The amount that needs to be changed = 6.60 pounds
The ratio in which the given amount needs to be divided = 5:6
Let us assume the common ratio to be = x
Then
5x + 6x = 6.60
11x = 6.60
x = 6.60/11
   = 0.6
So
The ratio for dividing 6.60 in the ratio 5:6 will be = 5 * 0.6: 6 * 0.6
                                                                             = 3:3.6
This is the simplest way to to find the ratio of the amount 6.60 pounds. I hope you have understood the procedure.

A box contains 225 marbles which are either red or blue. there are 31 more blue marbles than red marbles. how many blue marbles
Mkey [24]

Let x represent the number of red marbles, then blue marbles are represented by x + 31

red +  blue  = 225

x    +  x + 31  =  225

2x + 31 = 225

2x = 194

 x = 97

Blue: x + 31 = 97 + 31  = 128

Answer: 128 blue marbles

On a number​ line, the coordinates of​ X, Y,​ Z, and W are ​, ​, ​, and ​, respectively. Find the lengths of the two segments be
Arturiano [62]

Complete Question:

On a number​ line, the coordinates of​ X, Y,​ Z, and W are −8​, −5​, 4​, and 6​, respectively. Find the lengths of the two segments below. Then tell whether they are congruent. \overline{XY} and \overline{ZW}

Answer:

\overline{XY} = 3

\overline{ZW} = 2

They are not congruent

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of segment XY:

Coordinate of X = -8

Coordinate of Y = -5

\overline{XY} = |-8 -(-5)| = |-8 + 5| = 3

Length of ZW:

Coordinate of Z = 4

Coordinate of W = 6

\overline{ZW} = |4 - 6| = 2

\overline{XY} ≠ \overline{ZW}, therefore, they are not congruent.

In triangle FGH, FG = 12.3 cm, GH = 10.6 cm, Measure of angle G = 80 degrees, and Measure of angle H = 55 degrees. If Triangle A
aalyn [17]

Question:

In triangle FGH, FG = 12.3 cm, GH = 10.6 cm, m angle G=80 degrees, and m angle H=55 degrees. If triangle ABC GHF, which statement is true?

(A) AB = 12.3 cm

(B) AB = 10.6 cm

(C) m∠C = 55°

(D) m∠C = 80°

Answer:

Option B:

AB = 10.6 cm

Solution:

The image of the triangle is attached below.

In ΔFGH,

FG = 12.3 cm, GH = 10.6 cm, m∠G = 80° and m∠H = 55°

Option A: AB = 12.3 cm

Given ΔGHF \sim ΔABC.

Corresponding parts of congruence triangles are congruent.

GH = AB = 10.6 cm

So, option A is not true.

Option B: AB = 10.6 cm

Already proved in option A that AB = 10.6 cm

So, option B is true.

Option C: m∠C = 55°

ΔGHF \sim ΔABC

Corresponding parts of congruence triangles are congruent.

m∠G = m∠A = 80°

m∠H = m∠B = 55°

Sum of the angles of a triangle = 180°

⇒ m∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 180°

⇒ 80° + 55° + m∠C = 180°

⇒ m∠C = 180° – 80° – 55°

⇒ m∠C = 45°

So, option C is not true.

Option D: m∠C = 80°

Already proved in option C that m∠C = 45°.

So, option D is not true.

Hence option B is the true statement that AB = 10.6 cm.
