You are comparing apples to oranges in a fruit bowl. Is the ratio 2:3 the same as the ratio 3:2?
alexira [117]

Answer:

No, the two ratios are not the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

When we are saying "apples to oranges", mathematically it means:

\frac{Apples}{Oranges},

Which could be 2:3 or 3:2, which in fractional from are written as \frac{2}{3} and \frac{3}{2} respectively.

We see that

\frac{2}{3} \neq \frac{3}{20}.

In words the ratio 2:3  says "for every two apples there are three oranges", and 3:2 says "for every three apples there are two oranges". Again we see that  the two sentences are not saying the same thing, therefore the ratio 2:3 is not same as 3:2.

nalin [4]

Answer:

6in...8in...and...10in

Two sides must use the pythagoras theorem to obtain the hypothenus

square root of 8 squared plus 6 squared so as to obtain a 10...hence making it a right angled triangle

Suzy found the difference of x and 4 and then divided by 2. Write an algebraic expression to represent this word phrase.
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer: \dfrac{(x-4)}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

In algebra , We use algebraic expression to represent word phrase.

For example : 7 is added to p is written as " 7+p "

-8 is multiplied by p  is written as " -8p "

The statement : Suzy found the difference of x and 4 and then divided by 2.

First we express the difference of x and 4 as (x-4)

Then, we express entire statement : "difference of x and 4 and then divided by 2" =\dfrac{(x-4)}{2}

Hence, the algebraic expression to represent this word phrase:  \dfrac{(x-4)}{2}

Find The Slope &amp;&amp; Y-Intercept Of The Graph ...<br><br>Y = 6x + 11
Licemer1 [7]
The slope is the term that follows the x, so...

\boxed{\boxed{slope=6}}

now, the interception of Y happens when the X is equal 0, then...

y=6x+11

y=6*0+11

\boxed{\boxed{y=11}}

X=15-y<br> y=13-z<br> z=12-x
Ksju [112]

Answer:

x = 7; y = 8; z = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 15 - y

y = 13 - z

z = 12 - x

The first equation is solved for x. Substitute x in the third equation with 15 - y from the first equation.

z = 12 - (15 - y)

z = 12 - 15 + y

z = y - 3       (Equation 1)

Now substitute y - 3 for z in the original second equation.

y = 13 - z

y = 13 - (y - 3)

y = 13 - y + 3

2y = 16

y = 8

Substitute 8 for y in Equation 1.

z = y - 3

z = 8 - 3

z = 5

Substitute 5 for z in the original third equation.

5 = 12 - x

-7 = -x

x = 7

Solution: x = 7; y = 8; z = 5
