If you are given a part-to-whole ratio, can you write part-to-part ratio? Explain

stealth61 [152]

There are 2 types of ratios: Part-to-Wholes, and Part-to-Part ratios.

Part-to-part ratios show the relationship between the two groups.

Lets say theres 10 fruits in a fruit bowl.

If you have 3 apples, and 7 oranges, then the ratio is 3:7 as the part-to-part ratio. But the part-to-whole ratio would be either 3:10 ( for apples) or 7:10 (for oranges)

The equation 12x² + 4kx + 3 = 0 has real and equal roots, if

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

$k=\pm3$

Step-by-step explanation:

[...] if you can write the LHS as a perfect square, or if you can't spot a factorization of it right away, if and only if the discriminant $\Delta = b^2-4ac$ (or, if b is an even number, 1/4 of it) is zero.

<u>I see it! I see it!</u>

Stare at it for a while. First term is $3(2x)^2$ , third term is $3(1)^2$ , we are missing a double product, but we can play with k. For the LHS to be $3(2x\pm1)^2 = 3(4x^2\pm4x+1) = 12x^2\pm12x+3$ you just need $4k= \pm12 \rightarrow k=\pm3$ .

<u>I don't see it...</u>

Then number crunching it is. Set the discriminant to 0, solve for k

$\frac{\Delta}4 = 4k^2-12\cdot 3 =0 \rightarrow 4k^2=36 \\k^2 = 9 \rightarrow k=\pm3$
