the (-) in front is just a short way to put (-1)
Answer:
the last box represents a set of data
So, there's total 8 inches and the customer wants to make 4.5 inches long.
Each time he press the reduce button is 12%. He pressed 5 times, so.
12 x 5 = 60%
60% of the 8 = is 4.8 inches
So the conclusion is that his boss is wrong.
STAN walk 10 km to the grocery store.
He stops then walks 10 km east back to his house.
Let us draw this situation to better understand the problem.
As you can see, Stan first walked to the grocery store and covered a distance of 10 km then he came back to the house from the grocery store and covered a distance of 10 km.
So the total distance is 10 + 10 = 20 km
On the other hand, notice that Stan is exactly at the point where he first started that is his house, therefore, the displacement is 0 in this case.
Recall that the displacement is a vector quantity so the direction of travel also matters.
From house to grocery store = 10 km
From the grocery store to house = -10 km
Overall displacement = 10 km - 10 km = 0 km
Therefore,
Distance = 20 km
Displacement = 0 km
Answer:
They are equal
Step-by-step explanation:
When comparing ratios, we simply want to find out if the numbers are greater than, less than, or equal to each other. We have 4:5 and 16:20.
To find out the comparison;
Step 1: We find the LCM of the denominators ie 5 and 20, which is 20
Step 2: We divide the LCM by both sides, like this: 20÷5=4 and 20÷20=1.
Step 3: Now, multiply each ratio by the result of its individual denominator division ie

Step 4: Convert back to ratio form, we have: 16:20 and 16:20
From the above ratios, we have found out that 4:5 and 16:20 are equal when compared.
I hope this helps.
