This set of ratios are NOT proportional. If you were to cross multiply, you would get different products for each multiplication equation, symbolizing that these are not Proportional.

Answer:

Yes they are proportional!

The factors of 28 that we can use in these fractions are 4 and 7.  To find if these are proportional, just simplify 8/28.  To do so divide the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) both by 4...

8/28 / 4 = 4/7

Now that you have both with the same denominator, you can evaluate if 3/7 and 4/7 are proportional.  In this case they are.

Hope this helps! :)

The high school graduating class of 2010 was 260 people. Five years later the high school graduating class was 320 people. By ap
jeka94

Answer:

The high school graduating class changed by approximately 23%

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

The high school graduating class of 2010 was 260 people

Five years later the high school graduating class was 320 people.

we know that

260 people represent the 100%

so

The difference is (320-260)=60 people

using proportion

Find out what percentage represent 60 people

Let

x ----> the percentage that represent 60 people

\frac{260}{100\%}=\frac{60}{x}\\\\x= 100\%(60)/260\\\\x=23.1\%

therefore

The high school graduating class changed by approximately 23%

Which sequence represents an arithmetic sequence?
Sergio039 [100]

we know that

arithematic sequence will always have common difference

(a)

−5, −7, −10, −14, −19, …

we can see that

d_1=-7+5=-2

d_2=-10+7=-3

they are not equal

so, this is not arithematic sequence

(2)

1.5, −1.5, 1.5, −1.5, …

we can see that

d_1=-1.5-1.5=-3

d_2=1.5+1.5=3

they are not equal

so, this is not arithematic sequence

(3)

4.1, 5.1, 6.2, 7.2, …

we can see that

d_1=5.1-4.1=1

d_2=6.2+5.1=1.1

they are not equal

so, this is not arithematic sequence

(4)

−1.5, −1, −0.5, 0, …

we can see that

d_1=-1+1.5=0.5

d_2=-0.5+1=0.5

they are equal

so, this is arithematic sequence

Please answer and use statement reason
masha68 [24]

Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

FD and AC are parallel because both are perpendicular to EB. Angle EDF and Angle DCA are congruent because they are corresponding angles. The measure of Angle DCA is also 3x because congruent angles have the same measure.

Now consider Triangle ACD. Because the sum of all three measures of the angles in a triangle add up to 180°.

x + 8x + 3x = 180°

12x = 180°

12x/12 = 180/12

x = 15
