Answer:

84

Step-by-step explanation:

4 : 12 = 28 : x

If you do something to one side you have to do the same thing to the other side.

28 ÷ 4 = 7

12 × 7 = 84

Hope This Helps :)

Answer:

84

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a proportion using fractions.

\frac{4}{12} = \frac{28}{x}

Now, let's cross multiply by multiplying 12 and 28 then dividing by 4.

12\cdot28=336\\\\336\div4=84

Hope this helped!

What is the purpose of knowing the angle of elevation and depression in relation to the field of surveyor, military/police, aero
Alex73 [517]

The purpose of knowing the angle of elevation and depression in relation to the field of surveyor, military/police, aeronautics (pilot), engineers, landscapers, and architects is discussed below

<h3>What is angle of elevation and depression?</h3>

If a person stands and looks up at an object, the angle of elevation is the angle between the horizontal line of sight and the object. If a person stands and looks down at an object, the angle of depression is the angle between the horizontal line of sight and the object.

If the pilot looks straight out, that line of sight is horizontal (focused on the distant horizon). The pilot might see the airport's runway, distant buildings, or even mountains in her field of view.

If the pilot looks down at the ground, the one will see the ground crew. The angle of depression is the angle that is formed between the horizontal and the downward looking angle. It is always a downward view, an angle below the horizon.

For the ground crewmember, looking down would not be much help in communicating with the pilot in her cockpit seat. The crewmember will look up, above the horizontal line, to see the pilot. The ground crewmember's angle of vision if an angle of elevation, the angle above the horizon.

Angle of elevation or depression in a survey can be defined as the angle subtended between the line of sight passing through the scope and the horizontal axis of the instrument.

Engineers, landscapers, architects all use trigonometry in their everyday life to help them efficiently and safely create or design something new.

How many 1/4 cup servings of raisins are in 7/8 cups of raisins?
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 7/8 by 1/4.  (You divide the "supply" of raisins into 1/4 cup "parts".)

\frac{7}{8} \div \frac{1}{4} = \frac{7}{8} \times \frac{4}{1} = \frac{28}{8} =\frac{7}{1} =7

Multiply 7/8 by the reciprocal of 1/4 ("flip" the 1/4).

The result is 28/8, which can be simplified ("reduced") to 7.

the ratio of peters money to henrys money is 4 : 3 there at first. after perter spent 12 dollars they had an equal amount of mon
MatroZZZ [7]

Using a system of equations, it is found that Peter had $48 at first.

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.

In this problem, the variables are:

  • Variable x: Peter's money.
  • Variable y: Henry's money.

The ratio of peters money to henrys money is 4 : 3, hence:

\frac{x}{y} = \frac{4}{3}

After Peter spent $12, they had the same amount, hence:

y = x - 12.

Then, replacing in the ratio:

\frac{x}{y} = \frac{4}{3}

\frac{x}{x - 12} = \frac{4}{3}

4(x - 12) = 3x

x = 48.

Jim read 24 pages in 40 minutes on Tuesday and 18 pages in 24 minutes on Wednesday. Are the ratios of pages read to minutes on T
IRISSAK [1]

Answer: Not proportional


Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of pages read by Jim on Tuesday to minutes =\frac{24}{40}=\frac{3}{5}=3:5

Ratio of pages read by Jim on Wednesday to minutes =\frac{18}{24}=\frac{3}{4}=3:4

But \frac{3}{5}\neq \frac{3}{4}

Therefore, the ratios of pages read to minutes on Tuesday and Wednesday are not proportional.
