The correct answer is option B which is mixture B will have the highest ratio of blue paint.

<h3>What is a ratio?</h3>

In mathematics, ratios are used to determine the relationship between two numbers it indicates how many times is one number to another number.

<h3 />

The given ratios are:-

Mixture A = \dfrac{5}{12} = 0.41

Mixture B = \dfrac{6}{6}= 1

Mixture C = \dfrac{4}{12}= 0.33

Mixture B = \dfrac{5}{6}=0.83

Here the ratio of mixture B is the highest among all the options available.

Therefore the correct answer is option B which is mixture B will have the highest ratio of blue paint.

Given points A(-1, -2) and B(2, 4) where AP: BP=1:2, find the locus of point P.​
koban [17]

Answer:

x^2 + 4x + y^2 +8y  =  0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A = (-1,-2)

B = (2,4)

AP:BP = 1 : 2

Required

The locus of P

AP:BP = 1 : 2

Express as fraction

\frac{AP}{BP} = \frac{1}{2}

Cross multiply

2AP = BP

Calculate AP and BP using the following distance formula:

d = \sqrt{(x - x_1)^2 + (y - y_1)^2}

So, we have:

2 * \sqrt{(x - -1)^2 + (y - -2)^2} = \sqrt{(x - 2)^2 + (y - 4)^2}

2 * \sqrt{(x +1)^2 + (y +2)^2} = \sqrt{(x - 2)^2 + (y - 4)^2}

Take square of both sides

4 * [(x +1)^2 + (y +2)^2] = (x - 2)^2 + (y - 4)^2

Evaluate all squares

4 * [x^2 + 2x + 1 + y^2 +4y + 4] = x^2 - 4x + 4 + y^2 - 8y + 16

Collect and evaluate like terms

4 * [x^2 + 2x + y^2 +4y + 5] = x^2 - 4x + y^2 - 8y + 20

Open brackets

4x^2 + 8x + 4y^2 +16y + 20 = x^2 - 4x + y^2 - 8y + 20

Collect like terms

4x^2 - x^2 + 8x + 4x + 4y^2 -y^2 +16y + 8y  + 20 - 20 =  0

3x^2 + 12x + 3y^2 +24y  =  0

Divide through by 3

x^2 + 4x + y^2 +8y  =  0

What is the total amount and the amount of interest earned on $6,500 at 6% for 25 years?
Deffense [45]
Here's the equation for one year:
0.06(6500) + 6500
But because it is 25 years:
25(0.06(6500)) + 6500
1.5(6500) + 6500
We can make it simpler:
2.5(6500)
The total amount is $16350
