The book is asking if 14/20 is the same as 16/24. In other words, we want to see if 14/20 = 16/24 is a true equation or not.

Let's find out

14/20 = 16/24
14*24 = 20*16 ... cross multiply
336 = 320

Since the last equation shown above is NOT true, this makes the first equation NOT true.

The equation 14/20 = 16/24 is false so they did NOT make a proportional number of shots

An alternative route is to convert each fraction to decimal form
14/20 = 0.7
16/24 = 0.6666... (the 6's go on forever)
We get two different decimal values so this confirms our answer

1<br> 108°<br> 2<br> 4<br> 5<br> 7<br> 6<br> 8<br> Find the measure of angle 6.
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

6=72

Step-by-step explanation:

if 1 had the number 108 2 would be 72 because both have to equal 180 also say 3 is right under 1 also on the same line it would be also 72 and 4 also on the same line would be 72 .

5 on a different line would be 108 and 6 on the same line as number 5 would be 72 also 7 would be 108 and 8 would be 82

8 would be 72 not 82
