Answer:
y= (3/2)x-3
Step-by-step explanation:
We need two points to find the equation of a line. Let's take (2,0) and (4, 3).
In the equation y=mx+b, m represents the slope. To find the slope, we can calculate the change in y/change in x. For (2,0) and (4,3), the change in y is 3-0=3 and the change in x is 4-2=2. Therefore, our slope is 3/2.
Then, in the equation y=mx+b, we can plug 3/2 in for m to get y = (3/2)x+b. To find b, we can plug one point in, such as (2.0), to get 0=(3/2)(2) + b, 0=3+b, and b=-3, making our equation
y= (3/2)x-3

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.
