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:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
It's clear that the ratio of the weight and cost is 1:2.
So when you increase the factor by 4 , the cost increases by 8.
That's all I can say, and I'm sure my answer is correct.
Answer:
V = 115.5 cubic yards
Step-by-step explanation:
V (cone) = 1/3πr²h
just substitute given values to get:
r = 7/2 or 3.5
h = 9
V = π(3.5²)(9)/3
V = 115.5 cubic yards
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 2 cheeses, american and cheddar, and 4 meats, ham, bologna, turkey, and chicken. For every cheese, there are 4 options of meat. So then there are 2*4=8 sandwiches. If you are familliar with this concept, just multiply 2 and 4.
I’ll help you out, but what are the numbers in between? Like does it go boy 0, .3, .6, .9, to 1? Or is there a different pattern
