Answer:

16 oranges

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of oranges to apples is 4:3 which means that for every four oranges, there are 3 apples.

Since there are 12 apples in the basket, to find the number of oranges, set up a ratio.

4/3 = x/12 (x represents the number of oranges)

Cross multiply.

48 = 3x

Divide by 3.

x = 16

There are 16 oranges in the basket.

Hope that helps.

Answer:

  points closest to zero will give the least change; those farthest away will give the greatest change. Listing the points in order by distance from 0 will put them in order by amount of change.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of change is the absolute value of the number on the number line. That value is the (positive) distance from 0. The numbers will most easily be compared if they are all put on one side of zero. For example, -1.75 and 1.75 are the same distance from zero, as are -3.25 and 3.25.

Listing the points in order by distance from 0 will put them in order by amount of change. In order, least change to greatest change, the numbers are ...

  -1.75, 2.50, -3.25, -3.50, 4.75

Answer:

80 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

one half of the circle makes a straight line and that will equal 180 degrees so 60+45=105

180-105=80

so the missing angle is x=80

Find the measures of two suplametery angles if their measures are in the givin ratio 2:3
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

Let the two supplementary angles be

we know sum of two supplementary angles is 180

2x + 3x = 180

5x = 180

x = 180/5

x = 36

2*36 = 72

3*36 = 108

Therefore the two supplementary angles are 72 and 108
