Which two ratios form a proportion?
Responses
A 12/15 and 5/4
B 15/12 and 5/4
C 6/5 and 4/5
D 5/6 and 4/5

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: We will determine if ratios are proportional using cross multiplication.

first, we will check option (a)

12/15 =5/4

12*4 = 15*5

48 is not equal to 75. So, these are not proportional.

now, we will check option (b)

15/12 = 5/4

15*4 = 12*5

60 = 60.

as the left-hand side is equal to the right-hand side.

So, option (b) is correct.

Answer 2

Answer:

[tex]\textsf{B)} \quad \dfrac{15}{12}\; \textsf{and}\;\dfrac{5}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If two fractions are equal, they form a proportion.

Therefore, to determine if two ratios form a proportion, rewrite the fractions so that their denominators are the same, then compare.

[tex]\textsf{A)}\quad \dfrac{12}{15}\; \textsf{and}\;\dfrac{5}{4} \implies \dfrac{12 \times 4}{15\times 4}\; \textsf{and}\;\dfrac{5\times 15}{4\times 15}\implies \dfrac{48}{60}\; \textsf{and}\;\dfrac{75}{60}[/tex]

As the two fractions are not equal, they do not form a proportion.

[tex]\textsf{B)} \quad \dfrac{15}{12}\; \textsf{and}\;\dfrac{5}{4}\implies \dfrac{15}{12}\; \textsf{and}\;\dfrac{5 \times 3}{4 \times 3}\implies \dfrac{15}{12}\; \textsf{and}\;\dfrac{15}{12}[/tex]

As the two fractions are equal, they form a proportion.

[tex]\textsf{C)} \quad \dfrac{6}{5}\; \textsf{and}\;\dfrac{4}{5}[/tex]

The denominators of these two fractions are already the same.

Therefore, as the two fractions are not equal, they do not form a proportion.

[tex]\textsf{D)} \quad \dfrac{5}{6} \; \textsf{and}\;\dfrac{4}{5}\implies \dfrac{5\times 5}{6\times 5} \; \textsf{and}\; \dfrac{4\times 6}{5\times 6}\implies \dfrac{25}{30}\; \textsf{and}\;\dfrac{24}{30}[/tex]

As the two fractions are not equal, they do not form a proportion.

A car is traveling on a small highway and is either going 55 miles per hour or 35 miles per hour, depending on the speed limits, until it reaches its destination 200 miles away. Letting x represent the amount of time in hours that the car is going 55 miles per hour, and y being the time in hours that the car is going 35 miles per hour, an equation describing the relationship is: 55x+35y=200


A: If the car spends 2.5 hours going 35 miles per hour on the trip, how long does it spend going 55 miles per hour?

B: If the car spends 3 hours going 55 miles per hour on the trip, how long does it spend going 35 miles per hour?

C: If the car spends no time going 35 miles per hour, how long would the trip take? Explain your reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

A. The car spends 2.05 hours going 55 miles per hour

B. The car spends 1 hour going 35 miles per hour

C. The trip takes 3.6 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is

55x+35y=200

Let's solve A

We know the car spends 2.5 hours going 35 miles per hour on the trip, so we put 2.5 in for y and solve for x

55x+35(2.5) = 200

55x + 87.5 = 200

55x = 112.8

x = 2.05 hours going 55 miles per hour

So, the car spends 2.05 hours going 55 miles per hour

Let's solve B

55(3)+35y=200

165 + 35y = 200

35y = 35

y = 1 hour

So, the car spends 1 hour going 35 miles per hour

Let's solve C

We know the car spends no time going 35 miles per hour, so we put 0 in for y and solve for x

55x+35(0)=200

55x = 200

x = 3.6  hours

So, the trip takes 3.6 hour

Write the equation of the line that is parallel to
y = 3x + 4 and passes through point (-2, 4).
y = 3x - 2
y = 3x + 8
y = 3x + 10

Answers

Answer:

y = 3x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope, so the line will have a slope of 3.

Plug in the slope and given point into y = mx + b, and solve for b:

y = mx + b

4 = 3(-2) + b

4 = -6 + b

10 = b

Plug in the slope and y intercept into y = mx + b

y = mx + b

y = 3x + 10

So, the equation of the line is y = 3x + 10

How do you solve an acute triangle using trigonometry?

Answers

An acute triangle is a triangle with all angles measuring less than 90°.

To solve an acute triangle using trigonometry, we need to know the length of at least one side and at least one angle of the triangle.

