Given,

The number of paper clips used for 9 cm paper is 3.

Consider, the number of paper clips used for 15 cm paper,

By proportionality,

\begin{gathered} \frac{3}{9}=\frac{x}{15} \\ 3\times15=9\times x \\ \frac{45}{9}=x \\ x=5 \end{gathered}

Hence, the number of paper clips used for 15 cm of paper is equal to 5.

Nata [24]

Answer: 184

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of am arithmetic sequence is calculated as:

Nth term= a+(n-1)d

where a = first term

d = common difference

a = -10

d = -8 -(-10) = -8+10 = 2

98th term= a+(n-1)d

= -10 + (98-1)(2)

= -10 + (97×2)

= -10 + 194

= 184

The 98th term of the arithmetic sequence is 184

Write and then solve for the differential equation for the statement: "The rate of change of y with respect to x is inversely pr
lisabon 2012 [21]

Given that the rate of change of y with respect to x is inversely proportional to y². Its equation can be written as :-

\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{k}{y^{2}}

where 'k' is the proportionality constant, it can take any real value.

We can solve it by integrating the above equation with respect to x.

Rewriting and rearranging the terms of above equation :-

\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{k}{y^{2}}

y²·dy = k·dx

Integrating both sides :-

∫ y²·dy = ∫ k·dx

\frac{y^{3}}{3} = k·x

y³ = 3·k·x + C

where C is the constant of integration.

So, y³ = 3·k·x + C is the final answer.

What is the scientific notation of 0.00165?
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

The answer is 1.65*10^{-3}

Step-by-step explanation:

when writing scientific notation, there must be one number to the left of the decimal point.

To achieve this in this problem, you need to move the decimal point 3 times to the right.

because you are moving the point to the right, the exponent will be negative.

*rule of thumb: moving the decimal to the left will give you a positive exponent, moving to the right will give you a negative exponent*

therefore you answer should be written as:

1.65*10^{-3}

hope this helps :)
