Ratio ⇒ 5 : 7

Find total parts:
Total Parts = 5 + 7 = 12

Find 1 part:
12 parts = £840
1 part = £840 ÷ 12 = £70

Find 5 parts:
1 part = £70
5 parts = £70 x 5 = £350

Find 7 parts:
1 part = £70
7 parts = £70 x 7 = £490

3+4 = 7
840/7 = 120 
3×120 = 360 
4×120 = 480 

£360:£480 = 3:4

Consider the ratio 3:5. Can you create an equivalent ratio by adding the same number to each quantity in the ratio? Explain

iragen [17]

Yes because the unit rate would be 1:2 and that's the rate of change in which 3:5 has.
HOPE IT HELPS!!

If g (x) = 1/x^2 then g (x+h) - g (x)/h

$\bf g(x)=\cfrac{1}{x^2}~\hspace{5em}\cfrac{g(x+h)-g(x)}{h}\implies \cfrac{\frac{1}{(x+h)^2}-\frac{1}{x^2}}{h} \\\\\\ \textit{using the LCD of }(x+h)^2(x^2)\qquad \cfrac{\frac{x^2-(x+h)^2}{(x+h)^2(x^2)}}{h}\implies \cfrac{x^2-(x+h)^2}{h(x+h)^2(x^2)} \\\\\\ \cfrac{x^2-(x^2+2xh+h^2)}{h(x+h)^2(x^2)}\implies \cfrac{\underline{x^2-x^2}-2xh-h^2}{h(x+h)^2(x^2)}\implies \cfrac{-2xh-h^2}{h(x+h)^2(x^2)}$

The width of a rectangular room is 80% of its length. If the length of the room is 20 meters, what is the area of the room? A= l

KIM [24]

Answer:320ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

80% of 20 is 16, because 80% is 4/5 and 20 divided by 5 is 4, multiplied by 4 is 16. Area is L x W, so 16 times 20 is 320, and don't forget unit of measurement, ft^2 for area

A carnival ride is in the shape of a wheel with a radius of 15 feet. The wheel has 24 cars attached to the center of the wheel.

Anarel [89]

The radius the wheel (circle) is 15 ft a circle is equal to 360° so
1the central angle is: 5/360=24°
the circumference is: 2 π 24= 150.7ft
The arc is: 150.7/24= 6.28ft
The area of sector is: = 1/20 * Area of circle
= 1/20 * pi * (25)^2 
= 98.17 feet^2
I hope that this is helpful :)
