7/9 = 42/54...when 42/54 reduces, it becomes 7/9...so this is proportional because proportions are nothing but equivalent fractions.

u could also check it this way...
12/21 = 15/24
cross multiply
(21)(15) = (12)(24)
315 = 288.....these do not equal and are therefore, not proportionate

440/4 = 300/3
110 = 100....not equal, so not proportionate

120/5 = 88/4
24 = 22.....not proportionate

66/82 = 99/123
0.804 = 0.804.......these are proportional

68/172 = 43/123
0.395 = 0.349......nope, not proportional

Select the locations on the number line to plot the points 9/2 and −7/2 .

myrzilka [38]

To plot these points on the number line, you should label the long lines on the number line as such starting from the left (-5-already there, -4,-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3,4,5-already there).

Now take each number and convert the improper fraction into a mixed number. 9/2 = 4 1/2 and -7/2 = -3 1/2.

4 1/2 would plotted on the line exactly in between the 4 and 5.

-3 1/2 would be plotted on the line exactly halfway between -3 and -4.

You will draw a dot to show each of these positions on a number line.

Solve with completing the square method: 6x²-7x+2=0 and ax²+bx+c=0

Norma-Jean [14]

$6x ^2-7x+2=0\\ \\ a=6 , \ b = -7 , \ c=2 \\ \\\Delta = b^{2}-4ac = (-7)^{2}-4*6*2=49-48=1 \\ \\x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta }}{2a} =\frac{7-\sqrt{1}}{2*6}=\frac{7-1}{12} =\frac{6}{12}= \frac{1}{ 2}\\ \\x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta }}{2a} =\frac{7+\sqrt{1}}{2*6}=\frac{7+1}{12} =\frac{8}{12}= \frac{2}{ 3}$
