We have: 2/25= 24/?

Cross multiply:
2*?= 25*24
⇒ 2*?= 600
⇒ ?= 600/2
⇒ ?= 300

The length of the window is 300 ft~

Can someone help please?

Answer:

y=1X

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because the distance over the money made over the days worked is 2/2 which simplifies to 1 so that would be the one x. then the y intercept is found on the y axis where does the line cross the y axis? this would be at zero so you do not need to put that in the equation

What is the ratio of blue shapes to all shapes in the set below

Reika [66]

What you can do is count all the shapes the put the number of blue with that into a fraction. Lets say that there are 24 shapes and 15 are blue the fraction would be 15/25

Hope this helped. If you post a pic I can help you more.

in a proportional relationship the ratio y/x is constant. Show that this ratio is not constant for the equation y=a-14

Colt1911 [192]

To show that the ratio $\frac{y}{x}$ is not constant for the function $y=a-14$ we only need to evaluate this function at 2 points and then show that the ratio is not the same for those two points. Note that here $a$ represents $x$ .

To find the counter examples here, I will use the values $a=20$ and $a=28$ . For $a = 20$ , the equation tells us that the output is

$y=20-14=6$ . For this value of $a$ the point is point is $(20,6)$ . The ratio $\frac{y}{x} =\frac{6}{20}$ . For the $a=28$ , $y=28-14=14$ . For this value of $a$ the point is $(28,14)$ . The ratio $\frac{y}{x} =\frac{14}{28} =\frac{1}{2}$ . Clearly this ratio is not constant for all ordered pairs.
