All you have to do is divide each one by its other number. For example, 5.60 for 8 is the same as one for 0.70. We accomplish this by dividing the 5.60 by 8.
So...
0.70
0.80
0.90
0.75
The first choice is the lowest.
Answer:
-20/3 & -40/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let’s say that the 1st number is X and the 2nd number is Y.
Given that x:y = 1:2 => x/y = 1/2 => 2x = y
and a-5/y+4 = 5/4 (The first number is decreased by 5 and the second number is increased by 4.)
=> 4(x - 5) = 5 (y + 4)
=> 4x - 20 = 5y + 20
=> 4x - 5y = 40
As, 2x = y , 4x = 2y
=> 2y - 5y = 40
=> -3y = 40
=> y = -40/3 ; x = y/2 = -20/3
This might be confusing but I hope this helps :)
The answer should be 2.12
-4x + 2x = -2x
6 + 5 = 11
Therefore, 11 - 2x = 0
11 = 2x
x = 11/2 = 5.5
Answer:
Measure of side YX is 22 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since ΔVWZ ~ ΔXWY, their corresponding sides will be in the same ratio.
By substituting the values given in the picture in the ratio,
By cross multiplication,
2(3x - 9) = 3(x + 8)
6x - 18 = 3x + 24
(6x -18) + 18 = 3x + 24 + 18
6x - 3x = (3x + 42) - 3x
6x - 3x = 42
3x = 42
x = 
x = 14
m(YX) = x + 8
= 14 + 8
= 22
Therefore, measure of side YX is 22 units.
