Michelle is having a poster printed from a picture that is 4 inches wide by 6 inches tall. The enlarged poster is 20 inches wide
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

Option 2: \frac{4}{6} = \frac{20}{30}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Width of picture = 4 inches

Length of picture = 6 inches

Now

Width of poster = 20 inches

Length of poster = 30 inches

The proportion of the picture will be:

\frac{width}{length} = \frac{4}{6}

Similarly the proportion of poster can be written as:

\frac{width}{length} = \frac{20}{30}

Both proportions when combined can be written as:

\frac{4}{6} = \frac{20}{30}

Hence,

The correct answer is:

Option 2: \frac{4}{6} = \frac{20}{30}

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First problem:

blank 2) on the left: PR = PQ + QR

blank 3) on the right: Replace PR in statement 1) with what we just completed in statement 2. Therefore:

2PQ = PR

2PQ = PQ + QR

blank 4) on the right: Subtract PQ from both sides, therefore

2PQ = PQ + QR

2PQ - PQ = PQ + QR - PQ

PQ = QR
