How to do Ratios in middle school

Answer:

go look up this website for more help: https://www.educationworld.com/a_curr/explainthat/explainthat006.shtml

Step-by-step explanation:

In mathematics, a ratio indicates how many times one number contains another. For example, if there are eight oranges and six lemons in a bowl of fruit, then the ratio of oranges to lemons is eight to six (that is, 8∶6, which is equivalent to the ratio 4∶3). Similarly, the ratio of lemons to oranges is 6∶8 (or 3∶4) and the ratio of oranges to the total amount of fruit is 8∶14 (or 4∶7).

The numbers in a ratio may be quantities of any kind, such as counts of people or objects, or such as measurements of lengths, weights, time, etc. In most contexts, both numbers are restricted to be positive.

A ratio may be specified either by giving both constituting numbers, written as "a to b" or "a∶b", or by giving just the value of their quotient

a

/

b

.[1] Equal quotients correspond to equal ratios.

Consequently, a ratio may be considered as an ordered pair of numbers, as a fraction with the first number in the numerator and the second as denominator, or as the value denoted by this fraction. Ratios of counts, given by (non-zero) natural numbers, are rational numbers, and may sometimes be natural numbers. When two quantities are measured with the same unit, as is often the case, their ratio is a dimensionless number. A quotient of two quantities that are measured with different units is called a rate.[2]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

3x^2 + 17x +10 =0

(3x+   ) ( x+   ) =0

We need to factor 10  = 2*5  or 1*10

They are positive since we have all positive terms

3*5 = 15+2 = 17

The 5 needs to multiply the 3 so it goes on the outside

(3x+   ) ( x+  5 ) =0

That leaves the 2 on the inside

(3x+ 2  ) ( x+ 5  ) =0

Using the zero product property

3x+2 =0     x+5=0

3x = -2          x=-5

x = -2/3          x = -5
