Answer:
8:3
16:6
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's check if 9 and 24 have any common factor. If they do have any common ones, we must find the GCF (greatest common factor).
Factors of 9: 1, 3, 9
Factors of 24: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24
The common factors both of the numbers share and 1 and 3. To find the GCF, simply compare one of the factors to the other.
1 < 3
Now that we know the GCF, we can divide the two numbers in the ratio 24 : 9 by it (3).
24:9
24/3:9/3
<u>8:3</u>
Now that our ratio is simplified, it's going to be much easier to find more ratios that are equivalent. <u>8:3</u> is already one equivalent ratio, but if we multiply each number in the ratio by any other number, we can get a new equivalent ratio. Let's multiply each number in the ratio by 2:
<u>8:3</u>
8 ⋅ 2:3 ⋅ 2
<u>16:6</u>
<u></u>
So, another equivalent ratio to 24:9 (and <u>8:3</u>) is <u>16:6</u>.
Answer:
By exterior angle theorem, we have;
∠DBE = ∠H + ∠HEB = ∠ECD = ∠H + ∠HDC
∴ ∠H + ∠HEB = ∠H + ∠HDC
By addition property of equality, we have
∠HEB = ∠HDC
∠H = ∠H by reflexive property
∴ ΔHCD ~ ΔHEB by Angle Angle AA similarity postulate
∴ HE/HD = EB/DC, by the definition of similarity
Therefore, by cross multiplication, we have;
HE × DC = EB × HD
Therefore, by commutative property of multiplication, we have;
HE × DC = HD × EB
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct answer would be A -2b ^^
HTH ^^
Brainliest would be great is possible! ^^
A negative times a negative is always a positive so the answer would be positive.
