Answer:

See answers below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following ratios. We are to express them in their simplest forms

15:12

= 15/12

= (3*5)/(3*4)

= 3/3 * 5/4

= 5/4

b) 42:1

= 42/1

= 42

Given that  2:x :: 4:6​

2/x = 4/6

Cross multiply

4x = 2*6

4x = 12

x = 12/4

x = 3

Hence the value of x is 3

To make 100g of jam you need 57g
asambeis [7]

Answer:

The ratio of blackberries to sugar is 13 : 56 or 13/56, which is already in the in the simplest form.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we have to make 100g of jam

so

  • Amount of strawberries = 57g
  • Amount of blackberries = 13g

Thus

The amount of sugar needs to be added to the mixture: 100 - (57 - 13) = 56g

Therefore, the ratio of blackberries to sugar is 13 : 56 or 13/56, which is already in the in the simplest form.

PLEASEE HELPP ME IM DESPERATE​
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

I can help with Q "4" as -

It uses triangle congruence test -  here we use - SAS, as

one side is equal as it is given

both the  angles are 90 degree

and they share a same side

so -

8x = 6x + 5

8x - 6x = 5

2x = 5

x = 2.5

RU = 6x+ 5 = 6 (2.5) + 5 = 20

( I am not so sure but I think this is the answer )

The sides of a triangle are 1, x, and x2. what are possible values of x?
Whitepunk [10]
The sides of the triangle are given as 1, x, and x².

The principle of triangle inequality requires that the sum of the lengths of any two sides should be equal to, or greater than the third side.

Consider 3 cases
Case (a):  x < 1,
      Then in decreasing size, the lengths are 1, x, and x².
      We require that x² + x ≥ 1
      Solve x² + x - 1 = 
      x = 0.5[-1 +/- √(1+4)] = 0.618 or -1.618.
      Reject the negative length.
     Therefore, the lengths are 0.382, 0.618 and 1.

Case (b): x = 1
   This creates an equilateral triangle with equal sides
    The sides are 1, 1 and 1.

Case (c): x>1
  In increasing order, the lengths are 1, x, and x².
  We require that x + 1 ≥ x²
  Solve x² - x - 1 = 0
  x = 0.5[1 +/- √(1+4)] = 1.6118 or -0.618
  Reject the negative answr.
 The lengths are 1, 1.618 and 2.618.

Answer:
The possible lengths of the sides are
(a) 0.382, 0.618 and 1
(b) 1, 1 and 1.
(c) 2.618, 1.618 and 1.
