Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio's can be expressed as fractions and you may compare those.
In order to compare fractions you need to bring them into equal denominator.
8 and 9 have LCM of 8*9 = 72 since they have no common factors.
<u>The equivalent fractions with common denominator are:</u>
- 5/8 = 9*5/(9*8) = 45/72
- 7/9 = 8*7/(8*9) = 56/72
<u>Now we can compare the fractions:</u>
- 45/72 < 56/72, since 45 < 56
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the numbers be x and y.
<u>The equations are:</u>
<u>Add up the equations to eliminate y and solve for x:</u>
- x - y + 2x + y = 2 + 13
- 3x = 15
- x = 15/3
- x = 5
<u>Now find the value of y:</u>
- y = x - 2
- y = 5 - 2
- y = 3
Answer:
4,344 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Mt. P is 1,086 feet tall. It says that Mt. Q is 4 times that. 1,086 x 4 is 4,344.
Answer:
Venus is often named as Earth's twin because both worlds share a similar size, surface composition and have an atmosphere with a complex weather system. ... Both planets have almost the same size and density and Venus is only a 30% closer to the Sun than Earth.
Step-by-step explanation:
A vertical asymptotic is a point at which y approaches positive or negative infinite, or both, and y is undefined at that x value.
Of the options, the reciprocal has a vertical asymptote. When approaches zero, y approaches 1÷0, or infinite.
The logarithmic function also has a vertical asymptote at x=0. Let's use f(x) =log base 10 (x) as an example. This function describes the exponent you'd have to put on 10 to get x. When x=0, we have a bit of a problem. What power can you raise 10 to to get 0? The answer is negative infinite, which would be
1/ (10^∞) = 0.
