Ratios are proportional if they represent the same relationship. One way to see if two ratios are proportional is to write them as fractions and then reduce them. If the reduced fractions are the same, your ratios are proportional.

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

The time it took until 2 inches of rain fell is 8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that the proportional relationship between the amount of time (in hours) it had been raining, x, and the amount of rain (in inches) it had fallen, y, is y = 0.25*x

To find the time that passed until 2 inches of rain fell, you must replace the amount of rain (in inches) that had fallen "and" by that value. In this way the following expression is obtained:

2= 0.25*x

Solving:

\frac{2}{0.25}=x

8 = x

So, remembering that the amount of time it had been raining, x, is expressed in hours, <u><em>the time it took until 2 inches of rain fell is 8 hours</em></u>.

The two lines shown intersect at the point (a,b). Find ab. Each unit square in the grid represents a distance of 1.
Ket [755]

Answer:

(9/5, 8/5)

Step-by-step explanation:

First you want to find the equations of the lines. One line is y = 2x - 2 and the other line is y = 1/3x + 1. Then you want to find the x and y that both work in the two equations.

y = 2x - 2

y = 1/3x + 1

Then you do 2x - 2 = 1/3x + 1

Then you do some maths and you get 9/5, and 8/5

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Intervals = (1,064) , (1,036)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Use 95% method

Mean = 1,050

Standard deviation = 7

Find:

Intervals.

Computation:

95% method.

⇒ Intervals = Mean ± 2(Standard deviation)

⇒ Intervals = 1,050 ± 2(7)

⇒Intervals = 1,050 ± 14

⇒ Intervals = (1,050 + 14) , (1,050 - 14)

⇒ Intervals = (1,064) , (1,036)
