============================================================
Explanation:
Your teacher is effectively asking "are the fractions 19/8 and 5/4 equal?"
Let's assume for now that they are. So we have 19/8 = 5/4
To check if that is a true equation, let's cross multiply
19/8 = 5/4
19*4 = 8*5
76 = 40
The last equation is not true, so the first equation is also not true. The ratios are not in proportion.
---------------------------
Alternative method:
Instead of cross multiplying, we can get all the fractions to have the same denominator. The LCD (lowest common denominator) of the two given fractions is 8. Let's turn 5/4 into a fraction with 8 in the denominator.
We'll multiply top and bottom by 2 to get 5/4 turning into 10/8
Now we're asking "are 19/8 and 10/8 the same?" in which the answer is "no they are not the same". The numerators 19 and 10 are different. The fraction 19/8 is larger than 10/8. So 19/8 is larger than 5/4.
---------------------------
2nd Alternative method:
Use your calculator to see that
19/8 = 2.375
5/4 = 1.25
The decimal values should be the same if the fractions were equal, but they are not. This is a very quick way to compare two fractions.

how much dose the least expensive 50 present of trail mix cost? what is the least of 4 pounde of trail mix can cost
The box-whisker plot is missing. Check the attachment for the data.
The least expensive 50% of trail mix costs between $1.25 and $2.75 per pound, as these, depict the minimum point and the median (50% of data), of the given box-whisker plot.
The least 4 pounds of trail mix can cost $6.00, at the minimum rate shown in the box-whisker plot by its starting point of $1.25 per pound.
What is a box-whisker plot?A box-whisker plot is a diagrammatic representation of data. The whiskers start from the minimum data and go up to the maximum. In between the whiskers is a box that starts from the first quartile of the data (below which 25% of the data lies) and goes up to the third quartile (below which 75% of the data lies). In between the box is a line, that indicates the median of the data. The median is the value of the middlemost data.
How to solve the given question?In the question, we are given a box-whisker plot, showing the different costs of trail mix at different prices per pound.
1. We are asked how much the least expensive 50% of trail mix costs.
We know that 50% of data is depicted at the median which is the line in between the box in a box-whisker plot. So the least expensive 50% is shown before the line.
The minimum point in the data is $1.25 and the median is $2.75.
Hence, the least expensive 50% of trail mix costs between $1.25 and $2.75 per pound, as these depict the minimum point and the median (50% of data), of the given box-whisker plot.
2. We are asked to find the least cost of 4 pounds of the trail mix.
We know that the starting point of the whisker shows the minimum point in the data. Hence, the least cost of the trail mix is $1.25 per pound.
So, the cost of 4 pounds is $1.25 * 4 = $6.00.
Hence, the least 4 pounds of trail mix can cost $6.00, at the minimum rate shown in the box-whisker plot by its starting point of $1.25 per pound.

Point T is on line segment \overline{SU} SU . Given TU=4x+1,TU=4x+1, SU=8,SU=8, and ST=3x,ST=3x, determine the numerical length of \overline{TU}. TU .
Answer:
5Step-by-step explanation:
If point T is on the line SU, then ST+TU = SU. Given TU=4x+1, SU=8, and ST=3x
Substituting the given values into the expression ST+TU = SU
8 = 3x+4x+1
8 = 7x+1
collect like terms;
7x = 8-1
7x = 7
Divide through by 7
7x/7 = 7/7
x = 1
Substitute x = 1 into the expression TU = 4x+1 to get the length of TU
TU = 4(1)+1
TU = 4+1
TU = 5
Hence the length of TU is 5

Answer:
[tex]u<-1\text{ or } u>2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
So we have the equation:
[tex]-3|2-4u|+5<-13[/tex]
First, subtract -5 from both sides:
[tex]-3|2-4u|<-18[/tex]
Divide both sides by -3. Since we are dividing by a negative, we will flip the sign:
[tex]|2-4u|>6[/tex]
Definition of absolute value:
[tex]2-4u>6\text{ or } 2-4u<-6[/tex]
Note that we flip the sign on the right because we multiplied 6 by a negative.
On both the left and right, subtract 2:
[tex]-4u>4\text{ or } -4u<-8[/tex]
Divide both equations by -4. Since we're dividing by a negative, flip the signs:
[tex]u<-1\text{ or } u>2[/tex]
So, our final solution is:
[tex]u<-1\text{ or } u>2[/tex]
And we're done!

A ramp is 35 ft long rises to a platform. The bottom is 15 ft from the foot of the ramp. Find x, the angle of elevation of the ramp. Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a degree.
Answer:
The angle of elevation of the ramp is 64.60°
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
length of the ramp, L = 35 ft
distance of the platform to the foot of the ramp, d = 15 ft
The length of the ramp forms the hypotenuse side of this right angled triangle;
The angle of elevation of the ramp is in angle between the hypotenuse and adjacent side of the triangle.
Cos x = adjacent / hypotenuse
Cos x = 15 / 35
Cos x = 0.4286
x = Cos⁻¹ (0.4286)
x = 64.62
x = 64.60°
Therefore, the angle of elevation of the ramp is 64.60°
Convert 15°C to °F (to the nearest tenth).
15°c = 59°f
because :
(15 °C × 9/5) + 32 = 59 °F
===
so to the nearest tenth its doing 60°f

Point J is on line segment IK. Given IK = 15 and JK = 6, determine the
length IJ.
Answer:
[tex]\huge\boxed{IJ = 9}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that J is on line segment IK.
So, it is like:
I______?_______J___6___K
|<--------------------15---------------->|
We know that:
IK = IJ + JK
Where IK = 15 and JK = 6
15 = IJ + 6
Subtracting 6 to both sides
IJ = 15 - 6
IJ = 9
