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

Answer:

  • C. 4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given function:</u>

  • y = 5x² – 20x + 24

<u>Convert the equation into vertex form:</u>

  • y = 5x² - 20x + 20 + 4 =
  •      5(x² - 4x + 4) + 4 =
  •      5(x - 2)² + 4

Vertex is (2, 4) at which the minimum y-value is 4

Correct choice is C

The Reno Raiders are voting on which player should be their captain for the upcoming season. Brody received 1/3 of the votes. Da
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
If we let x be the number of votes then, Brody got x/3 votes from his teammates. Below are the calculation for Darren and James.
                                Darren = 0.5(x/3) = x/6
                                James = 3(x/6) = x/2
From the answers, x/3, x/6, and x/2, the least is x/6 followed by x/3, and finally x/2. In order of the persons who garnered the least to greatest votes, the answer would be 
                                     Darren, Brody, and James

Jemina flips a disc of the type shown below: A disc with two layers is shown. The top layer is shaded in a darker shade of gray,
Yakvenalex [24]
The probability is just 1/2 that the disc will result with the white side landing up.

There are two sides to the disc. If they are equally likely to happen, then the chance of either side is 1/2. It does not matter which number the flip is.
