Short Answer: 1.5
Givens
OA = 12
OB = 9
O does not lie on AB
Argument
The order that these lines must be in is OBA. O is on your left, B is in the middle and A is on your right.
Mark your distances as follows.
OB = 9
BA = 3
Mark the midpoint of OA = M1
Mark the midpoint of OB = M2
M1 = 12 / 2 = 6 so M1 is 6 units from O
M2 = 9/2 = 4.5
The distance between the two midpoints is 6 - 4.5 = 1.5
Answer M1 - M2 = 1.5 <<<<
Nice problem: Thanks for posting.
Answer:
5:2
Step-by-step explanation:
Start with what the question is asking for, which is the ratio of math problems to minutes.
With ratios "to" also means ":", so you can change it to math problems : minutes.
Then, substitute the numbers for the labels. Math problems = 10 and minutes = 4, so now you have 10:4
Lastly, to simplify the ratio, find the greatest common factor, in this case 2, and divide both sides, which gives you your answer 5:2
You are correct. Good job. The correct answer would be that she should have 16 orange carnations and 8 yellow carnations.
