Hello!
We can go through each answer to verify whether each is equivalent to 8 : 6.
4 : 3 is equivalent to 8 : 6 because reducing the ratio 8 : 6 by a factor of 2 yields 4 : 3.
6 : 8 is not equivalent to 8 : 6 because the ratio is reversed.
16 : 12 is equivalent to 8 : 6 because the ratio is increased by a factor of 2.
10 : 8 is not equivalent to 8 : 6. We can verify this by checking whether each term was scaled equally:
10 ÷ 8 = 1.25
8 ÷ 6 = 1.33. Therefore, they are unequal.
7 : 5 is not equal to 8 : 6 for the same reason.
The only correct choices are:
4 : 3 and 16 : 12.
With these transversals across parallel lines the angles are either congruent or supplementary (adding to 180) and its pretty easy to figure out which is which, obtuse verse acute in the figure.
Each yellow circle indicates x and the path to the next square. So for example the Start has alternate interior angles, which are congruent, so x is 141 degrees.
Question is Incomplete, Complete question is given below.
Latanya and George are saving up money because they both want to buy new bicycles. Latanya opened a savings account with $50. She just got a job and is determined to save an additional $30 a week. George started a savings account with $75. He is able to save $25 a week. Find the time (in weeks) when Latanya and George will have the same amount of money in their savings accounts.
Answer:
Latanya and George will have same amount after 5 weeks.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Opening Amount in account of Latanya = $50
Amount deposited every week = $30
Let number of week be 'w'.
Total Amount in Latanya savings account will be equal to Opening Amount plus Amount deposited every week multiplied by number of week.
framing in equation form we get;
Total Amount in Latanya savings account =
Also Given:
Opening Amount in account of George = $75
Amount deposited every week = $25
Let number of week be 'w'.
Total Amount in George savings account will be equal to Opening Amount plus Amount deposited every week multiplied by number of week.
framing in equation form we get;
Total Amount in George savings account =
Now we need to number of week when both will have same amount.
Now to find number of week when both will have same amount we need to make both the equation same we get;
Hence Latanya and George will have same amount after 5 weeks.
