Answer:

BC = 107

Step-by-step explanation:

Point B is between A and C.

AB  = 3x-1

BC = 9x+8

AC = 139

We need to find BC for which we need to find x first.

<u>Finding 'x':</u>

We know that AB + BC = AC

*putting the values of AB, BC and AC*

3x-1+9x+8 = 139

12x+7=139

12x=132

x=132/12

x=11

Now, BC = 9x+8 = 9(11) +8

BC = 99+8

BC = 107

Depending on how flexibly you interpret "about 20 times larger" to mean, the answers are B and D.

Check the ratios of the larger number to the smaller number:

A: (2.01 x 10^7)/(4.25 x 10^6) = 2.01/4.25 x 10^1 = 20.1/4.25 = 4.729

B: (8.21 x 10^-3)/(4.13 x 10^-4) = 8.21/4.13 x 10^1 = 82.1/4.13 = 19.879

C: (4.91 x 10^6)/(5.09 x 10^3) = 4.91/5.09 x 10^3 = 4910/5.09 = 964.637

D: (5.97 x 10^4)/(3.12 x 10^3) = 5.97/3.12 x 10^1 = 59.7/3.12 = 19.135

Komok [63]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio means comparison, so we have to compare the two given examples, in this state empty and occupied.

one of the most important things to look for during ratios is what comes first. In this statement it says empty to occupied, not occupied than empty/.

if we know that empty is 34 and occupid is 16 than we know our answer is A

Please mark me branliest.

Have a great day!
