Answer
Part A: The right triangles are smiliar because If the lengths of the hypotenuse and a leg of a right triangle are proportional to the corresponding parts of another right triangle, then the triangles are similar.
Part B: 2z:2x or 2z/2x. You can write z/x as z:x. Then just multiply both sides by the same number to get an equivalent ratio. Let's multiply by 2. then the answer will be: 2z:2x or 2z/2x
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
0.79 is more than half, so rounds to 1.
Since we’ve been given a ratio, 3:8, we can convert that into a fraction and form an equation from it:
= 
The reason the numerator on the second fraction is 27/3 is because the team scored 27 points, not 27 baskets.
Simplify (Also replace the ? with an unknown variable):
= 
Cross multiply:
3*n = 9*8
Simplify:
3n = 72
Divide both sides by 3:
n = 24
The team had 33 three point tries, 9 successes, and 24 fails.
-T.B.
Draw the tape diagram: a long rectangle and divide it into 4 squares in a row.The whole rectangle represents 24 (as a whole number), you're dividing it into 4 parts because you want to know what is 1/4 of it.Now, to find the value of each square: 24:4 = 6.Put the number 6 in each square, and you have found your result.1/4 of 24 is 6.
