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.
Step-by-step explanation:
39500 x 103 = 4,068,500
in scientific notation, that ia 4.0685 x 10⁶
Ur answer is c.0.10 because 10 is less than all the other answer choices
<span> However 4(4x-3) -6x can be replaced by 16x-12 -6x using the distributive law then we may combine like terms to obtain 10x -12. RESPONSE TO UPDATE .. Since you provided the choices in your update, the choices equivalent to 10x -12 are A 12x -12 - 2x and C. 4x + 2(3x-6)</span>
A is the correct answer to it.
The slope of it is 5/1 and if you start at -3 as that is your Y-intercept, the values add up
