Step 1:

Write the formula connecting y and x.

\begin{gathered} y\text{ }\propto\text{   x} \\ y\text{ = kx} \\ k\text{ = }\frac{y}{x} \end{gathered}

Step 2:

Find the value of k when y = 12 and x = 9

\begin{gathered} k\text{ = }\frac{y}{x}\text{  =  }\frac{12}{9}\text{   =  }\frac{4}{3} \\ \text{Therefore} \\ y\text{ = }\frac{4}{3}x \end{gathered}

Step 3

You can find x when y = 80.

\begin{gathered} \text{Frpm y = }\frac{4}{3} \\ \text{When y = 80} \\ 80\text{ = }\frac{4x}{3} \\ \text{Cross multiply} \\ 4x\text{ = 80}\times3 \\ 4x\text{ = 240     Divide both sides of the equation by 4} \\ x\text{ = }\frac{240}{4} \\ x\text{ = 60} \end{gathered}

Final answer

x = 60

What is the value of r, the part of the job that Marina can complete in 1 hour?
EastWind [94]

Answer:

0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

so, Katherine can do 0.1 of the job per hour. (if she needs 10 hours for the job, each hour she can do the whole divided by the time, so 1/10, which is 0.1)

if in two hours she and Marina can be done, then Marina will do 1(the whole job)-2/10 (twice as much as she can do in an hour)=0.8 of the job. So if Marina does 0.8 of the job in two hours, each hour she will do half of it: 0.4 - and this is the correct answer

The landscape artist who designed New York City’s
timama [110]

The landscape artist who designed New York City’s Central Park believed that providing scenic settings accessible to all would not only benefit the public’s physical and mental health <u>and also foster a sense of democracy. </u> (Option D: but also foster a sense of democracy).

<h3>What is sentence correction?</h3>

Sentence correction or sentence improvement is a type of grammatical practice where a sentence is given with a word or a phrase that requires grammatical changes or improvement.

Now,

  • When 'not only' is used, 'but also' must come after it. When utilizing a correlative conjunction like "not only," "but also," the goal should be parallelism, meaning that the words that come after both sides of the conjunction should be from the same part of speech.
  • Here, using 'and' after 'not only...' distorts the structure of the sentence.

Hence, Option D is the right response, i.e., The landscape artist who designed New York City’s Central Park believed that providing scenic settings accessible to all would not only benefit the public’s physical and mental health <u>and also foster a sense of democracy. </u> (Option D: but also foster a sense of democracy).
