Simply simplify the ratios/fractions into their simplest fraction form and divide the numerator by the denominator. If they are equal, they are in fact proportions, if not, they aren't
<span>If this is an isosceles triangle, then it has two 45 degree angles corresponding to two legs of equal length. Orient the base of this triangle so that it's horizontal, and represent its length by b. Let h represent the height of the triangle. Then the area of this right triangle is 50 square inches = (1/2)(b)(h), or A = (b/2)h = 50 in^2.
Due to the 45 degree angles, the height of this triangle is equal to half the base, or h = b/2. Thus, (b/2)h = 50 becomes (b/2)(b/2) = 50, or b^2=200. Thus, b = 10sqrt(2), and h=(1/2)(10 sqrt(2)), or h = 5sqrt(2).
The length of one of the legs is the sqrt of [5sqrt(2)]^2+[5sqrt(2)]^2, or
sqrt(25(2)+25(2)) = sqrt(100) = 10.

Answer:
T + V = 50
2T + (3/2) * V = 90
2T + 1.5V = 90
T = 50 * 1.5 - 90 * 1 / 1 * 1.5 - 2*1 = 30
V = 1 * 90 - 2 * 50 / 1 * 1.5 - 2 * 1 = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
T = 30
V = 20
Answer:
15/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let "d" be the total distance, that is, the distance for swimming (s), running (r) and going by bike (b).
d = s + r + b [1]
1/24 of the total distance is covered by swimming.
s = 1/24 d [2]
1/3 of the distance is covered by running.
r = 1/3 d [3]
If we replace [2] and [3] in [1], we get
d = 1/24 d + 1/3 d + b
b = d - 1/24 d - 1/3 d
b = 24/24 d - 1/24 d - 8/24 d
b = 15/24 d = 5/8 d
The ratio of the distance covered by bike to the distance covered by running is:
b/r = (5/8 d)/(1/3 d) = 15/8
