Answer: Tracking is the practice of putting students into specific curriculum groups based on their test scores and other factors.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If two ratios make a proportion then it can be shown as:
Let's verify the answer choices with this method
A. 1/4 and 5/25
- 1*25 = 4*5
- 25 = 20, incorrect, not a proportion
B. 1/4 and 7/24
- 1*24 = 4*7
- 24 = 28, incorrect, not a proportion
C. 1/4 and 10/48
- 1*48 = 4*10
- 48 = 40, incorrect, not a proportion
D. 1/4 and 9/36
- 1*36 = 4*9
- 36 = 36, correct, this is a proportion
Let the shortest side be x. Then the other two sides will be x+1 and x+2.
Perimeter = P = sum of the lengths of all three sides = x + (x+1) + (x+2)
This perimeter = 4x -1 (1 less than 4 times the shortest side).
Then x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 4x - 1
or: 3x + 3 = 4x -1 Subtr. 3x from both sides:
3 = x - 1
x=4, x+1=5, and x+2=6
The 3 sides have lengths 4, 5 and 6.
