Applying the tangent ratio, the distance from A to C across the gorge, is: 60.6 ft.

<h3>What is Tangent Ratio?</h3>

The tangent ratio for solving a right triangle is given as, tan ∅ = opposite/adjacent.

Given the following:

∅ = 25°
Adjacent length = 130 ft
Opposite length = AC

Apply the tangent ratio:

tan 25 = AC/130

AC = (130)(tan 25)

AC = 60.6 ft

nataly862011 [7]

The numbers for the first eight beads that are white are; 1, 5, 9, 13, 17, 21, 25, 29

<h3>Arithmetic Sequence</h3>

We are told that she strings in this order;

1 white
3 blue
1 white bead

Now, after the first white bead, the next white bead is the 5th bead in total.

This means the difference in interval between white beads is; 5 - 1 = 4 beads

Thus, the numbers for the first eight beads that are white are;

1, (1 + 4), (1 + 4 + 4), (1 + 4 + 4 + 4).....

Thus, we have;

1, 5, 9, 13, 17, 21, 25, 29

Which situation represents a proportional relationship?

Natalka [10]

Answer:

B) Jack biked 5 miles in 25 minutes and 8 miles in 40 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $y=kx$

The ratio between the two variables is a constant called constant of proportionality k

$k=y/x$

<u><em>Verify each case</em></u>

A) Julie sold 4 necklaces for $12 and 9 necklaces for $25.

$\frac{4}{12}=\frac{9}{25}$

Multiply in cross

$4(25)=9(12)\\100\neq108$

Is not true

therefore

The situation not represent a proportional relationship

B) Jack biked 5 miles in 25 minutes and 8 miles in 40 minutes.

$\frac{5}{25}=\frac{8}{40}$

Multiply in cross

$5(40)=8(25)\\200=200$

Is true

therefore

The situation represent a proportional relationship

C) Larry packed 24 apples in 6 boxes and 46 apples in 9 boxes

$\frac{24}{6}=\frac{46}{9}$

Multiply in cross

$24(9)=46(6)\\216\neq276$

Is not true

therefore

The situation not represent a proportional relationship

D) Allie put 14 pieces of candy in 2 bags and 30 pieces of candy in 4 bags

$\frac{14}{2}=\frac{30}{4}$

Multiply in cross

$14(4)=30(2)\\56\neq60$

Is not true

therefore

The situation not represent a proportional relationship
