Answer:

4 : 3 > 7 : 9

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to compare two ratios or fractions, we make their denominators equal and then equate their numerators.

4 : 3 =  \frac{4}{3}  =  \frac{4 \times 3}{3 \times 3}  =  \frac{12}{9}  \\  \\ 7 : 9 =  \frac{7}{9} \\  \\  \because \: 12 > 7 \\  \\  \therefore \:  \frac{4}{3} > \frac{7}{9} \\  \\  \implies \: 4 : 3  > 7 : 9

Geometry question plz help me!
denis23 [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Any linear equation can be written as y = mx + b

The point will determine b

The slope (m) is found by this formula for a perpendicular line

m1 * m2 = - 1

m1 = -1/m2

m1 = -1/(-2/3)

m1 = 3/2

So our equation looks like

y = 3/2 x + b

Now we use the point (4,-8)

-8 = 3/2 (4) + b

-8 = 3(2) + b

-8 = 6 + b

b = - 14

The answer is

y = 4/2 - 14

Write the equation of a parabola with a vertex and (-5, 2) and a directrix y = -1
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

y=(x+5)²/6 + 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distance formula to plug in the values you know:

√(y+1)² =√(x+5)² +( y-2)²

the square roots cancel out

(y+1) ²= (x+5)² +(y-2)²

(y+1) (y-1)= (x+5)² + (y-2) (y-2)

y²+2y+1= (x+5)² + y² -4y+4

the y² cancel out

2y+ 4y = (x+5)² + 4-1

6y= (x+5)² +3

y= (x+5)² /6+ 1/3

Part A: The coefficients (numbers) are 75 and 25, while the variables (letters) are x and y.

Part B: There are two terms, meaning that this expression is a <em>binomial</em>. The two terms are <em>75x</em> & <em>25y</em>

Part C: The term in the expression that shows the total earned from pizzeria is 75x, which, when simplified, will give you the pizzeria term.

hope this helps
