The ratio of boys to girls is
12:24
(which is already one statement)
the ratio, simplified, is
1:2
(ratio are like fractions, which is how I was able to "simplify" it)
Answer:
The constant of proportionality is 2.50
Step-by-step explanation:
For a weight of 1 lb, the price is $2.50, so the price in dollars is related to the weight in pounds by the constant 2.50.
The constant of proportionality is 2.50 (dollars per pound).
Answer:
(0,-4) (5,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
4x-5y=20
First, we must put the equation into slope intercept form: y= mx+b
5y=4x-20=y=4/5x-4
The y intercept, by definition, is b. In this scenario, b is -4.
One ordered pair that works is (0,-4).
Also, we can find the ordered pair for the x intercept. By definition, the x intercept is the value of x when y equals zero. hence, we substitute 0 for y and then we can find an ordered pair that works and solve for x!:
- 0=4/5(x)-4= 4=4/5x
- 4x=20
- x=5
Therefore, (5,0) works as well!
