Answer:
1.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
- 273 mL of 5%
- 117 mL of 15%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let q represent the quantity of 15% dressing used. Then the amount of 5% dressing is (390 -q). The amount of vinegar in the mix is ...
0.15q + 0.05(390 -q) = 0.08(390)
0.10q = 31.2 -19.5 = 11.7 . . . . . . subtract 0.05(390) and simplify
q = 117 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 10
390-q = 273
The chef should use 273 mL of the first brand (5% vinegar) and 117 mL of the second brand (15% vinegar).

<em>Additional comment</em>
You may have noticed that the value of q is (0.08 -0.05)/(0.10 -0.05)×390. The fraction of the mix that is the highest contributor is the ratio of the difference between the mix value and least contributor, divided by the difference between the contributors: (8-5)/(15-5) = 3/10, the fraction that is 15% vinegar. This is the generic solution to mixture problems.
3/4 can be converted to eighths by multiplying by 2/2 to get 6/8. 7/8 - 6/8 = 1/8 So 1/8 of a cup is for the topping.
The 99 percent confidence interval for the true mean length of the bolt is CI = (2.8712, 3.1288)
<h3>How to find the confidence interval?</h3>
Confidence Interval is used to tell us the degree of certainty or uncertainty that is existent in a sampling method.
The general formula for confidence interval is;
CI = x' ± z(s/√n)
where;
x' is sample mean
z is z-score at confidence level
s is sample standard deviation
n is sample size
We are given;
sample size; n = 36
Sample mean; x' = 3 inches
standard deviation; s = 0.3 inches
confidence level = 99%
z at 99% CL = 2.576
Thus;
CI = 3 ± 2.576(0.3/√36)
CI = 3 ± 0.1288
CI = (2.8712, 3.1288)
