500 : 1 expresses the ratio of sheets of paper to reams in simplest form ⇒ D

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

  • There are 4000 sheets of paper
  • There are 8 reams

We need to find the ratio between the sheets of paper to the reams in simplest form

∵ The number of the sheets is 4000

∵ The number of the reams is 8

→ sheet  :  ream

→ 4000  :  8

to simplify the ratio divide the two terms by the same number

∵ 4000 ÷ 2 = 2000 and 8 ÷ 2 = 4

∵ 2000 ÷ 2 = 1000 and 4 ÷ 2 = 2

∵ 1000 ÷ 2 = 500 and 2 ÷ 2 = 1

∴ 4000 and 8 can be divided by 8 to get the simplest form

   of the ratio

→ sheet        :  ream

→ 4000 ÷ 8  :  8 ÷ 8

→ 500           :  1

∴ The ratio of sheets to reams is 500 : 1

500 : 1 expresses the ratio of sheets of paper to reams in simplest form

Need help with number 3<br><br><br> 8/t; t = 4
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Hello

x -  7

for  x =  23   = 23 - 7 = 16

3 a - b =  12 - 6 = 6

8/t  =  8/4 =  2

9 + m =  9 + 1.5 = 10.5

1/2 w + 2 =  1/2 x 1/9 + 2 = 1/18 + 2 = 1/18 + 36/18 = 37/18

5 ( 6.2 + z ) =   50

Mrs.Kunkleman asks her students to write the Pythagorean theorem in their own words
masha68 [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem can be understood as a mathematical relationship between the sides of a right triangle that helps to understand geometric problems in real situations, such as finding measurements, calculating areas, etc.

The theorem says that the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other sides.

In a right triangle the hypotenuse is the longest side of the triangle, on the side opposite to its longest angle, and the other two sides will be the sides. So the Pythagorean theorem formula is:

a² = b² + c²

where a represents the hypotenuse and b and c the other sides.
