Answer: 70 bottles of each

Step-by-step explanation:

let X be bottles of port and claret

X = 2/5

1/2 X = 1/5

180 + 30 = 210 = 3/5

210/3 = 70 = 1/5

70 x 2 = X = 140

2/5 = 140

1/5 = 70

Triss [41]

slope:  3; vertex:  (5, -8)

Step-by-step explanation:

It’s handy to remember that 5, 12, 13 is a pythagorean triple.

So, 13 is the radius.

Hope this helped!
