Answer:
Cross multiplication is the method used to determine whether or not a proportion is true.
Explanation:
If you know one ratio in a proportion, you can use that information to find values in the other equivalent ratio.
Cross multiplication is the method used to determine whether or not a proportion is TRUE.
For example, if a bowl of fruit contains 10 oranges and 8 lemons, then the ratio of oranges to lemons is 10 is to 8 (that is, 10 : 8 ), which is equivalent to the ratio 5:4).
The slope is 3.5, also known as 3 1/2.
Answer:
0.27 repeating.
Step-by-step explanation:
So to solve this we just have to use division.
1 clearly doesnt go into 3 at least one time, so we can add a decimal point and add a 0 to make it 30.
11 goes into 30 2 times, so we have:
0.2
and 30-22=8
So we can add another 0 and make it 80.
Then 11 goes into 80 7 times. So we have:
0.27
and 80-77=3
So again, add the 0, we have 30.
11 goes into 30 2 times, so:
0.272
and 30-22=8
Add another 0 we get 80.
11 goes into 80 7 times.
So finally, we have:
0.2727.
This is a repeating decimal.
This can be shown as:
0.<u>27</u>
So this is your answer!
I was a bit confused with which one it was on your answer key, but knowing that it is 0.<u>27</u> I am guessing you can chose!
Hope this helps!
Find the sum of -3a and 5a -3
-3a + (5a-3)
2a-3
4.5x + 1.5y = 24 ⇒ 4.5x + 1.5y = 24
1.0x - 1.0y = 4 ⇒<u> 4.5x - 4.5y = 18</u>
<u>6y</u> = <u>6</u>
6 6
y = 1
4.5x + 1.5(1) = 24
4.5x + 1.5 = 24
<u> - 1.5 - 1.5</u>
<u>4.5x</u> = <u>22.5</u>
4.5 4.5
x = 5
(x, y) = (5, 1)
