Answer:
<h3>7:1</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the weight of mr nazeer be x
Let the weight of his son be y
If the weight of mr nazeer is 7 times that of his son, then x = 7y
To get the ratio of their weight:
Ratio = weight of father/weight of son
Ratio = 7y/y
Ratio = 7/1
Ratio = 7:1
Hence the ratio of their weights is 7:1
To write a percent as a decimal, first remember that a percent is a ratio that compares a number to 100. Let's say we wanted to convert 82% to a decimal. We can think of 82% as the ratio 82 to 100 or 82 ÷ 100. When we divide by 100, it moves the decimal point 2 places to the left so 82 ÷ 100 would move the decimal point 2 places to the left which would give us .82. Therefore, 82% would = 0.82.
Y - 63 = 1/2 (x - 64) (distribute 1/2)
y - 63 = 1/2x - 32 (add 63 to both sides)
y = 1/2x + 31 (this is your answer)
