There are square tiles arranged in a pattern. the pattern has rows that are 5 tiles wide and an unknown number of rows. if you t

ake these tiles and add one additional tile, you can create a pattern that has rows that are 3 tiles wide, with 3 more total rows than the original pattern. how many are in the original pattern?

An equation is formed of two equal expressions. The number of rows in the original pattern will be 4.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is formed when two equal expressions are equated together with the help of an equal sign '='.

Let the number of rows be represented by x. Now, the pattern has rows that are 5 tiles wide and an unknown number of rows. if you take these tiles and add one additional tile, you can create a pattern that has rows that are 3 tiles wide, with 3 more total rows than the original pattern. Therefore, we can write,

(Number of Tiles before) + 1 tile = (Number of Tiles afterward)

5x + 1 = 3(x+3)

5x + 1 = 3x + 9

5x - 3x = 9 - 1

2x = 8

x = 4

Hence, the number of rows in the original pattern will be 4.

A farmer fills his field proportionately with soybeans and corn. Last year he planted 200 acres of corn and 50 acres of soybeans
malfutka [58]

Answer:

Part A)  Is a directly proportional

Part B) The constant of proportionality is k=0.25

Part C) The equation is y=0.25x

Part D) 62.5  acres of soybeans

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) Are the number of acres of corn and the number of acres of soybeans directly proportional or inversely proportional?

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form y/x=k

Let

x-----> the number of acres of corn

y---->  the number of acres of soybeans

so

y/x=k  

if the number of acres of corn increases then the number of acres of soybeans increases

if the number of acres of corn decreases then the number of acres of soybeans decreases

therefore

The relationship is a directly proportional

Part B) What is the constant of proportionality?

we have that

For x=200, y=50

substitute

y/x=k

k=50/200

k=0.25

Part C) Let x equal the number of acres of corn and y equal the number of acres of soybeans. Write an equation to show this relationship.

The linear equation that represent the direct variation is equal to

y/x=k

we have

k=0.25

substitute

y/x=0.25

y=0.25x

Part D) How many acres of soybeans can the farmer plant this year if he plants 250 acres of corn?

For x=250

Find the value of y

substitute in the linear equation the value of x and solve for y

y=0.25(250)=62.5 -----> acres of soybeans
