Hello

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

When 2/3 is multiplied by 4 on both numerator and the denominator,

we get 8/12..........

Thus the ratios are equivalent...

Answer:

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 and 8/12 are equal because of a multiplying factor. To get from 2 to 8, you'd have to multiply by 4. And to get from 3 to 12 you would have to multiply by 4 as well. So that means they are equal because both the numerator and denominator are multiplied by 4.

Mr. Sawyer drove his car from his home to New York at the rate of 45 mph and returned over the same road at the rate of 40 mph.

AveGali [126]

Answer: Time taken by him in going = 8 hours

Time taken by him in returning = 9 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total distance from home to New York is x miles,

$\text{ Since, Time} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}}$

Also, he drove his car from his home to New York at the rate of 45 mph,

⇒ $\text{ Time taken by him in going } = \frac{x}{45}\text{ hours}$

And, returned over the same road at the rate of 40 mph.

⇒ $\text{ Time taken by him in returning } = \frac{x}{40}\text{ hours}$

According to the question,

Time taken by him in returning - Time taken by him in going = 30 minutes = 1/2 hours, ( 1 hours = 60 minutes )

⇒ $\frac{x}{40}-\frac{x}{45}=\frac{1}{2}$

⇒ $\frac{9x}{360}-\frac{8x}{360}=\frac{1}{2}$

⇒ $\frac{x}{360} = \farc{1}{2}$

⇒ $2x=720$

⇒ $x=360\text{ miles}$

Hence, the total distance from home to New York = x miles = 360 miles

⇒ $\text{ Time taken by him in going } = \frac{x}{45}\text{ hours}$

$=\frac{360}{45}=8\text{ hours}$

⇒ $\text{ Time taken by him in returning } = \frac{x}{40}\text{ hours}$

$=\frac{360}{40}=9\text{ hours}$
