Answer:

6:8 compares the number of tiger shark teeth to sand shark teeth.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratios, in mathematics, is a way to compare two or more numbers in relation to their sizes. According to the question, Christian collected 18 different shark teeth. He found out that the tiger shark teeth were 6, sand shark teeth were 8, hence the remaining 4 shark teeth would be for bull shark.

In order to compare the number/size of the different shark teeth to one another, we use ratios. Hence, if we say 6:8, it means that the proportion of the tiger shark teeth to the sand shark teeth is 6 to 8. This also means that the tiger shark teeth is 6/8 of the sand shark teeth.

Find x so that l || m.
fredd [130]

Answer:

x = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Line l and m are two parallel lines cut across by the transversal line, therefore, the angle measuring 53° and (8x - 9)° are interior angles on the same side. Interior angles on the same side are supplementary.

Therefore:

53° + (8x - 9)° = 180°

Solve for x

53 + 8x - 9 = 180

Collect like terms

53 - 9 + 8x = 180

44 + 8x = 180

Subtract 44 from both sides

44 + 8x - 44 = 180 - 44

8x = 136

Divide both sides by 8

8x/8 = 136/8

x = 17

Does this look correct?
Neko [114]
That is not correct.  I will help you.  Begin by subtracting the 9x from both sides, like this:  9x - 9x + 2y = 6 - 9x.  That simplifies to 2y = -9x + 6.  Now divide both sides by 2 to get y all alone, like this:  \frac{2y}{2}=- \frac{9}{2}x+ \frac{6}{2}.  That reduces down to y=- \frac{9}{2}x+3.  That is slope-intercept form.  y = mx + b.
