Reduce each ratio to its minimum expression to find if they are equal.
35:28
10:8
Since both ratios reduce to 5:4, they are equivalent.
Another way to check a:b is equivalent to c:d, is that a*d = b*c
In this case, this will be true if 35 times 8 is equal to 10 times 28:
Since both products are equal, then the ratios are equivalent.
X=the number we have to find.
This expression "2(x+9)" is when the sum of a number and nine is doubled.
If the result is seven less than the number, we will have: x-7
We can suggest the following equation:
2(x+9)=(x-7)
2x+18=x-7
2x-x=-7-18
x=-25
answer: the number would be: -25.
Answer:
1. The first problem is wrong, it should be 0.5(3(15) + 2(20)) because the parentheses make sure that every purchased item is being divided by 2 (multiplying by 0.5 is the same as dividing by 2)
2. The second problem is partially correct. The first two answers you have checked are correct, but the last one is wrong. The third answer should be 6 + 12 instead because that's just a simplified version of 2(3) + 6(2), meaning they are equal
3. I cannot read your answers in the "Why or Why Not" column in the third problem, but the answers you gave in the "Evaluate" and "Does It Work?" columns are all correct.
