Answer:

The slope would be 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

y= mx +b

m= slope

perpendicular lines have slopes that are multiplied in order to get -1

these are important

2x + y = 4

subtract 2x

y=-2x +4

your slope is -2

-2 * ? = -1

? = -1/-2

? = 1/2

Write the following as a ratio: $72 for 488 photos

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

The required ratio is 9 : 61

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

$72 for 488 photos,

That is, the price of 488 photos = 72 dollars,

So, the ratio of price of photos and number of photos = $\frac{72}{488}$

∵ HCF(72, 488) = 8,

Thus, the ratio of price of photos and number of photos = $\frac{72\div 8}{488\div 8}$

= $\frac{9}{61}$

In a genetic experiment involving flower color in phlox, a ratio of 3 blue-flowered plants to 1 whiteflowered plant was expected

aliya0001 [1]

Answer: The observed ratio is different from the expected ratio.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Expected ratio :

Ratio of blue flowered plants to white flowered plant = 3:1

Observed results:

Number of blue flowered plants = 35

Number of white flowered plants = 14

So, Ratio of blue flowered plants : white flowered plants

$35:14\\\\=5:2$

So, 5:2 ≠ 3:1

Hence, the observed ratio is different from the expected ratio.
