Answer 1

Answer:

F.

Explanation:

The number of quarts of cream Type A is x.

Type A cream has 18% butterfat, so the amount butterfat will be 0.18x

For type B, we know that the total amount of cream will be 90, so if cream type A is x, cream type B is 90 - x.

Type B crem has 24% butterfat, so teh amount in the mixture will be 0.24(90-x)

Then, the mixture will be 90 quarts of crean that is 22% butterfat, so the amount in the mixture will be 0.22(90)

Therefore, the table that represent this data is table F.

So, the answer is F.
