Solve a proportion EXAMPLE x 30 = Write original proportion. Multiply each side by = x Simplify. 55 = x Divide x 30 = x Solve the proportion 11 6 =.

EXAMPLE 2 w = Write original proportion. Multiply each side by = w Simplify. w = 20 Divide. w = Solve the proportion. Check your solution. GUIDED PRACTICE for Example w 35 =. 3.3.

EXAMPLE m 12 = Write original proportion. Multiply each side by = m Simplify. 54 = m Divide. 9 2 m 12 = Solve the proportion. Check your solution. GUIDED PRACTICE for Example 2 m =. 4.4.

EXAMPLE 2 z = Write original proportion. Multiply each side by = z Simplify. z = 30 Divide. z = Solve the proportion. Check your solution. GUIDED PRACTICE for Example z 54 = 5.

Solve a multi-step problem EXAMPLE 3 ELEVATORS The elevator that takes passengers from the lobby of the John Hancock Center in Chicago to the observation level travels 150 feet in 5 seconds. The observation level is located on the 94th floor, at 1029 feet above the ground. Find the time it takes the elevator to travel from the lobby to the observation level.

Solve a multi-step problem EXAMPLE 3 SOLUTION STEP 2 Solve the proportion. Write a proportion involving two ratios that compare the amount of time the elevator has ascended with the distance traveled. STEP 1 x 1029 = 5 Seconds 150 feet

Solve a multi-step problem EXAMPLE x 1029 = Write proportion =1029 x Multiply each side by = x Simplify = x Use a calculator. ANSWER The elevator travels from the lobby to the observation level in 34.3 seconds.

Solve a multi-step problem EXAMPLE 3 You can use a table to check the reasonableness of your answer CHECK The solution, 34.3 seconds, is slightly less than 35 seconds, and 1029 feet is slightly less than 1050 feet. So, the solution is reasonable.

GUIDED PRACTICE for Example 3 WHAT IF ? In Example 3, suppose the elevator travels 125 feet in 5 seconds. Find the time it will take for elevator to travel from the lobby to the observation level. 6.

EXAMPLE 3 SOLUTION STEP 2 Solve the proportion. Write a proportion involving two ratios that compare the amount of time the elevator has ascended with the distance traveled. STEP 1 GUIDED PRACTICE for Example 3 5 Seconds x = 125 feet 1029

EXAMPLE x 1029 = Write proportion =1029 x Multiply each side by = x Simplify = x Divide. ANSWER The elevator travels from the lobby to the observation level in seconds. GUIDED PRACTICE for Example 3
