Answer:
D. Batch 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
The batch should have the same proportion of blue to white to yellow.
In Batch 1, there are two parts of blue, 1.5 parts of white, and 1 part of yellow.
In Batch 5, there are four parts of blue, 3 parts of white, and 2 parts of yellow.
4 / 2 = 2
3 / 2 = 1.5
2 / 2 = 1
Since the proportions are equal to those found in Batch 1, D. Batch 5 will create the same colors as the first batch.
Hope this helps!
With the facts you got here, you can make the following equation:
x*(x+2)=24
x^2+2x=24
x^2+2x-24=0
Then you can use the following formula (which you might have seen before):
x = (-b +/- sqrt(b^2-4ac))/2a
where
ax^2+bx+c=0
(-2 +/- sqrt(4+96))/2
(-2 +/- 10)/2
x_1 = 4
x_2 = -6

Travel distance by light in 60 seconds =
3*10^5 * 60
180 * 10^5
1.8 * 10^7 kms
