You can write any ratio as a fraction so 1/3:1/2 can be re-written as \frac{1/3}{1/2} so you need to simplify the complex fraction to find the ratio
\frac{1}{3} *  \frac{2}{1} - Invert the denominator and multiply to find the ratio
2/3 - the answer
2:3 - convert back to a ratio

Y=4x+8<br> Y=5x+1<br><br> I cant figure out this math problem
Crank
If solving for x:
Because both equations are equal to Y, you can set both equations equal to each other:
5x+1=4x+8
Then it's a matter of simplification (subtract the 4x to the left side and subtract the 1 over to the right):
x=7
If solving for Y:
Plug x=7 into either equation and solve:
Y=4(7)+8
Y=36

The dimensions of a cube are doubled. The volume of the enlarged cube is how many times the volume of the original cube?
Elza [17]
The volume is multiplied by 8. For example if you have a 1x1x1 cube the volume is 1. If you have a 2x2x2 cube the volume is 8. If you have a 4x4x4 the volume is 64.

From a train station, one train heads north, and another heads east. Some time later, the northbound train has traveled 12 miles
tigry1 [53]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  20 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The north and east distances form the legs of a right triangle. The straight-line distance between the trains is the hypotenuse of that triangle. The Pythagorean theorem can be used to find the length of the hypotenuse (d).

  d² = 12² +16²

  d² = 144 +256 = 400

  d = √400 = 20

The two trains are 20 miles apart.

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

You may recognize the given distances are in the ratio 3 : 4.  You may recall that side ratios of 3 : 4 : 5 make a right triangle. If so, you recognize that the straight-line distance is (4 miles)×5 = 20 miles. (3:4:5 right triangles show up often in algebra and geometry problems, so might be something you want to look for.)
