Answer:
1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to find her current age. If she was 12 years old 3 years ago, her current age is 12 + 3 which is 15. If the ratio of Sarah's age to Keisha's age is 4:5 (Sarah's age is the 4 and Keisha's age is the 5).
If we take 15 and divide that by 5 (her ratio), then you get 3. Now multiply 3 by 4 to find Sarah's age. We get 12. Nine years from now, her age is 12 + 9 which is 21.
There is the answer. Sarah's age in 9 years is 21 years old. I hope this helps.
Answer:
x = 87
Step-by-step explanation:
the ratio SR / RV is equal the ratio ST / TU (both ratios are equal to 1), and the angle in the vertex S is the same for both triangles SUV and STR, so we can affirm that these triangles are similar (case S-A-S).
Then, we have that the ratio SR / SV is the same as RT / UV:
SR / SV = RT / UV = 1 / 2
RT * 2 = UV
2*(x - 37) = x + 13
2x - 74 = x + 13
x = 87

Step-by-step explanation:
I can't think of anything extra that I can add to this.
nickels / dimes = 21/13
This is as low as the ratio goes. There is no common factor.
Answer:
( x, y ) = ( 4, 1/3)
Step-by-step explanation:
x - 3y = 3
2x +9y = 11
1. substitute the value of x
x= 3 + 3y
2x + 9y = 11
2. solve equation
2 (3 + 3y) +9y = 11
3. substitute the value of y
y = 1/3
4. solve equation
x = 3 + 3 x 1/3
x = 4
5. check solution
(x, y) = ( 4, 1/3 )
check x ----> 4 - 3 x 1/3 = 3
check y ------> 2 x 4 + 9 x 1/3 = 11
for x----> 3=3
for y----> 11=11
