Answer:

The correct answer is 12 and a half or 13 weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert the values to decimals.

27 1/2 = 27.5

2 1/4 = 2.25

Then, divide miles of road that need to be repaved by the number of miles that are repaved per week.

27.5/2.25 = 12.2222222222222

Round that up to 12 and a half weeks or 13 weeks.

Which pair represents equivalent ratios? A Begin fraction . . . 2 over 3 . . . end fraction . . . and . . . begin fraction . . .
Blizzard [7]

Equivalent ratios are those ratios which are same that is on simplifying each of them, we will get the same answer.

A.\frac{2}{3} and \frac{9}{15} = \frac{3}{5}

So they are not equivalent

B.\frac{5}{8} and \frac{15}{21} = \frac{5}{7}

So they are not equivalent

C.\frac{3}{12} and \frac{6}{18} = \frac{1}{4} and \frac{1}{3}

They are not equivalent too.

D.\frac{4}{10} and \frac{12}{30} = \frac{2}{5} and \frac{2}{5}

And they are equivalent. SO the correct option is D .

WILL MAKE BRAINLIEST!!! <br> Match the correct scale factor to each dilation.<br> Solve for a and b
White raven [17]

Answer:

I am having a hard time reading the letters, so I hope this makes sense.  I think that the numbers for the top triangles is given is 6 and 3.  That means that the scale factor from the little to the big is 2 and from the big to the little is 1/2.  It is the same for the bottom triangles.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the triangles are similar the scale factors will be the same for all three corresponding sides of the triangle.  You find the two sides that are corresponding and ask yourself what do I have to multiple the side of of triangle to get the new triangle.  

If one side is 3 and the other triangles side is 6.  I am asking myself what do I have to multiple 3 by to get 6?  2.  That is my scale factor.

3x = 6

x = 2

The scale factors are always reciprocals of each other.  If I go the other direction I can write the equation

6x = 3 and when I divide both sides by 6, I get a scale factor of 1/2.

The bottom triangles:

2.5 x = 5

x = 2

and

5x = 2.5

x =1/2

Simplify ( 1/2A + 1/2B )^2
zysi [14]
Notice that both A and B are multiplied by (1/2).

Thus, the given expression can be re-written as [(1/2)(A+B)]^2.

Square the (1/2) and the (A+B) separately, and then multiply together the resulting squares:

(1/4)(A^2 + 2AB + B^2)
