Use a number line if you need 4/10 - 6/10 = -2/10a simpler way is to do the opposite 6/10 - 4/10 = 2/10 then the answer would be the opposite as well. so, -2/10

Answer:
A side of the triangle is bisected
Step-by-step explanation:
The median of a triangle connects a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side. That is, it bisects the side it meets:
A side of the triangle is bisected
_____
<em>Comment on other choices</em>
A median will be an angle bisector only if the triangle is isosceles. Likewise, it will only be perpendicular to the side if the triangle is isosceles.
There are several points called "center" of a triangle, including the centroid (on the median), the incenter, the circumcenter, and the orthocenter.
First brand = A, second brand = B.
A + B = 249ml
9% A + 14% B = 13% 249ml
B = 249ml - A
9% A + 14% (249ml - A) = 13% 249ml
9A + 14 (249ml - A) = 13 * 249ml
9A + 3486ml - 14A = 3237ml
5A = 249ml
A = 49,8ml
<span>B = 249ml - A = 199,2ml
</span>
Answer: He should use 49,8ml of first brand and 199,2ml of second brand.
Also note: <span>That's an </span>approximation,<span> because </span>the volumes are not strictly additive<span>. For example: mixing 50ml pure ethanol with 50ml water will give you about 95ml of mixture. To get an accurate answer, you'd have to </span>measure<span> the volume of the final mixture and then divide your total alcohol content by </span>that<span>.</span>
