A = Sock's weight
b = Princess' weight
c = Luna's weight

a : b = 4 : 5
b : c = 6 : 7

at this point, we have to change the 2 ratios (a : b and b : c) into one ratio (a : b : c)
to do that, we have to change the ratio number so the number b in both ratio is the same

a : b = 4 : 5 = 24 : 30
b : c = 6 : 7 = 30 : 35
From that we can conclude that
a : b : c = 24 : 30 : 35

Since we're looking for the ratio of Sock's weight to Luna's weight, it will be
a : c = 24 : 35

4:7 because 4 is sock's waeight and it says that in the first ratio and 7 is luna's weight because it says that in the last ratio

John paid $450 for a new mountain bicycle to sell in his shop. He wants to price it so that he can offer a 10% discount but stil
Ghella [55]

Answer:

$643.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Let i be the profit realized from the sale and d be the discount made on the sale:

#John's selling price can be calculated by first adding profit, i to $450, the d to the new price as:

P_n=P_o(1+i)+d[P_o(1+i)]\\=450(1+0.3)+0.1[450(1+0.3)]\\\\\\=450\times 1.3+0.1(450\times1.3)\\\\=585+58.5\\\\=643.50

Hence, John will resell the bike at $643.50

The plane continued to descend, but leveled off to an angle of descent of 3° degrees for approximately 2 miles. How many feet di
Alex787 [66]
ANSWER: Plane dropped 6097 feet in altitude.
BECAUSE: An airplane is at point A from where it continued to descend by 30° for an approximate distance of 2 miles
∠ACB = Angle of descent = 30°
Distance BC = 2 miles
Let the plane dropped the altitude = h miles
Now tan 30° =


h = 1.155 miles
h ≈ 1.16 miles
Since 1 mile = 5280 feet
1.15 miles = 5280×1.16 feet
= 6097 feet
Therefore, the plane dropped by 6097 feet vertically.

Given: BC bisects DBE. Prove: ABD is congruent to ABE
Arada [10]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

BC bisects <DBE and if AC is a straight line then you have that:

<ABD + <DBC = 180 (straight angle because of line AC)

<ABE + <CBE = 180 ( straight angle because of line AC)

Because BC bisects <DBE =>   < DBC = <CBE

So <ABD and <ABE must be the same to both sum 180 when added < DBC
