1) Proportion a.
7 : 28 = 2 : 8
That means that the ratio 7 / 28 is equal to the ratio 2 : 8.
You can verify the equality by simplifying to the simplest form:
7 : 28 = 1 / 4 simplest form
2 : 8 = 1 / 4 simplest form, then the proportion is right.
In words that is 7 is to 28 as 1 is to 4 ← answer
2) Proportion b.<span>. 3⁄1 = 18⁄6
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>In words: 3 is to q as 18 is to 6 ← answer
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>You can verify the proportion by simplifiying the second fraction:
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span> 18 / 6 = [18 / 6] / [ 6 / 6] = 3 / 1
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>3) Proportion c. 9 : 72 = 2 : 16
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>In words: 9 is to 72 as 2 is to 16 ← answer
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>Proove the proportion:
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span> 9 / 72 = 1 / 8
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span> 2 / 16 = 1 / 8
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>4) Proportion d. 81⁄9 = 45⁄5</span>
In words: 81 is to 9 as 45 is to 5 ← answer
Proove it:
81 / 9 = 9
45 / 9 = 9
<em>Answer:</em>

You get 10% of the shirt cost, and it on to the 22.40
The third one because each banner costs $16 and x is the number of banners, $32 is just a one time fee so there is no x.

A negative number is always less than a positive.
Area of a triangle is base × height ÷2
base=8x+4 x=-4/8 x=-1/2
height=3x-4 x=4/3
A=b×h÷2
A=(-1/2×4/3)÷2
A=(-4/6)÷2
A=(-4/6)÷2/1 to divide by fractions flip the second and multiply
A=-4/6×1/2
A=-4/12
A=-1/3
