Answer:

3:6:4

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Number of apples in the basket=12

Number of pears in the basket=24

Number of oranges in the basket=16

We have to find the ratio of apples, pears and oranges in the  basket.

12=4\times 3

24=4\times 3\times 2

16=4\times 2\times 2

HCF (12,24,16)=4

Now, divide each number by HCF

Then, we get

3:6:4

Therefore, the ratio of apples, pears and oranges in the  basket.

3:6:4

Arrange the slope values in order from least steep to most steep
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

0 => -⅘ => 1.5 => 3 => -4 => -\frac{11}{2} (-5.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The greater the absolute value of a slope, the steeper the slope. By absolute value, we mean the non-negative value of tthe .

To arrange the slope values, from the least steep to the steepest, ignore the negative sign in any of the slope values.

Thus, in the order from the least steep to the steepest, we have:

0 => -⅘ => 1.5 => 3 => -4 => -\frac{11}{2} (-5.5)

The greater the absolute value of the slope, the greater the vertical movement. The greater the vertical movement, the steeper the slope.

A slope value of 0 connotes a horizontal line.

Is one flag a translation image of the other, or a rotation image? EXPLAIN
S_A_V [24]

The flags are a translation. Both flags are located at different origins, so it couldn't be a rotation. Both flags have the colors in the same place ( black on the bottom, white on the top) so one flag was moved up or down from the other flag, which is a translation.
