Answer:
No, those ratios are not proportional.
Step-by-step explanation:
The reason for them not being proportional is because 2/5 is already in its simplest form and 40/16 in its simplest form is 5/2, resulting in them not being equivalent meaning that they are not proportional.
34 * .25 = 8.5
34 - 8.5 = 25.5
It's $25.5 with 25% off.
Answer:
12a
3/4
34.8
a = 3.2
Step-by-step explanation:
9a + 6 = 34.8
9a = 28.8
28.8/9 = 3.2
Answer:
Each friend got 6 cars each
Step-by-step explanation:
17-5= 12 cars
He gave 12 cars away.
Since there are 2 friends, you divide the cars given away by 2, hence
12/2= 6
Explanation:
Consider the case a = -1. Then the expression becomes ...
(-1+1)(-1+1) > (-1-1)(-1-1) . . . . test case
0·0 > (-2)(-2) . . . . . simplified a bit
0 > 4 . . . . . . . . NOT TRUE
_____
If we subtract the right side from both sides, the inequality becomes ...
(a+1)(a+1) -(a-1)(a-1) > 0
a² +2a +1 -(a² -2a +1) > 0
4a > 0
a > 0
The inequality is only true for positive values of "a". For a ≤ 0, the inequality will not be true.
