3/4 can be converted to eighths by multiplying by 2/2 to get 6/8. 7/8 - 6/8 = 1/8 So 1/8 of a cup is for the topping.
Answer:
12 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
R(-3,2)
S(2,2)
T(2,-5).
The total length ;
Distance between two points : √[(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²]
Distance between R and S :
R = (-3,2)
S(2,2)
√[((2 - (-3))^2 + (2 - 2)^2]
Sqrt(5^2 + 0^2)
D1 = 5 units
Distance between S and T:
S(2,2)
T(2,-5).
D2 = √[(2 - 2)^2 + (-5 - 2)^2]
D2 = sqrt(0^2 + (-7)^2)
D2 = 7 units
Hence, total length = D1 + D2 = (5 + 7) = 12 units
Ok so it's a proportion so this fraction is to this fraction. the smaller rectangle has sides 4 and 12. the larger one has 8 and x. so u set it up 4/12=8/x. the 4 and 8 r both the short sides so u want those on top and 12 and x r long sides so those on bottom. since that is not an answer option u can set it up as 8/4=x/12 because u still keep the variables of the same rectangle from being multipled with each other. so answer #2 is correct
