Answer:

A. Equivalent ratios of 5:6

We multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the same number, this way:

<u>10:12 , 15:18, 20:24, 25:30</u>

B. Equivalent ratios of 2:3

We multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the same number, this way:

<u>4:6 , 6:9, 8:12, 10:15, 12:18</u>

C. We have the same number of oranges at:

<u>10:12 and 8:12</u>

<u>15:18 and 12:18</u>

<u>Like Celeste decided not to follow the directions, she's actually using less apples than expected to fill the baskets.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's check all the information provided to answer the question correctly:

Ratio that the local hospital say to Celeste to use : 5 apples for every 6 oranges

Ratio that Celeste is actually using: 2 apples for every 3 oranges

2.  Complete the tables to find equivalent ratios.

A. Equivalent ratios of 5:6

We multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the same number, this way:

10:12 , 15:18, 20:24, 25:30

B. Equivalent ratios of 2:3

We multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the same number, this way:

4:6 , 6:9, 8:12, 10:15, 12:18

3. Circle two columns, one in each table, in which the number of oranges is the same.

We have the same number of oranges at:

10:12 and 8:12

15:18 and 12:18

Like Celeste decided not to follow the directions, she's actually using less apples than expected to fill the baskets.

Find f(x) and g(x) so the function can be expressed as y = f(g(x)). y= <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B2%7D%7Bx%5E2%
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

One possible answer is:

f(x) = (2/x) + 3 and g(x) = x².

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:

We are to write this equation as y = f(g(x)).  This means we want it to be a composite of functions; in f(x), we take the value of g(x) and use in place of x.

If we let g(x) = x², this means everywhere we see an x in f(x), we will replace it with x².  To make our equation y = 2/x² + 3, working backward we would substitute x for x²; this would give us f(x) = 2/x + 3.

A circle that has a center at the point (3, -2) with a radius of 6. Write an equation for the circle.
crimeas [40]

Answer:

(x – 3)^2+ (y +2)^2 = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

The formula for the equation of a circle is (x – h)2+ (y – k)2 = r^2,

where (h, k) represents the coordinates of the center of the circle

h=3

k=-2

r= 6

Substitute

(x – 3)^2+ (y – (-2))^2 = 6^2

(x – 3)^2+ (y +2)^2 = 36

Hence the expression for the equation of the circle is

(x – 3)^2+ (y +2)^2 = 36
