Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let k be the constant of proportionality.  Then we use it as follows:

2k + 3k = 500, or 5k = 500, or k = 100.

Thus, the number of picture books is 2(100) = 200, and the number of chapter books is 3(100) = 300.

As checks:  200 + 300 = 500 (books), and

200

-------- = 2/3, as specified in the problem.

300

Is 1/9 >, <, or = {Negative} -4?
kvasek [131]

<u>Answer:</u>

1/9 > -4

because -4 is a negative no less than 0. whereas 1/9 is a positive no greater than 0.

So negative no can't be greater than positive no.

A frame is 6in tall and 8 in wide. What if it was reduced to a width of 4in then how tall will it be
kkurt [141]

Answer:

  3 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Apparently, we are to assume that the height and width are proportional:

  height/width = (6 in)/(8 in) = (new height)/(4 in)

Multiplying by 4 in will tell us the new height:

  new height = (4 in)(6/8) = 3 in

The reduced frame will be 3 inches tall.
