I think 2 equal ratios are called a <u>proportion</u>

- What is the solution to the inequality -3x-42>3 ?


Add 42 to both sides.

Add 3 and 42 to get 45.

Divide both sides by -3. As -3 is <0, the inequality direction has changed.

Divide 45 by -3 to get -15.

Equation of an ellipse:
(x-h)²/a² + (y-k)²/b² = 1
Since it passes through the origin (0,0) , then h = k = 0 hence the equation:
(x-0)²/a² + (y-0)²/b² = 1
x²/a² + y²/b² = 1
2a = major axis = 2.|5| + |-5| = 10. then a = 5 and a² = 25
2b = minor axis = 2.|3| + |-3| = 6. then b = 3 and b² = 9
Then the final equation is:
x²/25 + y²/9 = 1

The equation we can use is
3 + 1/4c = 9
To find the total number of pieces, we would just solve the equation.
3 + 1/4c = 9
3 - 3 +1/4c = 9 - 3
1/4c = 6
inverse of division is multiputcation
4/1 *1/4c = 6*4
c = 24
There were 24 pieces of cake in total.
