Answer:

  • 238 gallons 7%
  • 119 gallons 1%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h represent the number of gallons of high butterfat content milk. Then 357-h will be the number of gallons of 1% milk. The total amount of butterfat in the mix is ...

  0.07h +0.01(357 -h) = 0.05(357)

  0.06h = 14.28 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 3.57, collect terms

  h = 238 . . . . . . . . . .  divide by 0.06

  357-h = 357 -238 = 119

238 gallons of 7% and 119 gallons of 1% are needed.

What is a vertex . Please explain Thanks..
drek231 [11]

Step-by-step explanation: In geometry, a vertex is where two rays share a common endpoint or where they interest each other.

The rays are called the sides of the angle and

common endpoint is called the vertex.

The vertex is very important when naming angles because

the vertex is always at the center when naming the angle.

Below is an example of two rays that share a

common endpoint which is called the vertex.

Which is the rate of change for the interval between 2 and 6 on the x-axis?
nadezda [96]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

I think you misses attaching the photo, so please have a look at my photo for your better understanding.

We know the formula for rate of change of the  parabola line:

\frac{f(b)- f(a)}{b-a}

Given here:

a= 2 => f(a) = 2

b=6 => f(b) = 2

Substitute all the values into the function, we have:

\frac{14-2}{6-2} = 3

So the rate of change is 3
