Mathematics

Mila [183]3 years ago
4 0

Step-by-step explanation: In algebra, we use the word <em>slope</em> to describe how steep a line is and slope can be found using the ratio <em>rise/run </em>between any two points that are on that line.

The ratio <em>rise/run</em> is the equal to the rate of change

or the <em>change in y/change in x</em>.

In algebra, the rate of change or the <em>change in y/change in x</em> or

the <em>rise/run</em> is also called the slope of a line.

Priya's cat weighs 5 1/2 pounds and her dog weighs 8 1/4 pounds
tangare [24]

The answer is 2/3 times as heavy as the dog.

Since we are looking for the weight of the cat in relation to the dog's weight, we have to divide the cat's weight by the dog's weight.

5 1/2 = 5.5, 8 1/4 = 8.25.

5.5 / 8.25 = 2/3.

No.
1/4 would be proportional to 9/36.

8/36 can be simplified to 4/18, and further reduced to 2/9.
