The answer is: No, because we also need to know the type of proportionality
In mathematics, we talk about proportionality when two variables are related and this relationship is that there is a constant ratio between them. There are two types of proportionality.
1. Direct Proportionality:
If there are two variables x and y, we can write the relationship between them as follows:
So, by substituting the point in this equation we have that the constant of proportionality is:
2. Inverse Proportionality:
In this case, the relationship is:
So, the constant of proportionality is:
As you can see, we have found two different values of the constant of proportionality. So, it is necessary to know the type of proportionality.
Answer:
approx. 44 km
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that :
5 miles ------> 8 km
we divide both sides by 5 to get the unit rate:
1 miles ------> 8/5 km
Therefore:
27.5 miles -----> 27.5 miles x (8/5) = 44 km
Do you have answer choices?
Part (i)
Plug in theta = pi/3 to get
h(theta) = sin(3theta)
h(pi/3) = sin(3*pi/3)
h(pi/3) = sin(pi)
h(pi/3) = 0 ... use a calculator or the unit circle
<h3>Answer: 0</h3>
=================================================
Part (ii)
Plug in h = pi/2
h(theta) = sin(3theta)
h(pi/2) = sin(3pi/2)
h(pi/2) = -1
<h3>Answer: -1</h3>
