2500 X 15 = 37500
37500 ÷ 100 = 375
375 + 200 = 575
The answer is C.

The easiest way to answer this question is by going through each answer one by one:
14:6 = 28:18
28 <span>÷ 14 = 2
</span>18 <span>÷ 6 = 3
</span>Since both numbers were multiplied by different numbers, we can establish that this is not a true proportion.
42:7 = 6:2
42 ÷ 7 = 6
7 ÷ 7 = 1
42:7 = 6:1
By dividing both numbers by the same number, we can establish that the answer is wrong.
2:3 = 3:2
This is obviously wrong. That is because, in ratios, the order counts. So the first 3 is more than the first 2, therefore the second number on the other side of the ratio should be more than the first.
3:5 = 12:20
12 <span>÷ 3 = 4
</span>20 <span>÷ 5 = 4
</span>Since both numbers were multiplied by the same number, this is a true proportion.
The answer is D.
4x + 8
To distribute, multiply 4 by x and 4 by 2.
Answer:
It costs $0.216 to make smaller can and $0.324 to make larger can
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The ratio of the surface areas = 4:9
Area of smaller cans = 36 sq in
Cost = $0.006 per square inch
To Find:
how much does it cost to make each can = ?
Solution:
Lets the area of the larger can be x
the ratio is 4 : 9
then 4x = 9.(36)
4x = 216

x = 54
The area of the larger can is 54 sq in
Now the cost of making the smaller can =
= $0.216
The cost of making the Larger can =
=$0.324
