Ratios are the quantitative relation between two amounts showing the number of times one value contains or is contained within the other.
Equivalent ratios are like equivalent fractions, if they are the same value they are equivalent.
For example, to find two ratios that are equal to 1:7, first write 1:7 as the fraction 1/7.
Answer:
D. difference of squares
Step-by-step explanation:
Both of the terms x^2 and 9 are squares, so their difference is the difference of squares. The factorization of that is a "special form" that can be usefully memorized.
a^2 -b^2 = (a -b)(a +b)
x^2 -9 = (x -3)(x +3)
Answer:
so where are the 3 consecutive numbers?
Because the earth is round, the distance seen on a flat map is a lot further than the distance on a globe, because of distortion. So following the circle that goes through these 3 points ( Florida, Alaska and the Philippines) it is a shorter distance to fly over Alaska.
