Answer:

a) \frac{72x^5}{9x^7}

b) =\frac{8}{x^2}

c), Yes;8x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Michael's Weight: 72x^5

Al's weight: 9x^7

a) Ratio of Michael's weight to Al's weight: \frac{72x^5}{9x^7}

b) This ratio simplifies to:  \frac{8\times 9x^5}{9x^5\timesx^2}

                                         =\frac{8}{x^2}

c) Yes, If the exponent in each expression were negative, then we have:

Ratio of Michael's weight to Al's weight: \frac{72x^{-5}}{9x^{-7}}

This ratio simplifies to:  8x^{-5--7}=8x^2

The two ratios are not the same.

Answer:

1 gram

Step-by-step explanation:

1 milliliter (ml) of water weighs 1 gram (g). The prefix in front of the unit tells you how to move the decimal. 1 milliliter = 0.001 liters because "milli" means "thousandth". 1 "thousandth" of a liter = 0.001 liters.

Marty and Ethan both wrote a function, but in different ways.
marishachu [46]

<em><u>Question:</u></em>

Marty and Ethan both wrote a function, but in different ways.

Marty

y+3=1/3(x+9)

Ethan

x y

-4 9.2

-2 9.6

0 10

2 10.4

Whose function has the larger slope?

1. Marty’s with a slope of 2/3

2. Ethan’s with a slope of 2/5

3. Marty’s with a slope of 1/3

4. Ethan’s with a slope of 1/5

<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

Marty’s with a slope of 1/3 has the larger slope

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>Given that Marty equation is:</u></em>

y + 3 = \frac{1}{3}(x+9)

<em><u>The point slope form is given as:</u></em>

y - y_1 = m(x-x_1)

Where, "m" is the slope of line

On comapring both equations,

m = \frac{1}{3}

<em><u>Ethan wrote a function:</u></em>

Consider any two values from the table we have;

(0, 10) and (2, 10.4)

<em><u>The slope is given by formula:</u></em>

m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

From above two points,

(x_1, y_1) = (0, 10)\\\\(x_2, y_2) = (2, 10.4)

Therefore,

m = \frac{10.4-10}{2-0}\\\\m = \frac{0.4}{2} \\\\m = 0.2

Thus we get,

\text{Slope of Ethan} < \text{Slope of Marty}

Therefore, Marty’s with a slope of 1/3  has the larger slope
