1) Proportion a.
7 : 28 = 2 : 8
That means that the ratio 7 / 28 is equal to the ratio 2 : 8.
You can verify the equality by simplifying to the simplest form:
7 : 28 = 1 / 4 simplest form
2 : 8 = 1 / 4 simplest form, then the proportion is right.
In words that is 7 is to 28 as 1 is to 4 ← answer
2) Proportion b.<span>. 3⁄1 = 18⁄6
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>In words: 3 is to q as 18 is to 6 ← answer
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>You can verify the proportion by simplifiying the second fraction:
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span> 18 / 6 = [18 / 6] / [ 6 / 6] = 3 / 1
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>3) Proportion c. 9 : 72 = 2 : 16
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>In words: 9 is to 72 as 2 is to 16 ← answer
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>Proove the proportion:
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span> 9 / 72 = 1 / 8
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span> 2 / 16 = 1 / 8
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>4) Proportion d. 81⁄9 = 45⁄5</span>
In words: 81 is to 9 as 45 is to 5 ← answer
Proove it:
81 / 9 = 9
45 / 9 = 9
<h3>Unit price is $ 0.56 per pound of potatoes</h3><h3>Unit price is $ 3.1 per pound of broccoli</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
Unit price is the price of 1 unit

<h3><u>Find unit price of potatoes</u></h3>
A shopper paid $2.52 for 4.5 pounds of potatoes

Thus unit price is $ 0.56 per pound of potatoes
<h3><u>Find unit price of broccoli</u></h3>
$7.75 for 2.5 pounds of broccoli

Thus unit price is $ 3.1 per pound of broccoli
Answer: Segment GD is parallel to segment HC.
Step-by-step explanation:
In ΔAHC
AG=GH (given)...........1
As BD is the median of ΔABC bisecting AC at D
∴AD=DC.........2
⇒
(from 1 and 2)
⇒segment GD is dividing the sides AH and AC in same ratio.
Therefore by the converse of Basic proportionality theorem,segment GD is parallel to segment HC.
Converse of basic probability theorem states that if a line divides any two sides of a triangle in the same ratio, then the line must be parallel to the third side.
