Answer:

In problems involving proportions, we can use cross products to test whether two ratios are equal and form a proportion. To find the cross products of a proportion, we multiply the outer terms, called the extremes, and the middle terms, called the means.

The prism shown has a volume of 35 cm.
Vesna [10]

Answer:

1.25cm

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Complete question:</em>

The prism has a volume of 35 cm cubed  workout h, the height of the triangular cross section

<em>length=7cm</em>

<em>width = 4cm</em>

<em></em>

The volume of the prism is expressed as;

Volume = Base Area * Height

Given

Volume of the prism = 35cm^3

Base Area = length * width

Base Area =  7cm * 4cm

Base Area = 28cm^2

Substitute the given values into the formula

35 = 28* Height

Cross multiply

35 = 28 * Height

35 = 28 Height

Height = 35/28

Height = 1.25cm

Hence the height of the triangular cross section is 1.25cm

Suppose the real exchange rate is 3/4 gallon of country A's gasoline per gallon of U.S. gasoline, a gallon of U.S. gasoline cost
olchik [2.2K]
The nominal exchange rate (NER) is given by:

NER = RER × (foreign price / US price)
        = 3/4 × ( 6 / 3)
        = 3/2

In fact, with 1$ you can buy 1/3 of a US gallon, which corresponds to 1/4 of a foreigner gallon, which you would pay 3/2units.

Hence, the correct answer is a) <span>3/2 units of country A's currency per dollar.</span>

Which problem would you use the following proportion to solve for? = what is 40% of 24? what percent is 24 of 40? twenty-four is
ser-zykov [4K]
First you have to remember that to find a percentage you can multiply a number by the percentage's decimal form, for example 40% of 100 would be .40 * 100.
Anyways, 24*.40 =9.6.
To find the percentage however, you must divide 24/40 which equals 0.6, which is equal to the percentage 60%.
To find the third question, you must multiply 24 by 2.5 (0.4 * 2.5 = 1) and you should get 60.
The last question you may have made a typo on, you repeated the first question.
