To determine which coordinate pair maintains the same ratio as the given point (1, 2), we need to compare the ratios.
A ratio is the relationship between two numbers that is usually expressed as a fraction (a/b), with "a" being the first term and "b" being the second term. To keep the same ratio, the fractions formed by the x-coordinate and y-coordinate from each pair must equal the ratio formed by the original point (1, 2).
Here's the ratio for the given point:
Ratio of (1, 2): 1/2
Now, let's compare this ratio to the ratio for each option in the question:
1. Ratio of (6, 4): 6/4 = 3/2
This does not match the ratio of 1/2.
2. Ratio of (8, 4): 8/4 = 2/1
This is the reciprocal of 1/2 and does not match the original ratio.
3. Ratio of (4, 10): 4/10 = 2/5
This does not match the ratio of 1/2.
4. Ratio of (3, 8): 3/8
This does not match the ratio of 1/2 either.
5. Ratio of (4, 6): 4/6 = 2/3
This does not match the ratio of 1/2.
None of the options provided have the same ratio as the point (1, 2). For a ratio to be equivalent to 1/2, if you double one term, you must also double the other term. The coordinate pairs given are not multiples of (1, 2), and so none of them have the same ratio.
If it's a typo, and the correct options were to have a coordinate pair that follows the same ratio as (1, 2), we would need a point where the x-coordinate and the y-coordinate have the same relationship as 1 to 2. For example:
- (2, 4) would be correct because 2/4 is equivalent to 1/2.
- (5, 10) would also be correct because 5/10 reduces to 1/2.
But out of the given options, we cannot choose a coordinate pair with the ratio equivalent to 1/2.

Apologies for the confusion. It looks like there was a misunderstanding in your previous message regarding the comparison. Let's clear this up and compare the pairs correctly.
To maintain an equivalent ratio, let's use cross-multiplication to test the different coordinate pairs against the given point.
Given point:
(1, 2) - where 1 is the x-coordinate and 2 is the y-coordinate.
The simplified ratio is 1/2.
Now, let's compare each pair:
1. (6, 4) - The ratio is 6/4, which simplifies to 3/2. This is not equivalent to 1/2.
2. (8, 4) - The ratio is 8/4, which simplifies to 2/1 or just 2. This is not equivalent to 1/2.
3. (4, 10) - The ratio is 4/10, which simplifies to 2/5. This is not equivalent to 1/2.
4. (3, 8) - The ratio is 3/8. We can cross-multiply to check the equivalence to the ratio 1/2.
Let's compare 1/2 and 3/8 by cross-multiplication:
1 * 8 = 2 * 3,
8 = 6.
The relationship between 8 and 6 is not the same as between 1 and 2, so the ratio is not equivalent to 1/2.
5. (4, 6) - The ratio is 4/6, which simplifies to 2/3. This is not equivalent to 1/2.
None of the given coordinate pairs maintain a ratio equivalent to 1/2. It seems there might be a mistake in the question or options provided, as there should be a pair where the ratio of x to y is 1 to 2. If the options given are correct, then there is no correct answer among them.
I NEED ONE awnser
or my mom will get mad
I apologize for the confusion. Let's re-examine the pairs correctly.
We're looking for a pair of coordinates (x, y) where the ratio of x to y is the same as the ratio 1 to 2.
Here are the pairs again:
(6, 4)
(8, 4)
(4, 10)
(3, 8)
(4, 6)
Given the pair (1, 2), the ratio is 1/2. Now we need to find the pair that maintains this ratio.
Let's establish equivalency using cross-multiplication or simplifying the fractions:
1. (6, 4) - When we simplify the fraction 6/4, we get 3/2. This does not match the ratio 1/2.
2. (8, 4) - When we simplify the fraction 8/4, we get 2/1, which is the reciprocal, not the same ratio.
3. (4, 10) - When we simplify the fraction 4/10, we get 2/5. This does not match the ratio 1/2.
4. (3, 8) - To check if 3/8 is equivalent to 1/2, we can cross-multiply:
(1 * 8) = (2 * 3)
8 != 6
Therefore, 3/8 is not equivalent to 1/2.
