In an experiment, two liquids with different viscosities (thickness) are allowed to drip a drop at a time into a flask, where they are mixed. The apparatus is set up such that the first liquid drips 3 v ^3 − 2 v + 20 milliliters per minute and the second liquid drips v + 2 milliliters per minute, where v is the average viscosity of the final mixture. Which equation shows how many milliliters of the first liquid are mixed for every milliliter of the second liquid?

A:  3 v  ^2 − 6 v − 10



B: 3 v  ^2 − 8  v − 36



C: 3 v ^2 − 6 v + 10



D: 3v  ^2 − 8 v + 10
im so confused aha

dumbcow · Answer

its a ratio....divide the rates

$$\frac{3v^3 -2v +20}{v+2} = 3v^2-6v+10$$
