To answer this item, we let x and y be the amounts (in mL) of the red and the brown dyes, respectively. The equations that would allow us to answer the question are,
x + y < 200
x ≤ 2y
The values of x and y in the inequalities are therefore 133.33 mL and 66.67 mL.
Answer:
The answer is the second one
(-4, 0)
There are many ways to do this.
One way could be 0.25x+7.00=27
Not necessarily. You could have done your multiplication wrong. Or in some cases, yes, you could have to use another skill. For example, you can't solve an optimization problem with addition, you need some calculus skills under your belt.
