22 6.3 Proportions Objectives Slide 5.3- 22 1.Write proportions. 2. Determine whether proportions are true or false. 3. Find cross products. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved.

23 Slide 5.3- 23 A proportion states that two ratios (rates) are equivalent. The rate $20/4 hr is equivalent to $40/8 hr. As the amount of money doubles, the number of hours also doubles. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved.

24 Write each proportion. a.3 ft is to 9 ft as 12 ft is to 36 ft. b. $8 is to 3 cans as $32 is to 12 cans Parallel Example 1 Writing Proportions Slide 5.3- 24 Common units divide out and are not written. The units do not match so you must write them in the proportion. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved.

25 Determine whether each proportion is true or false by writing both ratios in lowest terms. a. b. Parallel Example 2 Writing Both Ratios in Lowest Terms Slide 5.3- 25 The proportion is false since the ratios are not equivalent. The proportion is true since the ratios are equivalent.

26 Slide 5.3- 26 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved.

27 Use cross products to see whether each proportion is true or false. a. Parallel Example 3 Using Cross Products Slide 5.3- 27 Multiply along one diagonal, then multiply along the other diagonal. 9  12 = 108 4  27 = 108 Equal cross products; proportion is true.

39 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Parallel Example 2 continued Solving Proportions with Mixed Numbers and Decimals Slide 5.4- 39 Equal 10.4 ∙ 8.06 = 83.824 12.4 ∙ 6.76 = 83.824 The cross products are equal, so 8.06 is the correct solution.

40 6.5 Solving Application Problems with Proportions Objectives Slide 5.5- 40 1.Use proportions to solve application problems. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved.

41 Slide 5.5- 41 A proportion can be used to solve a wide variety of problems. Use the six problem-solving steps you learned in a previous section. Six Problem-Solving Steps Step 1 Read the problem. Step 2 Work out a plan. Step 3 Estimate a reasonable answer. Step 4 Solve the problem. Step 5 State the answer. Step 6 Check your work. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved.

42 Step 1 Read the problem. The problem asks for the number of circuit boards James can process in 252 minutes. Step 2 Work out a plan. Decide what is being compared. This example compares circuit boards to minutes. Write a proportion using the two rates. Be sure that both rates compare circuit boards to minutes in the same order. Parallel Example 1 Solving a Proportion Application Slide 5.5- 42 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. On an assembly line, James can process 30 circuit boards in 108 minutes. At that rate, how many circuit boards can he process in 252 minutes?

43 On an assembly line, James can process 30 circuit boards in 108 minutes. At that rate, how many circuit boards can he process in 252 minutes? Step 3 Estimate a reasonable answer. Notice that 252 minutes is a little more than twice as much as 108 minutes, so James should process more than twice as many circuit boards. So use 2 30 = 60 circuit boards as our estimate.

44 On an assembly line, James can process 30 circuit boards in 108 minutes. At that rate, how many circuit boards can he process in 252 minutes? Step 4 Solve the problem. Ignore the units while solving for x. Parallel Example 1 Solving a Proportion Application Slide 5.5- 44 Show that cross products are equivalent. Divide both sides by 108.

45 On an assembly line, James can process 30 circuit boards in 108 minutes. At that rate, how many circuit boards can he process in 252 minutes? Step 5 State the answer. James can process 70 circuit boards in 252 minutes. Step 6 Check your work. The answer, 70 circuit boards is a little more than the estimate of 60 circuit boards, so it is reasonable.

46 Step 1 Read the problem. The problem asks for the number of voters who will support the levy. Step 2 Work out a plan. You are comparing people who support the school levy to all the voters in town. Parallel Example 2 Solving a Proportion Application Slide 5.5- 46 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. A local paper reported that 4 out of 5 voters surveyed stated that they supported the school levy. At that rate, how many of the 42,000 voters in town would you expect to support the school levy?

47 Step 3 Estimate a reasonable answer. To estimate the answer, notice that 4 out of 5 voters is more than half the total voters, but less than all the voters. Half of the 42,000 voters is 42,000 ÷ 2 = 21,000, so our estimate is between 21,000 and 42,000 voters.

A local paper reported that 4 out of 5 voters surveyed stated that they supported the school levy. At that rate, how many of the 42,000 voters in town would you expect to support the school levy?

48 Step 4 Solve the problem. Solve for the unknown number in the proportion. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Parallel Example 1 Solving a Proportion Application Slide 5.5- 48 Show that cross products are equivalent. Divide both sides by 5.

49 Step 5 State the answer. You would expect 33,600 voters to support the school levy. Step 6 Check your work. The answer, 33,600 voters is between 21,000 and 42,000, as called for in the estimate. Parallel Example 1 Solving a Proportion Application Slide 5.5- 49 Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. All rights reserved. A local paper reported that 4 out of 5 voters surveyed stated that they supported the school levy. At that rate, how many of the 42,000 voters in town would you expect to support the school levy?
