Answer:

C is the answer

3 :1 and 9 :3

Step-by-step explanation:

a :b :: c:d = $\frac{a}{b}$ = $\frac{c}{d}$

3 :1 and 9 :3

= $\frac{3}{1}$ and $\frac{9}{3}$

3:1 :: 9:3 = $\frac{3}{1}$ = $\frac{9}{3}$

3 = 3 so these two ratios are proportional

or another method is find the cross multiplication

$\frac{3}{1} = \frac{9}{3}$

i.e 3 × 3 = 9 × 1

9 =9

so these two ratios are proportional

Two drivers are exploring the bottom of a trench in the Pacific Ocean. Dominic is at 175 feet below the surface of the ocean and

mestny [16]

$\huge\boxed{\text{Dominic}}$

In this problem, $0$ represents the sea level. Since Dominic is $175$ feet below the surface (sea level), his current location is at $-175$ feet.

The same concept can be applied to Karen, who is at $-138$ feet.

We need to find who is lower, or farther below $0$ . This means the answer is $\boxed{\text{Dominic}}$ .

Dario bakes a lasagna containing 2/3 pound of parmesan cheese, 5/4 pounds of ricotta cheese, and 4/3 pounds of mozzarella cheese

kap26 [50]

First, we have to figure out how much cheese we have total. Do this by adding up all of the various cheeses.

$\frac{2}{3} + \frac{4}{3} + \frac{5}{4} \\ \frac{6}{3} + 1 + \frac{1}{4} \\ 3 \frac{1}{4}$
Now to split the cheeses into sections of 1/4 pound each, we have to divide by 1/4, which is the same as multipling by 4

$3 \frac{1}{4} \times 4 = 12 + 1 = 13$

13 slices total

How much of a radioactive kind of thorium will be left after 14,680 years if you start with

babymother [125]

Answer:

8978 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation to find the half-life is:

$N(t)= N_{0}e^{-kt}$

N(t) = amount after the time <em>t</em>

$N_{0}$ = initial amount of substance

t = time

It is known that after a half-life there will be twice less of a substance than what it intially was. So, we can get a simplified equation that looks like this, in terms of half-lives.

$N(t)= N_{0}e^{-\frac{ln(\frac{1}{2}) }{t_{h} } t}$ or more simply $N(t)= N_{0}(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{1}{t_{h} } }$

$t_{h}$ = time of the half-life

We know that $N_{0}$ = 35,912, t = 14,680, and $t_{h}$ =7,340

Plug these into the equation:

$N(t) = 35912(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{14680}{7340} }$

Using a calculator we get:

N(t) = 8978

Therefore, after 14,680 years 8,978 grams of thorium will be left.

How many different triangles can you make that have angels 60˚, 60˚, 60˚ ?

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

Infinite

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle that has all 60-degree angles is equilateral, which means that all side lengths are the same. However, there are infinite possibilities for the side lengths!

I hope this helped, please give brainliest if this is correct! Thank you!
