Answer:

No multiplying both quantities in the ratio 60 : 36 by 1  would not give the answer .

But multiplying both quantities in the ratio 60 : 36 by 1/6  would solve it.

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying any number or ratio by 1 gives the same answer no matter what the expression or how much bigger the number is.This will not give the solution .

If it is multiplied with a fraction like 1/6  that would give the correct answer.

Multiplying it with 1/6 reduces the ratio and gives a better estimate.

A:B

60:36

60*1/6: 36*1/6

10: 6

Meaning that for a total of 16 there are 10 of category A and 6 of category B.

But if we do the same procedure with the answer is same which does not solve the question.

A:B

60:36

60*1: 36*1

60: 36

How many intersections are there of the graphs of the equations below? x + 5y = 6 3x + 30y = 36 none one two infinitely many Mar
denpristay [2]
I believe the answer would be the second option. The equations given above when graph would intersect only once with each other. They intersect at only point (0,6/5). These are the values of x and y that will agree to the equation. Two equations in a set will always intersect at only one point.

Write a power that has a value greater than 340 and less 345
valina [46]

For this case we must write a power between (340,345)

We chose 343.

We divide the number until we get an exact division:

\frac {343} {2} = 171.5\\\frac {343} {3} = 114.3\\\frac {343} {4} = 85.75\\\frac {343} {5} = 68.6\\\frac {343} {6} = 57.17\\\frac {343} {7} = 49\\

So we have:

7 ^ n = 343\\n = 3

So, the power is:

7 ^ 3 = 7 * 7 * 7 = 49 * 3 = 343

ANswer:

7 ^ 3 = 7 * 7 * 7 = 49 * 3 = 343

A waiter at a restaurant has diarrhea what should happen?
Vilka [71]
The waiter should go home. It is because it is improper with regards to food safety and pathogenic bacteria such as E.coli can contaminate the food. Though the productivity of the restaurant will decrease, food safety must come first to reduce customer complaints.
