we know that

To find the ratio of cleaner to water

Divide the total cups of cleaner by the total cups of water

In this problem we have

total cups of cleaner------> 1\frac{1}{2}

convert to an improper fraction

1\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1*2+1}{2}= \frac{3}{2}

total cups of water------> 12

Find the ratio

\frac{(3/2)}{12}= \frac{3}{24}= \frac{1}{8}

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

\frac{1}{8}

Which of these cannot represent the lengths of the sides of a right triangle?
Sholpan [36]
<h3>Answer: Choice D. 8m, 9m, 10m</h3>

==================================

Explanation:

If a = 8 and b = 9 are the two legs of a triangle and c = 10 is the hypotenuse, then

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

8^2 + 9^2 = 10^2

64 + 81 = 100

145 = 100

We get a false equation as 145 and 100 are two different values. So the original equation is false when (a,b,c) = (8,9,10)

By the converse of the pythagorean theorem, we have proven that this particular triangle is not a right triangle

-------------

Contrast this with something like choice A where we have a = 3, b = 4, c = 5 leading to

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

3^2 + 4^2 = 5^2

9 + 16 = 25

25 = 25

we get a true equation so a triangle with sides 3,4,5 is a right triangle. Choices B and C follow a similar path.
