Answer:

1. Three ways to write Ratios are : in form of fraction, in form of decimals. Consecutively, they can also be written in form of percentage.

2. Divide the numerator by the denominator. The resulting decimal number is the unit rate.

3. A ratio table is a structured list of equivalent (equal value) ratios that helps us understand the relationship between the ratios and the numbers. Rates, like your heartbeat, are a special kind of ratio, where the two compared numbers have different units.

    Ex: Ben 1 glass of milk for every 2 cookies that he eats. We can use this ratio to begin a ratio table. If Ben drinks 2  glasses of milk, then he eats 4 cookies.

          Glasses of milk     Cookies

                        1                     2

                        2                    4

Notice that both of the ratios in the ratio table are equivalent

      1/2=2/4

If Ben drinks 4 glasses of milk, then he eats 8 cookies.

             Glasses of milk     Cookies

                        1                      2

                        2                     4

                        4                     8

Notice that all of the ratios in the ratio table are equivalent:

1/2=2/4=4/8

4. Write 32% as  32 /100

Since, finding the fraction of a number is same as multiplying the fraction with the number, we have

32 /100  of 150 =  32 /100  × 150

Therefore, the answer is 48

If you are using a calculator, simply enter 32÷100×150 which will give you 48 as the answer.

5. A ratio is a comparison of two numbers or measurements. The numbers or measurements being compared are sometimes called the terms of the ratio. A rate is a special ratio in which the two terms are in different units.

Hope that helps :)

what is the slope of a line parallel to the line whose equation is y=2/3x+7 fully simplify your answer
Olin [163]

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

When a line is parallel to another, it means that there are never going to be any solutions(they won't ever intersect each other.) To do so, the slope of the lines have to be the same. It doesn't matter what the y-intercept is.

So the slope of the second line is going to be the same as the first line: 2/3

Question 3 Please. I'm really stuck :(
Stells [14]
Let ∠RTS=∠RST = a (say)
 ∠QUA=∠QSU= b(say)
then we know , at point S, a+40+b=180. so, a+b=140 we'll use this later.

consider trianglePQR, ∠P+∠Q+∠R=180
i.e.P+(180-2b)+(180-2a)=180
P+180+180-2(a+b)=180 ⇒P+180-2(a+b)=0 ⇒P=2(140)- 180=280-180=100
hence,answer is E

scott started his banking account with $150 and is spending $7 per day on lunch. this situation models which type of function ​
Zina [86]

Answer:

linear function:  y = -7x + 150

Step-by-step explanation:

Scott's situation represents a linear function because he is spending $7 each day on lunch.  His initial amount in his bank account is $150 and each day he spends the same rate on lunch, $7.  So, for any amount of days - represented by 'x' in the equation, you would multiply by -7 (since he is spending) and subtract this amount from his original amount of $150.  In this equation, 'y' is equal to his total after 'x' amount of days.
