You will have to write a proportion. Then use common denominators to write equivalent ratios. For example;

What is the weight of a 3 Ib human brain in ounces?
Use a proportion to convert 3 Ibs to oz.

16 ounces ? oz
————— = —————
1pound 3 pounds


Use common denominators to write equivalent ratios.


16•3 ?
----- = --- 3 is a common denominator.
1•3 3

48 ?
--- = ---
3 3

Equivalent rates with the same denominators have the same nominators.

?= 48

The weight is 48 ounces.

Can you explain how a table can be used to find the rate of change
serg [7]

A table will generally give you an output value for each of several input values. To find the average rate of change over some range of inputs, divide the difference between output values by the difference between input values for the corresponding inputs.

For example, consider the table

input .... output

.. 1 ............ 3

.. 3 ........... -5

The average rate of change between these input values is

... (change in output)/(change in input) = (-5 -3)/(3 - 1) = -8/2 = -4.

I BET NO ONE KNOWS THIS Place a checkmark next to each answer choice that describes a situation in which economic indicators mig
Arada [10]

Answer:

E, F, B, and C

Step-by-step explanation:

Im just learning about these kind of things and this is a challenging question not going to lie.

I chose B because expanding and building more factories is apart of economics. You need more land to expand your business, but this will also affect the economy.

C seems like a good answer also because writing about economic trends is an important thing in economics. This also helps others learn out the economy and what not to do and what to do to help make our environment a better place.

I chose E because starting a business is apart of economics. A lot of business are apart of economic systems and help money come into our economy.

F is a good answer for me because the U.S government has been apart of America's economic system for a long time just like they are involved with everything else. The government is a big help and a big part of our economy, especially for america.
