Answer:
Both proportions are equivalent.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given two proportions
and
. We are asked to find why the solutions to our given proportions are equal.
We can solve proportions by cross multiplying them.
After cross multiplying our both proportions we will get same equation that is:




Since we get same equation after cross multiplying both proportions, therefore, the solutions to the given proportions would be same.

t = 6.25 years
(about 6 years 3 months)
Equation:
t = (1/r)(A/P - 1)
Calculation:
First, converting R percent to r a decimal
r = R/100 = 4%/100 = 0.04 per year,
then, solving our equation
t = (1/0.04)((2500/2000) - 1) = 6.25
t = 6.25 years
The time required to get a total amount, principal plus interest, of $2,500.00 from simple interest on a principal of $2,000.00 at an interest rate of 4% per year is 6.25 years (about 6 years 3 months).

The two distances are the same (out and back), so set them equal.
That is done by having a (rate)(time) equal a (rate)(time).
One time is “x” and the other is “4.8-x.”
One rate is 460 and the other is 500.
460 x = 500 (4.8 -x)
460 x = 2400 - 500x
900 x = 2400
x = 2.5 hours for the slower plane.
4.8- x = 2.3 hours for the faster plane.
AD is 17 using the Pythagorean Theron
The total cost for plumber number 1 expressed as a function of x is
c1(x)=45x+90
That is, the charge per hour times the number of hours plus the fixed charge for a visit.
Using the same pattern, write the function for the second plumber. Then set the two functions equal to each other and solve for
