The ratio is 9:6 or 3:2 simplified.

a ratio is just of many of one thing there are the the quantity of another thing. In this case, there are 9 chocolate pieces to every 6 sugar pieces. This can be written as the fraction $\frac{9}{6}$ and can be simplified to $\frac{3}{2}$ So that there are 3 chocolate pieces to every 2 sugar pieces.

You would first turn it into an improper fraction, to do this you leave the denominator(bottom number) then times it by your variable and add the numerator(top number)

a is negative and it's not a digit.

What is the answer of a and b

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

G (4 , -4)

Area CDEF : 176

Step-by-step explanation:

CD ⊥ x axis

FE ⊥ x axis

Point G (x , y) x = 4 and y = -4

G (4 , -4)

CD = 5 + 4 = 9

FE = 7 + 6 = 13

DG = 12 + 4 = 16

Area CDEF = (Cd + FE) x DG / 2 = (9 + 13) x 16 /2 = 176
