Answer:

The ratio is 3/2 or 3:2

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To find out the ratio of letter-size paper to legal-size paper, divide the percentage of letter-size paper by the percentage of legal-size paper

so

\frac{60}{40}

Simplify

\frac{60}{40}=\frac{6}{4}=\frac{3}{2}

therefore

The ratio is 3/2 or 3:2

Answer:

<em>The ratio of letter-size paper to legal-size paper is 3/2</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Ratio </u>

Suppose some quantity has a value X respect to another quantity of value Y, we say that the ratio between them is

\displaystyle r=\frac{X}{Y}

That magnitude of the ratio can be greater than one, when X>Y, less than one if X<Y or 1 if they are equal

We are told that a copier contains 60% letter-size paper and 40% legal-size paper. The proportion or ratio of letter-size paper to legal-size paper is

\displaystyle r=\frac{60}{40}

Simplifying

\displaystyle r=\frac{3}{2}

Thus the ratio of letter-size paper to legal-size paper is 3/2

Answer:

21. B. Graph Z

23. A. neither function nor relation

24. D. relation only

Step-by-step explanation:

21. Graph Z is the only graph which does not pass the vertical line test

23. The graph does not pass the vertical line test, AND it is not merely given x and y points like a relation. It is graphed as a squiggly line with no given x and y points, therefore you could not make a relation from it either.

24. There is an x value of -4 twice, meaning the set does not pass the vertical line test, HOWEVER, it is a given collection of x and y values, making it a relation.

I would appreciate brainliest, have an amazing day

Answer:

\sqrt[]{\frac{x+8}{4}}-3

Step-by-step explanation:

g(x)=4(x+3)^2-8

First rewrite g(x) as y

y=4(x+3)^2-8

Now swap y and x

x=4(y+3)^2-8

Add 8 on both sides.

x+8=4(y+3)^2-8+8

x+8=4(y+3)^2

Divide by 4.

\frac{x+8}{4} =\frac{4(y+3)^2}{4}

\frac{x+8}{4}=(y+3)^2

Extract the square root on both sides.

\sqrt[]{\frac{x+8}{4}}=\sqrt[]{(y+3)^2}

\sqrt[]{\frac{x+8}{4}}=y+3

Subtract 3 on both sides.

\sqrt[]{\frac{x+8}{4}}-3=y+3-3

\sqrt[]{\frac{x+8}{4}}-3=y

What is the equation, in point-slope form, for a line that goes through (8, −4) and has a slope of −5/6 ?
horrorfan [7]

Point-slope form, y-y1 = m(x-x1)

(y-(-4)) = -5/6 (x-8)

y+4 = -5x/6+20/3

y = -5x/6+20/3 - 4

y = -5x/6 + 8/3
