Set up a proportion and solve it to demonstrate this type of business application. (An example might be 5 hours / $20 = 10 hours / x). Your post should include all the steps involved in solving for your variable and explanations where needed (introducing your proportion and what it represents and an explanation of the solution.). Remember that setting the cross products (multiplications) equal, and then solving for x is the way to solve a proportion.

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem could be

A person earns $20 for working 5 hours.

How much will a person earn if they work 10 hours?

using proportion

Multiply in cross

divide by 5 both sides

answer: the two figures are congruent.

step-by-step explanation: they're congruent because figure efgh is reflected across the x and y axis but it was also rotated.

hope it !

stew reads at the fastest rate of 265 words per minute.

step-by-step explanation:

it's a given that felicia reads at 260 word per minute and on connie's graph we can see that she reads 200 words per minute. since stew's table tells us that he read 795 in 3 minutes, we can divide 795 by 3 to find out how many words he reads per minute.

795/3 = 265

stew reads 265 words per minute - he reads at the fastest rate since felecia reads at 260 words per minute and connie reads at 200 words per minute.

stew (265) > felecia (260) > connie (200)
