There are 6 apples and 2 oranges.
So the ratio of apples to oranges would be 6:2.
However this can be simplified, because these number have a common factor, which is 2. So you divide 2 by 2, and 6 by 2, and get 1 and 3. So the ratio of apples to oranges in simplified form is 1:3. Hope this explains it :)

Answer:  The required ratio in simplest form is 3 : 1.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the ratio of apples to oranges in simplest form.

From the picture, we note that

the number of apples, a = 6

and

the number of oranges, o = 2.

Therefore, the ratio of the number of apples to the number of oranges is given by

a:o\\\\=6:2\\\\=\dfrac{6}{2}\\\\=\dfrac{3}{1}\\\\=3:1.

Thus, the required ratio in simplest form is 3 : 1.

the equation y= - 5.131x2+ 31.821x - 3.333 approximates the number of people standing in line to catch a commuter train x hours
ehidna [41]

We are given function: y= - 5.131x^2+ 31.821x - 3.333

Where, x is the number of hours after 5a.m.

We need to approximates the number of people standing in line to catch a commuter train at 7 a.m.

From 5 a.m. to 7 a.m. total number of hours = 7-5 = 2 hours.

So, we need to plug x=2 in the given function.

Plugging x=2 in y=- 5.131x^2+ 31.821x - 3.333, we get

y=- 5.131(2)^2+ 31.821(2) - 3.333

Let us simplify it now.

2^2= 4.

Therefore,

y=- 5.131(4)+ 31.821(2) - 3.333

= -20.524 + 63.642 - 3.333.

= 39.785 or 40 approximately.

Therefore, the number of people in line at 7 a.m. is approximately 40 people.

Option D.40 is correct option.
