Answer:

1:2

A rate of 1 lemon per two cups of lemonade

Step-by-step explanation:

9 lemons for 18 cups can be seen as:

$\frac{9}{18}$

Simplify by dividing both numbers by 9:

$\frac{9/9}{18/9} =\frac{1}{2}$

So, one lemon is used for two cups of lemonade. Half a lemon for 1 cup of lemonade...

Enter an equation for the function that includes the points.Give your answer in a(b)x. In the event that a=1 , give your answer

Andrews [41]

Answer:

$f(x) = \frac{24}{25} * \frac{5}{6}^x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$(x_1,y_1) = (2,\frac{2}{3})$

$(x_2,y_2) = (3,\frac{5}{9})$

Required

Write the equation of the function $f(x) = ab^x$

Express the function as:

$y = ab^x$

In: $(x_1,y_1) = (2,\frac{2}{3})$

$y = ab^x$

$\frac{2}{3} = a * b^2$ --- (1)

In $(x_2,y_2) = (3,\frac{5}{9})$

$y = ab^x$

$\frac{5}{9} = a * b^3$ --- (2)

Divide (2) by (1)

$\frac{5}{9}/\frac{2}{3} = \frac{a*b^3}{a*b^2}$

$\frac{5}{9}/\frac{2}{3} = b$

$\frac{5}{9}*\frac{3}{2} = b$

$\frac{5}{3}*\frac{1}{2} = b$

$\frac{5}{6} = b$

$b = \frac{5}{6}$

Substitute 5/6 for b in (1)

$\frac{2}{3} = a * b^2$

$\frac{2}{3} = a * \frac{5}{6}^2$

$\frac{2}{3} = a * \frac{25}{36}$

$a = \frac{2}{3} * \frac{36}{25}$

$a = \frac{2}{1} * \frac{12}{25}$

$a = \frac{24}{25}$

The function: $f(x) = ab^x$

$f(x) = \frac{24}{25} * \frac{5}{6}^x$

A triangle has sides with lengths of 65 in 72 in and 97 in is it a right triangle?

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

By pythagoras' theorem,

97^2 = 9409

65^2 + 72^2 = 9409

since 65^2 + 72^2 = 97^2, the triangle is a right angled triangle
