Express the ratio 25 to 5cm in its lowest terms​

Answer:

5:1 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's look at the ratio in fraction form, since ratios are easier to think about in this mathematical way:

25:5=\frac{25}{5}

Now we have a fraction which is easier to work with. We can look for a common factor of 25 and 5 and then factor it out to find the lowest terms of our ratio and the simplified version of the fraction. One common factor of 25 and 5 that I can think of is 5 itself. So, let's divide both sides by 5.

\frac{25}{5} ÷ 5\\ = \frac{5}{1}

Does that make sense? 25 divided by 5 is 5, and 5 divided by 5 is 1. So the simplified version of the fraction is \frac{5}{1}, and the lowest terms of the ratio 25:5 cm is 5:1 cm.

Hopefully that makes sense! If you need more help or any of that was confusing or difficult to understand, let me know. :)

Answer:

5:1

Step-by-step explanation:

25/5=1/n

cross multiply

5×1=25×n

5=25n

divide both sides by the cofficient of n

therefore, 25/5 which is equal to 5:1

The correct question is
<span>Peyton is a sprinter who can run the 40-yard dash in 4.5 seconds. He converts his speed into miles per hour, as shown below
</span>Which ratio is incorrectly written to convert his speed? 

the picture in the attached figure

we know that
The term (5280 ft/1 mi)  is incorrect
"Feet"<span> needs to be on the bottom to cancel with the previous term. 
</span>"Mile"<span> needs to be on top in the numerator so that the answer can be expressed in "miles per hour"
</span>
the correct term is (1 mi/5280 ft)

Solve the equation : 8+10^x=1008
Marizza181 [45]
Hi there.

I'm just going to put the answer for now. I might come back and edit my answer if I figure out how to solve this the long way.

All I did was figure out what exponent you raise 10 to. 

10³ = 1000

So, we now have 8 + 10³ = 1008

Edit:

I did it on paper - here it is broken down.

8 + 10^{x} = 1008

Subtract 8 from both sides.

10^{x} = 1000

We know that 10³ = 1000

<em>x</em> = 3

Andreas93 [3]

Given that Sienna planned a rectangular pool drawn on a scale 11 inches long by 7 inches wide, and Sienna used the scale drawing above to create a pool that is 14 ft wide x 22 ft long, and she then decided to make a pool with a final length of 33 ft, to determine which expression finds the change in scale factor for the longer pool Sierra is building the following calculation must be performed:

  • 11 inches = 0.916 feet
  • 11 / 0.916 = 12
  • 7 inches = 0.583333 feet
  • 7 / 0.5833333 = 12
  • Thus, the initial scale is 1:12.
  • 33 / 0.916 = 36

Therefore, the scale factor went from 1:12 to 1:36.

A billiard ball is struck by a cue. It travels 100 cm before ricocheting off a rail and traveling another 100 cm into a corner p
Airida [17]

Answer:

76.53 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, the triangle formed has 2 sides and an included angle ;

Angle, θ = C = 45°

We use cosine rule :

Taking the side to find as c

a = 100 ; b = 100

From cosine rule :

c = sqrt(a² + b² - 2abCosC)

c = sqrt(100² + 100² - 2(100*100)Cos45

c = sqrt(10000 + 10000 - 20000 * 0.7071067)

c = sqrt(20000 - 14142.135)

c = sqrt(5857.865)

c = 76.536690

c = 76.53 cm

I need help with this math problem.

<h3>Answer: Choice B) </h3><h3>-6x - 2y = 12</h3>

===============================================

Explanation:

The x intercept is (-2,0) which is where the graph crosses the x axis.

The y intercept is (0,-6) which is where the graph crosses the y axis.

-----

Find the slope of the line through those two points

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (-6-0)/(0-(-2))

m = (-6-0)/(0+2)

m = -6/2

m = -3

-----

The y intercept (0,-6) leads to b = -6

Both m = -3 and b = -6 plug into y = mx+b to get

y = mx+b

y = -3x+(-6)

y = -3x-6

-----

Now add 3x to both sides

y = -3x-6

y+3x = -3x-6+3x

3x+y = -6

-----

Lastly, multiply both sides by -2 so that the "-6" on the right hand side turns into "12" (each answer choice has 12 on the right hand side)

3x+y = -6

-2(3x+y) = -2(-6)

-2(3x)-2(y) = 12

-6x-2y = 12

which is what choice B shows.
