Answer:
5/7
Step-by-step explanation:
A common factor of 8 can be canceled from numerator and denominator.
40/56 = (5·8)/(7·8) = (5/7)·(8/8) = (5/7)·1 = 5/7
_____
Since you know your multiplication tables, you know that 40 and 56 are both multiples of 8.
__
If you don't know your multiplication tables, you can find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the two numbers and divide each by that. The GCD can be found using Euclid's algorithm. For that, you divide the larger by the smaller and use the remainder as the new smaller number. The original smaller number is now the larger number. For these numbers, that looks like ...
56 ÷ 40 = 1 r 16
40 ÷ 16 = 2 r 8
16 ÷ 8 = 2 r 0 . . . . . the zero remainder signals that the divisor (8) is the GCD
Now, your fraction is ...
(40/8) / (56/8) = 5/7
D would be the correct answer
Answer:
y = x + 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph of the ramp function y = x is a straight line with slope +1 and passing through the origin. If the whole graph is shifted up 5 units, the equation/function becomes
y = x + 5. The resulting graph is parallel to y = x.
120º is 1/3 of a complete revolution of 360º. So the area of this sector should be 1/3 the area of the complete circle.
A circle with radius 9 has area 9^2 π = 81π.
So the sector has area 81π/3.
Put another way: The area <em>A</em> of a circular sector and its central angle <em>θ</em> (in degrees) occur in the same ratio as the area of the entire circle with radius <em>r</em> according to
<em>A</em> / <em>θ </em>º = (π <em>r </em>^2) / 360º
==> <em>A</em> = π/360 <em>θ r</em> ^2
In this case, <em>r</em> = 9 and <em>θ</em> = 120º, so
<em>A</em> = π/360 * 120 * 81 = 81π/3
Ratios are fractions. Equivalent means equal, if you change one set of numbers, you have to change the second set of numbers so then that Ratio or Equivalent fraction stays equal on both sides.
