Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the ratios of the corresponding sides are equal then they would be the sides of 2 similar triangles.

Calculate the ratio of corresponding sides.

$\frac{6}{1.5}$ = 4

$\frac{10}{2.5}$ = 4

$\frac{12}{3.5}$ ≠ 4

Thus the sides are not the corresponding sides of similar triangles.

Which is greater, 4.87 x 10^9 or 9.212 x 10^8? <br> please helpp

STatiana [176]

Answer: 4.87 x 10^9 is greater than 9.212 *10^8

Step-by-step explanation:

4.87 x 10^9 is greater than 9.212 *10^8 because it has the greater exponent.

4.87 * 10^9 = 4,870,000,000

9.212 *10^8= 921,200,000

4,870,000,000 > 921,200,000

Represent Real-world Problems If one store is selling of a bushel of apples for $9, and another store is selling of a bushel of

Firlakuza [10]

Better deal normlly means the rate that cost less
rate=cost/amount

9=cost and 3/4 bushel = amount for one store
3/4=0.75
9/0.75=12/1 aka $12/1bushel

9 =cost and 2/3 bushel =amount for another
2/3=about 0.66666
9/0.66666=13.5/1 aka $13.5/1 bushell

compare
12 dollars per bushe vs 13.5 dollar per bushel
12 is cheaper

therefor $9 For 3/4 bushel is better deal
