The correct answer would be -6
The probability of getting a piece of chocolate or a lollipop would be

. You can find this by first adding all of the values of the amount of chocolate, lollipops, and licorice. Then, add the value of the amount of chocolate and lollipops.
If all you want is a horizontal shrink then the answer you choose should not be in brackets. The brackets will alter the way the graph looks.
That means that A and B are not correct.
If you have a graph where a>1 the graph will expand.
If you have a graph where a<1 but greater than 0 the graph will shrink.
y = 1/2 x^3 + 4 is the answer you want.
Just to show you the graphs, I have enclosed a graph of the three choices.
y = x^3 + 4 is red
y = 2x^3 + 4 is blue
y = (1/2) x^3 + 4 is green. The green one is the one you want.
184 milliliters of the first brand and 46 milliliters of the second brand
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
Let x be the number of milliliters of the first brand in the final mixture
Since the chef requires 230 milliliters, 230 - x would be the milliliters of dressing of the second brand
Step 2:
The first brand contains 6% vinegar, and the second brand contains 11% vinegar
Hence we have,
x * 6/100 + (230-x) * 11/100 = 230 * 7/100
0.06 x + 25.3 - 0.11 x = 16.1
0.05x = 9.2 => x = 184
Hence the 184 milliliters of the first brand is to be used
Step 3 :
Quantity of the second brand to be used is 230 - x = 230 -184 = 46 milliliters.
