Determine whether the ratios 8 : 7 and 15 : 14 are equivalent

I believe they are not equivalent

Step-by-step explanation:

To compare ratios, you need to have a common second number. By multiplying each ratio by the second number of the other ratio, you can determine if they are equivalent. Multiply both numbers in the first ratio by the second number of the second ratio.

Hope this helps!

step-by-step explanation:

points a and b are equidistant from the desired line, so the line you find by using them will go through point r.

using points other than a and b will give the desired line only if they are equidistant from r. if they are randomly located, the perpendicular line you create will not necessarily go through point r, hence will not be a solution to the problem.
