For this case, we have that by definition, the proportions can be expressed in different ways. Example, if we have a dog and three cats:

75%: It's percentage

0.75: In decimal (75% are cats)

\frac {3} {4}: In fraction. (There are \frac {3} {4} of cats)

3: 1: Using ":" to separate sample values. (For every three cats there is a dog)

Care should be taken with the proportions, always multiplying the numbers in the proportion by the same value.

Example:3: 1 = 3 * 2: 1 * 2 = 6: 2

Answer:

Care should be taken with the proportions, always multiplying the numbers in the proportion by the same value.

Angelina_Jolie [31]

The rate of 8 gallons every 25 hours means that the faucet fills \frac{8}{25} gallons every hour.

Multiply the unit rate for the number of hours you're interested in to find

\dfrac{8}{25}\cdot 13 = \dfrac{104}{25}

Find each measurement indicated round your answers to the nearest tenth. Part 1d. NO LINKS OR ANSWERING QUESTIONS YOU DON'T KNOW
valkas [14]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Sine rule in all 3 questions

(1)

\frac{a}{sinA} = \frac{b}{sinB} , substitute values , firstly calculating ∠ B

[ ∠ B = 180° - (78 + 49)° = 180° - 127° = 53° ]

\frac{a}{sin78} = \frac{18}{sin53} ( cross- multiply )

a sin53° = 18 sin78° ( divide both sides by sin53° )

a = \frac{18sin78}{sin53} ≈ 22.0 ( to the nearest tenth )

(3)

\frac{c}{sinC} = \frac{a}{sinA} , substitute values

\frac{35}{sinC} = \frac{45}{sin134} ( cross- multiply )

45 sinC = 35 sin134° ( divide both sides by 35 )

sinC = \frac{35sin134}{45} , then

∠ C = sin^{-1} ( \frac{35sin134}{45} ) ≈ 34.0° ( to the nearest tenth )

(5)

Calculate the measure of ∠ B

∠ B = 180° - (38 + 92)° = 180° - 130° = 50°

\frac{a}{sinA} = \frac{b}{sinB} , substitute values

\frac{BC}{sin38} = \frac{10}{sin50} ( cross- multiply )

BC sin50° = 10 sin38° ( divide both sides by sin50° )

BC = \frac{10sin38}{sin50} ≈ 8.0 ( to the nearest tenth )
