A cosmetic company makes three bottles of scented lotion using the recipe shown. Each bottle holds a different amount of lotion.

seropon [69]

Answer:

Part 1) Bottle 1 (vanilla=1,almond=3,pineapple=4)

Part 2) Bottle 2 (vanilla=2,almond=6,pineapple=8)

Part 3) Bottle 3 (vanilla=1 1/2,almond=4 1/2,pineapple=6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the amount of vanilla sent

y ----> amount of almond sent

z ----> the amount of pineapple sent

we know that

$x:y:z=\frac{1}{8}:\frac{3}{8}:\frac{1}{2}$

$\frac{x}{y}=\frac{1}{8}:\frac{3}{8}$

$\frac{x}{y}=\frac{1}{3}$

$x=\frac{y}{3}$ -----> equation A

$\frac{x}{z}=\frac{1}{8}:\frac{1}{2}$

$\frac{x}{z}=\frac{1}{4}$

$x=\frac{1}{4}z$ -----> equation B

$\frac{y}{z}=\frac{3}{8}:\frac{1}{2}$

$\frac{y}{z}=\frac{3}{4}$

$y=\frac{3}{4}z$ -----> equation C

Part 1) Bottle 1

vanilla=?

almond=?

pineapple=4

we have

$z=4$

Find the value of x

substitute the value of z in equation B

$x=\frac{1}{4}(4)$

$x=1$

Find the value of y

substitute the value of z in equation C

$y=\frac{3}{4}(4)$

$y=3$

therefore

Bottle 1

vanilla=1

almond=3

pineapple=4

Part 2) Bottle 2

vanilla=?

almond=6

pineapple=?

we have

$y=6$

Find the value of x

substitute the value of y in equation A

$x=\frac{6}{3}=2$

Find the value of z

substitute the value of x in equation B

$2=\frac{1}{4}z$

solve for z

$z=8$

therefore

Bottle 2

vanilla=2

almond=6

pineapple=8

Part 3) Bottle 3

vanilla=1 1/2

almond=?

pineapple=?

we have

$x=1\frac{1}{2}$

convert to an improper fraction

$x=1\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1*2+1}{2}=\frac{3}{2}$

Find the value of y

substitute the value of x in equation A

$\frac{3}{2}=\frac{y}{3}$

$y=\frac{9}{2}$

convert to mixed number

$y=\frac{9}{2}=\frac{8}{2}+\frac{1}{2}=4\frac{1}{2}$

Find the value of z

substitute the value of x in equation B

$\frac{3}{2}=\frac{1}{4}z$

$z=6$

therefore

Bottle 3

vanilla=1 1/2

almond=4 1/2

pineapple=6

HELP ASAP Use the data below

beks73 [17]

Answer:

Part A:

-Minimum: 10

-Q1: 17.5

-Median: 30

-Q3: 42.5

-Maximum: 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Part B: IQR= 25

This shows that the data varies for 25 different numbers. That HALF of the data is between 25 numbers.

Part C: Using a box-and-whisker plot you can interpret the different values. Minimum is the first dot (10), connected to the first line (Q1 which is 17.5), connected by a box to the median (30), connected by a box to the third line (Q3 which is 42.5), connected to the last dot which is the maximum (50). And IQR is Q3-Q1, so 42.5-17.5 which is 25.
