Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets find out the ratios for the bracelet and the necklace. Remember that a ratio between a and b if the relation between the amounts of a respect to the amount of b and can be written as a:b or a/b.

So, the bracelet has 14 red and 19 gold, so the ratio between red and gold is 14/19. We cannot simplify this ratio as there are not common factors between 14 and 19, because 19 is a prime number.

Now lets find out the ratio for the necklace. As there are 84 red and 133 gold the ratio will be 84/133. For this ratio to be equal to 14/19 it should be that 84 is multiple of 14 and 133 multiple of 19, and both multiples must the same, this is:

84/133 = 14/19

or

84/14 = 133/19

And we know that 84/14 = 42/7 = 6

And 133/19 = 7

So, both ratios are not equal. If we verify on a calculator we have:

14/19 = 0.743

84/133 = 0.63

Thus, we can confirm they do not have the same ratio of red to gold beads.

Answer:

Hey there!

First we find the slope: -3-0/10-4, or -3/6. That makes the slope -1/2.

Using point slope form we have-

y-0=-1/2(x-4)

y=-1/2x+2

Let me know if this helps, or if you need any more help :)

The school sold 200 tickets to play. Student tickets are $4 and adult tickets are $6. If they made a total $930 how many of each
motikmotik

Answer:

65 adult tickets and 135 student tickets were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

4s + 6a = 930

s + a = 200

s = -a + 200

4(-a + 200) + 6a = 930

-4a + 800 + 6a = 930

2a + 800 = 930

2a = 130

a = 65

There were 65 adult tickets sold.

200 - 65 = 135

There were 135 student tickets sold.

Check:

4(135) + 6(65) = 930

540 + 390 = 930

930 = 930
