Answer: 8 inches to 2/3 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's set up ratios.
12 inches= 1 foot
Find the quotient of 1 divided by 2/3 which is 1.5.
Look at the attached picture to see the ratio handwork.
The answer is 8 inches to 2/3 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
the rate of change is officially
(f(x2) - f(x1)) / (x2 - x1)
but for a line function (as we have here) this is totally easy : it is the slope of the line.
and that means it is the factor of x.
in our case this is -3/2.
because the slope of a line is the ratio "y coordinate change / x coordinate change". and that is exactly corresponding to the general rate of change definition above.

12yd a=48sq yd (4×12=48)
Answer:
<em>It will take 9 years for the population to double</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Exponential Growth
</u>
The natural growth of some magnitudes can be modeled by the equation:

Where P is the actual amount of the magnitude, Po is its initial amount, r is the growth rate and t is the time.
The population of a city grows at a rate of r=8% = 0.08 per year. We are required to find when (t) the population will double, or P=2Po.
Substituting in the equation:

Simplifying:

Taking logarithms:

Applying the exponent property of logs:

Solving for t:

Calculating:

It will take 9 years for the population to double
Answer:
$4.80
Step-by-step explanation:
6 oranges for 1.80
sp 6 divided by 1.80 comes out to 0.3 per orange
0.3 times 16 comes out to 4.80
therefor $4.80
