Answer:
4. No
5. No
6. No
7. No
8. No
9a. 2 : 3 = 8 : 12 Extremes: 2, 12. Means: 3, 8
9b. 90 : 36 = 135 : 54 Extremes: 90, 54. Means: 36, 135
Step-by-step explanation:
4. 12 : 25 and 6 : 13 are NOT equal. NO.
5. 64 : 120 = 8 : 15 and 60 : 100 = 3 : 5. NOT equal. NO
6. 37 : 115 and 296 : 966 = 148 : 483. NOT equal. NO
7. 300 : 200 = 3 : 2 and 6 : 5 are NOT equal. NO.
8. 8 : 10 = 4 : 5 and 11 : 14 are NOT equal. NO.
9a. 2 : 3 = 8 : 12 Extremes: 2, 12. Means: 3, 8
9b. 90 : 36 = 135 : 54 Extremes: 90, 54. Means: 36, 1135
Let x=the first number
Then x+7=second number
And 4(x+7)+2=third number (2 more than 4 times the second)
Now we are told that:
x+(x+7)+(4(x+7)+2)=85 get rid of parentheses
x+x+7+4x+28+2=85 simplify
6x+37=85 subtract 37 from each side
6x+37-37=85-37
6x=48
x=8---first number
x+7=8+7=15 second number
4(x+7)+2=4*15+2=62 third number
CK
8+15+62=85
85=85
