Answer:

17:21

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio 68:84 in its simpliest form is;

68:84 (Since it can divided by 2 perfectly);

34:42 (We also divide this by 2 )

17:21 

17:21 is the final answer and it can be divide any further. Since 17 is a prime number, it can't be divided and also 21 can be divided by 3 but 17 can't be divided by 3 so we leave the final answer like that.

The sales tax on a one-half-carat diamond ring is $76. Find the purchase price of the ring (before tax) of the sales tax rate is

NISA [10]

So.. hmmm if we take "x" to be the 100% sale price before tax, $76 is really 9.5% of that

thus $\bf \begin{array}{ccllll}
amount&\%\\
\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash&\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\\
76&9.5\\
x&100
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{76}{x}=\cfrac{9.5}{100}$

solve for "x"

Answer:

-2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the slope using and two points

m = ( y2 -y2)/(x2-x1)

= ( 25-20)/(-10 - -8)

= 5/( -10+8)

= 5/-2

- 2.5
