Aspect Ratio Movie and television screens range in shape from almost perfect squares to wide rectangles. An aspect ratio describes a screen by comparing its width to its height. Common aspect ratios are 4:3, 37:20, 16:9, and 47:20.
= 1.3 = 1.4 Divide. = 47 20 13 9 23 10 4 3 4 3 1.3 1 The decimals in order are 1.3, 1.4, 2.3, and 2.35. Example: Ordering Ratios A. Order the ratios 4:3, 23:10, 13:9, and 47:20 from the least to greatest. 4:3 = 23:10 = = 2.3 13:9 = 47:20 = = 2.35 The ratios in order from least to greatest are 4:3, 13:9, 23:10, and 47:20.
20 15 5(4) 5(3) 4 3 20 15 The ratio can be simplified: = = . Additional Example: Ordering Ratios B. A television has screen width 20 in. and height 15 in. What is the aspect ratio of this screen? The ratio of the width to the height is 20:15. The screen has the aspect ratio 4:3.
= 0.6 = 1.6 Divide. = 49 20 5 3 35 14 2 3 2 3 0.6 1 The decimals in order are 0.6, 1.6, 2.45, and 2.5. Try This A. Order the ratios 2:3, 35:14, 5:3, and 49:20 from the least to greatest. 2:3 = 35:14 = = 2.5 5:3 = 49:20 = = 2.45 The ratios in order from least to greatest are 2:3, 5:3, 49:20, 35:14.
36 20 4(9) 4(5) 9 5 36 20 The ratio can be simplified: = = . Try This B. A movie theater has a screen width 36 ft. and height 20ft. What is the aspect ratio of this screen? The ratio of the width to the height is 36:20. The screen has the aspect ratio 9:5.
Ratio and Rate A ratio is a comparison of two quantities. A rate is a comparison of two quantities that have different units. 90 3 Ratio: Read as “90 miles per 3hours.” 90 miles 3 hours Rate:
90 3 The ratio can be simplified by dividing: Unit Rate Unit rates are rates in which the second quantity is 1. 90 3 30 1 = 30 miles, 1 hour unit rate: or 30 mi/h
Example: Using a Bar Graph to Determine Rates Use the bar graph to find the number of acres, to the nearest acre, destroyed in Nevada and Alaska per week. 640,000 acres 52 weeks Nevada = 12,308 acres 1 week
Example Continued Use the bar graph to find the number of acres, to the nearest acre, destroyed in Nevada and Alaska per week. 750,000 acres 52 weeks Alaska = 14,423 acres 1 week
Try This Use the bar graph to find the number of acres, to the nearest acre, destroyed in Montana and Idaho per week. 950,000 acres 52 weeks Montana = 18,269 acres 1 week
Try This Continued Use the bar graph to find the number of acres, to the nearest acre, destroyed in Montana and Idaho per week. 1,400,000 acres 52 weeks Idaho = 26,923 acres 1 week
Unit Price Unit price is a unit rate used to compare costs per item.
Example: Finding Unit Prices to Compare Costs Pens can be purchased in a 5-pack for $1.95 or a 15-pack for $6.20. Which is the better buy? Divide the price by the number of pens. price for package number of pens $1.95 5 = $0.39 price for package number of pens $6.20 15 = $0.41 The better buy is the 5-pack for $1.95.
price for jar number of ounces price for jar number of ounces Example: Finding Unit Prices to Compare Costs Jamie can buy a 15oz jar peanut butter for $2.19 or a 20 oz jar for $2.78. Which is the better buy? Divide the price by the number of ounces. $2.19 15 = $0.15 $2.78 20 = $0.14 The better buy is the 20-oz jar for $2.78.
Try This Golf balls can be purchased in a 3-pack for $4.95 or a 12-pack for $18.95. Which is the better buy? Divide the price by the number of balls. price for package number of balls $4.95 3 = $1.65 price for package number of balls $18.95 12 = $1.58 The better buy is the 12-pack for $18.95.
price for bottle number of ounces price for bottles number of ounces Try This John can buy a 24 oz bottle of ketchup for $2.19 or a 36 oz bottle for $3.79. Which is the better buy? Divide the price by the number of ounces. $2.19 24 = $0.09 $3.79 36 = $0.11 The better buy is the 24-oz jar for $2.19.
Lesson Quiz 1. At a family golf outing, a father drove the ball 285 ft. His daughter drove the ball 95 ft. Express the ratio of the father’s distance to his daughter’s in simplest terms. 2. Find the unit price of 6 stamps for $2.22. 3. Find the unit rate of 8 heartbeats in 6 seconds. 4. What is the better buy, a half dozen carnations for $4.75 or a dozen for $9.24? 5. Which is the better buy, four pens for $5.16 or a ten-pack for $12.90? 3:1 $0.37 per stamp 1.3 beats/s a dozen They cost the same.
