Two jets leave an air base at the same time and travel in opposite directions. One jet travels 79 mi/h slower than the other. If the two jets are 10,904 miles apart after 8 hours, what is the rate of each jet?

let m = monomial

let t = trinomial

so, m times t = t.

monomial times a trinomial = another trinomial.

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.

lol! it is not weird, because that is how i feel when i get to know that there is a lot of people in one area or website at one time. i always want to make new friends! even if they are online friends.
