<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.

Use the box method to distribute and simplify (-5x-2)(-2x^2+6x).

Mkey [24]

Answer:

$10x^{3} - 26x^{2} - 12x$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Use the FOIL method: (a+b)(c+d)=ac+ad+bc+bd.

$10x^{3} - 30x^{2} + 4x^{2} -12x$

2) Collect like terms.

$10x^{3} + (-30x^{2} +4x^{2} )-12x$

3) Simplify.

$10x^{3} - 26x^{2} -12x$

Therefor, the answer is, 10x^3 - 26x^2 - 12x.

Please help, see attachment for equation!

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is the last option

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic equation

2 = - x + x² - 4

Order the equation from the highest power to the lowest power. Do not consider 2 because it is not consider in the options given.

x² - x - 4 = 0

Identify a, b and c

(1) x² -(1) x - 4 = 0

a = 1 b = -1 c = - 6

Substitution

$\frac{-(-1) +- \sqrt{(-1)^{2} - 4(1)((-4)}}{2(1)}$

The distance from Fort Worth to Fresno is 1,530 miles. If a cyclist maintains an average speed of 17 miles per hour, how many ho

Tju [1.3M]

The time take for the cyclist to travel from Fort Worth to Fresno is $90 \ hours$

Explanation:

It is given that the distance from Fort Worth to Fresno is 1,530 miles.

The average speed of the cyclist is 17 miles per hour.

The time travelled by the cyclist can be determined using the formula,

$Distance=Speed \times Time$

Substituting the value of distance and speed, we get,

$1530=17\times Time$

Dividing both sides by 17, we get,

$90 =Time$

Thus, the time take for the cyclist to travel from Fort Worth to Fresno is $90 \ hours$
