What is the relationship between the ratios? 16/72 and 8/32 Drag and drop to complete the statement. The ratios are . proportion
Yuki888 [10]
These ratios are not proportional.

Explanation:

If the ratio 8:32 were simplified, it would equal 1:4 because they can both be divided by 8. But since 16 x 4 does not equal 72, they cannot be divided by 4 to make a simplified ratio such as the first example.

An engineering crew ran several tests on a new automobile engine they were designing. The mean fuel consumption was 52.4 miles p
zhenek [66]

Any value which is more than 2 standard deviations away from the mean is considered to be "unusual."  

2 standard deviations above the mean 52.4 mp would be 52.4+2(1.8), or 56; 2 std devs below the mean would be 52.4 - 2(1.8), or 48.8.  Thus, any value larger than 56 or any value smaller than 48.8 would be "unusual."

54.8, 49.1 and 51.3 are not unusual; 56.5 is unusual, because it's greaster than 56.
