A metal measuring tape expands when the temperature goes above . For every degree Fahrenheit above 50, its length increases by 0.00064%. The temperature is 100 degrees Fahrenheit. How much longer is a 30-foot measuring tape than its correct length? (How much did the tape measure expand by?)


What is the percent error?

6 equilateral triangles

unless you made a typo, the answers are both a and c.

step-by-step explanation:

1.5/3 is .5 whereas 3/9 is .3333333 not proportional

22/33 is .66666 and 4/6 is also .66666 proportional

2/4 is .5 whereas 142/213 is .66666 not proportional

14/7 is 2 and 7/3.5 is also 2 proportional

you could've also checked it by doing this simple division:

if the larger fraction divides with the smaller fraction to equal 1, it is proportional. so let me show you what i mean:

when i divide 22/33 by 4/6 i get 1, so we know it is proportional, and it is the same with 14/7 and 7/3.5. now if i divide 3/9 by 1.5/3 i get .66666 so therefore we know it is not proportional.

there are many ways to do this so i wanted to show you some possible ways.

yes they are the same