For example, let's assume the triangle has side lengths a = 6, b = 8, and we know the angle A = 30°.

First, we can use the Law of Cosines to calculate the length of the third side, c:

c² = a² + b² - 2abcos(A)

c² = 6² + 8² - 2(6)(8)cos(30°)

c² = 64 - 96cos(30°)

c² = 64 - 48

c² = 16

c = 4

Now we can calculate the other two angles, B and C, using the Law of Sines:

sin(B) = sin(A) * c/a

sin(B) = sin(30°) * 4/6

sin(B) = 0.5 * 2/3

sin(B) = 0.3333

B ≈ 19.47°

sin(C) = sin(A) * c/b

sin(C) = sin(30°) * 4/8

sin(C) = 0.5 * 0.5

sin(C) = 0.25

C ≈ 14.04°

Therefore, the three angles of the triangle are A = 30°, B = 19.47°, and C = 14.04°, and the three sides are a = 6, b = 8, and c = 4.

school has 8 periods a day each of 45 minutes’ duration. How long would each period be, if the school has 9 periods a day, assuming the number of school hours to be the same?

Answers

Answer:

40 min per period

Step-by-step explanation:

When it has 8 periods :

Total time = 45 min per period for 8 period

Total time = 45 × 8 min

When it has 9 periods : let each period be of x min

Total time = x min per period for 9 period

Total time = x × 9 min

As total time remains same,

45 × 8 = x × 9

5 x 8 = x

What is  sector of circle?

A circular sector, also known as circle sector or disk sector, is the portion of a disk enclosed by two radii and an arc, where the smaller area is known as the minor sector and the larger being the major sector.

What is length of arc?

For a circle, the arc length formula is θ times the radius of a circle.

 Arc Length = 2 π r (θ/360°)  

where,

r = radius of circle

θ = angle of Sector

According to the question

Arc Length of circle = 16.3 yd

Angle of sector= 240°

By using arc length formula

Arc Length = 2 π r (θ/360°)  

substituting the value

16.3 = 2π r (240°/360°)

16.3 = 2π r * [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

16.3 * 3 = 4π r

54.9 = 4π r

As π = [tex]\frac{22}{7}[/tex]

54.9 = 4 *  [tex]\frac{22}{7}[/tex] r

54.9 * 7 = 88 r

By unitary method 24 students/(64/9) yards squared times 1600 yards squared equals 5400 students.

What is unitary method ?

The unit technique is an approach to problem-solving that involves first determining the value of a single unit, then multiplying that value to determine the required value. The unit method, to put it simply, is used to extract a single unit value from a supplied multiple. For instance, 40 pens would cost 400 rupees, or the price of one pen. The process for doing this may be standardized. a single country. anything that has an identity element. (mathematics, algebra) (Linear algebra, mathematical analysis, mathematics of matrices or operators) Its adjoint and reciprocal are equivalent.

Students traverse a total area of 40 yards by 40 yards, or 1600 yards.

24 kids covered an area of 8 ft x 8 ft, or (8 ft x 1 yd/3 ft)2 = [(8/3) yard]2 = (64/9) yd.

The number of students present is calculated by multiplying the number of students per yard, or 24 students/(64/9) yd2, by the area that students cover.

After diving the polynomials, the quotient and remainder is q(x)=-x^2+1 and r(x)=-1 respectively.

What are polynomials?

The word "polynomial" is derived from the Greek words "poly" and "nominal," which combined translate to "many phrases." There is no limit to the number of terms that can exist in a polynomial.

The polynomials are -

a(x)=-x^4

b(x)=x^2+1

Divide a(x) by b(x).

-x^4/x^2+1 = -x^2+1 with remainder as -1.

The quotient is obtained as q(x)=-x^2+1 and the remainder is r(x)=-1.

The given equation is -

a(x)/b(x)=q(x)+[r(x)/b(x)]

Plugging in all the values -

-x^4/x^2+1=-x^2+1+[-1/x^2+1]

[-x^4/x^2+1]-[-1/x^2+1]=-x^2-1

-x^4+1/x^2+1=-x^2-1

-x^4+1=[-x^2+1][x^2+1]

-x^4+1=(-x)^2[x^2+1]+(1)[x^2+1]

-x^4+1=-x^4-x^2+x^2+1

-x^4+1=-x^4-1

So, LHS=RHS is proved using the equation.

Therefore, the quotient is q(x)=-x^2+1 and the remainder is r(x)=-1.