5. (4, 6) - Simplify the fraction 4/6 to see if it equals 1/2. Simplifying 4/6 gives us 2/3 after dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2. This does not match the ratio 1/2.
Unfortunately, even after reviewing the pairs a second time, none of them exactly match the desired ratio of 1 to 2. However, if we must choose one, we should pick the pair that comes closest to the ratio:
If we judge by which fraction is closest to 1/2 when simplified, (6, 4) simplifies to 3/2 or 1.5 in decimal form, which is further from 0.5 (a decimal representation of 1/2) compared to the other pairs.
(4, 6) simplifies to 2/3, which is approximately 0.6666 in decimal form, and is closer to 0.5 than 1.5.
Thus, if you need to pick the closest option, even though it doesn't exactly match the 1/2 ratio, you would pick:
(4, 6)
Remember to communicate this to a teacher or supervisor if you feel there is an error or confusion in the original question.
ok 4,6 or 6,4
I understand the urgency for a single answer to this question. Of the given options, the pair (6, 4) is the one that seems closest to an equivalent ratio to (1, 2) if we are considering cross-multiplication.
When we simplify the ratio 6/4, we can reduce it by dividing both numbers by their greatest common divisor, which is 2:
6/4 simplifies to (6÷2)/(4÷2) which is 3/2.
Now, 3/2 is not equal to 1/2.
However, if we perform cross-multiplication for equivalence checking in the form of `a/b = c/d`, where you cross-multiply `a*d` and `c*b`:
For (1, 2) and (6, 4):
1 * 4 = 2 * 6
4 ≠ 12
It's still not equivalent, but since the ratios in the other pairs are further from 3/2 than from 2/3, the pair (6, 4) can be considered the closest to an equivalent ratio.
Thus, if you absolutely must choose an answer from the given options, and there has been no mistake in the problem statement or the answers provided, I suggest:
(6, 4)
Please note, picking (6, 4) is done under the assumption that there is a requirement to choose from the given pairs, and none of them actually have the equivalent ratio to (1, 2). If this is for a class or homework assignment, you may want to discuss this with your teacher as none of the pairs given exactly fits the criteria of the same ratio as (1, 2).

For this question, we need to determine which coordinate pair will plot on the coordinate plane and maintain the same ratio as a given reference ratio. However, the reference ratio, such as (1, 2) from the previous question, isn't provided in this question.
In the case of the ratio (1, 2), we're looking for coordinate pairs where the x-coordinate is half the y-coordinate. Let's examine the given pairs under the assumption that we're keeping with the (1, 2) ratio, as no other reference ratio is provided:
1. (9, 15) - We simplify 9/15 by dividing both numbers by 3: 9/15 = 3/5. This is not equivalent to 1/2.
2. (10, 14) - Simplifying 10/14 by dividing both numbers by 2 results in 5/7. This is not equivalent to 1/2.
3. (10, 15) - To find if 10/15 is equivalent to 1/2, we simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 5: 10/15 = 2/3. This is not equivalent to 1/2.
4. (15, 10) - Simplifying 15/10 by dividing both numbers by 5 results in 3/2, which is the reciprocal of 1/2. This is also not equivalent.
If we were to identify which pair has an equivalent ratio to (1, 2), none of the above pairs qualify.
If, alternatively, the reference ratio was not (1, 2), but instead we were to assume the reference to be the first pair (9, 15) or a similar pair, then we would need to keep a ratio of 9 to 15, which simplifies to 3 to 5. With this new assumption, let's look at the pairs again:
1. (9, 15) - This ratio simplifies to 3/5 and would be equivalent to itself, so if this is our reference pair, then it obviously maintains the equivalent ratio.
2. (10, 14), (10, 15), (15, 10) - None of these match the 3/5 simplified ratio.
Without a reference pair provided in your question, I can't determine which pair to plot to maintain an equivalent ratio. If (9, 15) was the intended reference pair, then it would maintain the ratio as it is. If there's a different reference ratio, please provide it so I can assist you properly.
