I guess the chef is making the mixture for the sheriff... Let <em>x</em> be the amount of dressing with 5% vinegar that is required, and <em>y</em> the amount of 15% vinegar dressing (both amounts in mL).
The sheriff wants 390 mL of the mixed dressing, so that
<em>x</em> + <em>y</em> = 390
<em>x</em> mL of the 5% dressing contains 0.05<em>x</em> mL of vinegar, while <em>y</em> mL of the 15% dressing contains 0.15<em>y</em> mL of vinegar. The resulting mixture should have a concentration of 9% vinegar, so that it contains 0.09 (390 mL) = 35.1 mL of vinegar. This means
0.05<em>x</em> + 0.15<em>y</em> = 35.1
Solve for <em>x</em> and <em>y</em> :
<em>y</em> = 390 - <em>x</em>
0.05<em>x</em> + 0.15 (390 - <em>x</em>) = 35.1
0.05<em>x</em> + 58.5 - 0.15<em>x</em> = 35.1
23.4 = 0.10<em>x</em>
<em>x</em> = 234
<em>y</em> = 156
Answer:

sinple this is on proportion
if you want crisscross the fraction
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Since only 30% of the population carries the gene, that would mean 70% doesn't carry it. Since you are using 10 digits for this experiment (0-9) this would mean that 0-2 would carry the gene (this equals 30%) and 3-9 would not (70%)
Answer: I’m sorry I cannot explain this any other way because I can not see the answers but —> If you a point that a line passes through, and its slope, this page will show you how to find the equation of the line. ✨
Step-by-step explanation: hope it help you later on!
x² + 10x = 26
x² + 10x + 25 = 26 + 25
x² + 5x + 5x + 25 = 51
x(x) + x(5) + 5(x) + 5(5) = 51
x(x + 5) + 5(x + 5) = 51
(x + 5)(x + 5) = 51
(x + 5)² = 51
x + 5 = ±√(51)
- 5 - 5
x = -5 ± √(51)
x = -5 + √(51) or x = -5 - √(51)
