Answer:

Not proportional.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ratios:

To tell whether the ratios are proportional or not.

Solution:

In order to tell whether the given ratios are proportional or not, we will reduce the fractions to the simplest numbers by dividing the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor and then comparing them. If they are equal then the ratios are proportional else not proportional.

So, the simplest form of 4/2 can be calculated by dividing both by 2 as it is the G.C.F.

the simplest form of 8/6 can be calculated by dividing both by 2 as it is the G.C.F.

Now, since 2/1 does not equal 4/3, hence the ratios are not proportional.

(15a^4 - 30a^5 )/5a^2

= 5a^2(3a^2 - 6a^3) / 5a^2

= 3a^2 - 6a^3

or

= - 6a^3  +  3a^2

You must calculate the number of sheets of plywood needed for subflooring. Each sheet of plywood measures 4'by 8. The measuremen
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

25 sheets of plywood will be needed

Step-by-step explanation:

Each sheet of plywood measures 4ft*8ft=32ft^{2}.

We have to cover the surface of the house, minus the surface of the hole of the stairs.

Surface _{to cover} = Surface _{house} -Surface _{hole}= (28ft*30ft)-(12ft*4ft)= 840ft^{2}-48ft^{2}=792ft^{2}

To know how many sheets will be needed, we divide the surface to be covered by the surface of each sheet

Sheets_{needed} =\frac{Surface _{house}}{Surface _{sheet}} =\frac{792ft^{2}}{32\frac{ft^{2}}{sheet} } = 24,75 sheets

As we can't buy 0,75 of a sheet, we round it up, i.e. we will need 25 sheets of plywood for subflooring.
