Mathematics

shepuryov [24]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

  No

Step-by-step explanation:

Each ratio is irreducible, and they are different. Hence they are not the same value, so cannot be a proportion. A proportion is two equal ratios.

  5 : 3 = 40 : 24

  13 : 8 = 39 : 24 . . . . not the same as 40 : 24

_____

<em>Examples of proportions</em>

  5/3 = 40/24 . . . is a proportion

  13/8 = 39/24 . . . is a proportion

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Her speed is of 2 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Velocity:

The velocity is given by the following formula:

v = \frac{d}{t}

In which v is the velocity, d is the distance and t is the time.

2/3 mile in 1/3 hour .

This means that d = \frac{2}{3}, t = \frac{1}{3}

Which unit rate describes antoinettes speed in miles per hour?

This is v. So

v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{\frac{2}{3}}{\frac{1}{3}} = \frac{2}{3}*\frac{3}{1} = 2

Her speed is of 2 miles per hour.

IceJOKER [234]
The sample space has 36 possible pairs from 1,1 1,2 1,3 up to 6,5 and 6,6

(a). Three pairs add to 4 1,3 2,2 and 3,1 so P(4) = 3/36 = 1/12

(b). 6 pairs add to 7 so P(7) = 6/36 = 1/6

(c) 15 pairs add to less than 7 so P(<7) = 15/36 = 5/12
