Solving proportions is simply a matter of stating the ratios as fractions, setting the two fractions equal to each other, cross-multiplying, and solving the resulting equation. You'll probably start out by just solving proportions, like this: Find the unknown value in the proportion: 2 : x = 3 : 9.
82.14 will be rounded down to 80, 38.5 will be rounded up to 40, and 41.3 will be rounded down to 40.
80 + 40 + 40 = 160
The approximate sum is 160.
He should have subtracted the discount and added the sales tax
Correlation coefficient is always between -1 and +1. So it cannot be +2.3
Pythagorean Theorem: a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a = 6
c = 9
b = ?
6^2 + b^2 = 9^2
36 + b^2 = 81
b^2 = 81 - 36
b^2 = 45
b = sqrt(45)
b = 6.71 miles
