combines the primary colors red and orange in equal proportions. This combination results in a vibrant and warm hue that is commonly associated with the color of ripe oranges. The other options, yellow, orange red, and green, do not accurately represent the mixture of orange and red.
