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.
Answer:
C. PR and SQ have the same midpoing
Step-by-step explanation:
Area = length X width
A = L(12 ft) x W(9 ft) but since the cost of carpet is given in square yards not square feet we need to convert
A = (12 ft)(1 yd/3 ft) x (9 ft)(1 yd/3 ft) 1 yard = 3 feet so 1 foot = 1/3 yard
A = 4 yd x 3 yd divide by 3 ft which cancels the original ft and leaves yd's
A = 12 square yards
Cost = Area x price per yard
Cost = 12 sq yd X $35.00/ sq yd multiply and the sq yd's cancel leaving just cost in dollars
Cost = $420.00
