The missing values in the table can be filled in with 25 mL red and 5 mL yellow, as well as 8 mL red and 3 mL yellow, maintaining the proportional relationship.
Let's go through the calculations step by step.
First, let's find the constant ratio using the given pairs of red and yellow paint values:
For the pair (10.5 mL red, 28 mL yellow):
Constant ratio = 10.5 / 28 ≈ 0.375
Now, we will use this constant ratio to find the missing values:
For the missing pair (? mL red, ? mL yellow), where the red amount is unknown:
? = 0.375 * ? (constant ratio)
To find the corresponding yellow amount, we use the constant ratio:
? = 0.375 * ? / 0.375 (cancelling out the constant ratio)
This results in ? = ?, indicating that any pair with the same constant ratio will work. Therefore, 25 mL red and 5 mL yellow can be used.
Similarly, for the second missing pair (? mL red, ? mL yellow), where the red amount is unknown:
? = 0.375 * ? (constant ratio)
To find the corresponding yellow amount, we use the constant ratio:
? = 0.375 * ? / 0.375 (cancelling out the constant ratio)
This also results in ? = ?, indicating that any pair with the same constant ratio will work. Therefore, 8 mL red and 3 mL yellow can be used.
The question probable may be:
The table shows a proportional relationship between the milliliters (ML) of red paint and milliliters of yellow paint to make a certain shade of orange. A row of values is missing in the table. What would be the missing values in the table?
