Hey there! :)

Answer:

C. 7 : 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we need to convert each of the measurements given to inches:

2 ft 4 in = 28 inches.

2 yard = 6 feet = 72 inches.

Therefore, expressing this as a ratio would give us:

28 : 72

Simplify by reducing by a factor of 4:

7 : 18. This is the ratio in simplest form.

Answer:

6x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-5y = 12

2x+5y = -3

Add the equations together

4x-5y = 12

2x+5y = -3

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

6x + 0y = 9

6x = 9

Given line LM and point R that lies on line LM, identify the following ratios given that point R lies a/b of the way along line

gavmur [86]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

If point R lies $\frac{a}{b}$ of the way along line LM, closer to L than M, then

$LR=ax\\ \\LM=bx$

Find all needed ratios:

1. $\dfrac{LR}{LM}=\dfrac{ax}{bx}=\dfrac{a}{b}$

2. By segment addition postulate,

$LR+RM=LM\\ \\RM=bx-ax=(b-a)x,$

$\dfrac{RM}{LM}=\dfrac{(b-a)x}{ax}=\dfrac{b-a}{a}$

3. $RL=LR=ax\\ \\RM=(b-a)x,$

then

$\dfrac{RL}{RM}=\dfrac{ax}{(b-a)x}=\dfrac{a}{b-a}$

In two or more complete sentences, describe the difference between an infinite series and a finite series. Part 2.] In two or mo

allochka39001 [22]

An infinite series contains an infinite amount if values within a set S({}. A finite series contains a certain am0unt of values (for example, the numbers from 1 to 10)

The first one is a finite set since it has a known amount of values. This can be seen as a tangible set. The second set has an unknown end. This makes it intangible.
