Answer:

Yes, the ratio of friends who chose blue to the total asked is equivalent to the ratio of friends who chose green to the total asked.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be determined as follows:

For Alex, we have:

Number of people who prefer blue = 4

The total asked = 6

Therefore, the ratio of friends who chose blue to the total asked can be calculated as follows:

Ratio of friends who chose blue to the total asked = Number of people who prefer blue / The total asked = 4 / 6 = 0.67

For Jordan, we have:

Number of people who prefer green = 8

The total asked = 12

Therefore, the ratio of friends who chose green to the total asked can be calculated as follows:

Ratio of friends who chose green to the total asked = Number of people who prefer green / The total asked = 8 / 12 = 0.67

Conclusion

From the calculations above, we have:

Ratio of friends who chose blue to the total asked = Ratio of friends who chose green to the total asked = 0.67

Since the ratio of friends who chose blue to the total asked is equal to the ratio of friends who chose green to the total asked is equal to 0.67, it therefore implies that the ratio of friends who chose blue to the total asked is equivalent to the ratio of friends who chose green to the total asked.

The costs of 5 similar digital cameras and 3 similar video cameras is $3,213. Each video camera costs 4 times as much as each di
mariarad [96]
Let,
digital cameras be "x"
video cameras be "y"
Now,
According to the question,
5x + 3y = $3,213..................................................equation (1)
y = 4x..................................................................equation (2)

Taking equation (1)
5x + 3y = $3,213
Substituting the value of "y" from equation (2), we get,
5x + 3(4x) = $3,213
5x + 12x = $3,213
17x = $3,213
x = $3,213 / 17
x = $189

Taking equation (2)
y = 4x
Substituting the value of "x", we get,
y = 4 ($189)
y = $756

Now,
John buys a digital and a video camera. So, it costs him ($189 + $756) = $945
