Answer:

False, 6:4 and 18:8 are equal ratios.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

6:4 ≠ 18:8

Explanation.

1. 6:4 = 6/4 = 3/2

2. 18:8= 18/8 = 9/4 = 3/2

Hence proved:

                                           6:4 = 18:8

Step-by-step explanation:

To see whether ratios are equivalent you would try to simplify them by multiplying the number and denominator by the same number in way that they don’t become decimals.

6:4 can be divided by 2 to make its simplest form of 3:2. However 18:8 can also be divided creating its simplest from of 9:4. Since 9:4 and 3:2 aren’t the same they aren’t equivalent ratios.

Please help me with this math problem!! Will give brainliest!! NO LINKS PLEASE!! Thanks!! :)
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

The sum of all the sides to this quadrilateral will equal a total of 20 inches, so you set up the equation:

2 + 2x + 7 + x + 2 = 20

Solve for x by combining like terms;

(2 + 7 + 2) + (2x + x) = 20

Which simplifies to;

11 + 3x = 20

Get rid of constants;

-11          -11

3x = 9

Isolate x by getting rid of it's coefficient;

/3  /3

<u>x = 3</u>

Now, to find the length of PQ, we plug in the value of x(3) into the equation that contains the line PQ.

x + 2

<u>3</u> + 2

= <u>5 inches.</u>

Now, to find the length of RS, we plug in the value of x(3) into the equation that contains the line RS.

2x

2(3)

= <u>6 inches.</u>

5ab^2 - 12a^2b + 3ab + ab^2 + 4a^2b
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

(a) 6ab² - 8a²b + 3ab

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: 5ab² - 12a²b + 3ab + ab² + 4a²b

In this question, we will be combining like terms.

What are like terms?

Like terms are terms with the same variables and power. For example, 2x and 4x, as well as 2a² and 4a².

Combine like terms:

5ab² - 12a²b + 3ab + ab² + 4a²b

(5ab² + ab²) + (-12a²b + 4a²b) + 3ab

6ab² - 8a²b + 3ab

If you answer this question I will mark you brainliest
GaryK [48]

Answer:

Yes they are congruent

they are congruent by SSS rule that is Side Side Side rule

AD = CD (given side) in the question itself

AB = CB  (given side) in the question itself

Db = BD (common side)

thats why by SSS rule they are congruent

Tamara says she used the GCF to factor the expression 21x + 56xy as 7(3x + 8xy). Is she correct? Explain.
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Tamara  incorrectly factored the whole expression.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that

  • 21x=3·7·x;
  • 56xy=2·2·2·7·x·y.

Mark in bold all common factors, then GCF(21x,56xy)=7·x=7x.

Thus,

21x+56xy=7x(3+8y).

Hence, Tamara correctly found the GCF of numbers 21 and 56, but incorrectly factored the whole expression.
