Answer:

27 is 18 multiplied by 3/2
18 is 2/3 of 27

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the two numbers is 18/27 = (2·9)/(3·9) = 2/3.

So, if you're starting with 27 and you want to scale it down to 18, you multiply by the scale factor 2/3.

If you're starting with 18 and you want to scale it up to 27, you use the inverse of the above scale factor. That inverse is 3/2.

Answer:

The drove the truck for 131 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the number of miles travelled

133.65 - 20.99 = $112.66

If each mile costs 86 cents = $0.86

Step 2: Divide $112.66 by $0.86

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

So at the bottom, it says "Give lables or the x-axis and the y-axis as it relates to the situtation"

Labels are the things that show what each part of the graph means. See picture I uploaded after reading my explanation.

We first want to find out how (1, 1.5) relates to 3 tbs oil and 2 tbs vinegar

We want to find the same scale factor between the x and ys.

We can see that 1 is half of 2 and 1.5 is half 3 so we can say that,

Vinegar is the x

Oil is the y

There are 11 women and 9 men in a certain club. If the club is to select a committee of 2 women and 2 men, how many different su

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

We can tell it’s not a permutation because it’s picking two people. Order doesn’t matter.

The number of total possible groups of men is 9 C 2 = 9!/((9-2)!(2!)) = 36

The number of total possible groups of women is 11 C 2 = 11!/((11-2)!(2!)) = 55

55 * 36 = 1980 different groups in the committee
