Answer:

K=4

Y=16

X=4

Step-by-step explanation:

$y = kx {}^{2} \\ finding \: k \: when \: y= 36 \: and \: x = 3 \\ 36 = k(3) {}^{2} \\ 36 = 9k \\ dividing \: through \: by \: 9 \\ \frac{36}{9} = \frac{9k}{9} \\ 4 = k \\ k = 4 \\ findnig \: y \: when \: x = 2 \\ y = 4(2) {}^{2} \\ y = 4 \times 4 = 16 \\ finding \: x \: when \: y = 64 \\ 64 = 4 \times x \\ 64 = 4x \\ dividing \: through \: by \: 4 \\ \frac{64}{4} = \frac{4x {}^{2} }{4} \\ 16 = x {}^{2} \\ square \: root \: bothsides \\ \sqrt{16} = x {}^{2} \\ 4 = x \\ x = 4$

Leah has The flowers shown she wants to put them in 4 vases with the same number in each case how many flowers does she need to

dsp73

Answer:

The solution is obtained by dividing the number of flowers by the number of vases.

Step-by-step explanation:

The story problem is very straightforward. Normally, you need to read the problem and understand it.

Let's look at the question again.

Although we do not have all the quantities, we can still show how to solve the problem.

Let x be the total number of flowers.

There are 4 vases.

Therefore, the number of flowers in each vase will be:

x/4

Flow the same rule for similar problems.

The diameter of cold virus cell is about 3x10-9 meter,and the diameter of a streptoccus bacterium cell is about 9x10-7 meter. Wh

Archy [21]

Here we need to compare the orders of magnitude of two measures.

We will see that the bacteria is 300 times larger than the virus.

We know that:

The diameter of the virus-cell is:

$D_v = 3 \cdot 10^{-9} m$

The diameter of the bacteria cell is:

$D_b = 9 \cdot 10^{-7} m$

So, to compare them, first notice that both are in the same units, meters, so we only need to compare the numbers.

Is common sense to identify the one with the largest exponent as the largest number, and the largest exponent is -7, thus the bacteria should be the larger one.

But let's prove this with math, remember the property:

$\frac{a^n}{a^m} = a^{n - m}$

Let's take the quotient between the diameters and see what we get, I will use the diameter of the bacteria in the numerator, thus if the quotient is larger than 1, it would mean that the bacteria is greater and by how much.

$quotient = \frac{ 9 \cdot 10^{-7} m}{ 3 \cdot 10^{-9} m} = \frac{9}{3} \cdot 10^{-7 + 9}\\\\= 3*10^2$

So we can say that the bacteria is 3*10^2 = 3*100 = 300 times larger than the virus.
