Answer:

The integer -37 represents the direction and the distance covered by Jose from Gainesville to Ocala.

Step-by-step explanation:

The direction is represented by the sign that accompanies the distance, since Jose is returning from Gainesville, then the direction must represented by a minus sign (-), since he is travelling southwards. The distance is the magnitude of the length covered by Jose during his return. Hence, distance is represented by the natural number 37.

Finally, the integer -37 represents the direction and the distance covered by Jose from Gainesville to Ocala.

Tlaloc pumped up 56 balls. He pumped up 5 dodge balls for every 9 other balls.

We simplify 5:20 and 9:36 as 1:4

Since they are both equal to 1:4, the total ball ratio should also be equal to 1:4

x:56 = 1:4
(x:14) : (56:14) = 1:4
(x:14) : 4 = 1:4

So, x : 14 = 1
x = 1.14 = 14.
