From the given information, a exists jointly proportional to b and c.

then $$a \propto b c$

Therefore, the value of a exists 2.

<h3>What is the value of a?</h3>

Given, a exists jointly proportional to b and c.

$$a \propto b c$

Taking K as the constant of proportionality.

a = K b c

For b = 8 and c = 9, the value of a = 4

4 = K(8)(9)

4 = 72 K

Dividing the equation by 72, we get

$K=\frac{1}{18}

Using the value of K in the equation:

$a=\frac{b c}{18}

Substitute the values of b = 2 and c = 18, in the above equation

$a=\frac{2 \times 18}{18} \\

a = 2

Therefore, the value of a exists 2.

21 times 21 is 441

and 29 times 29 is 841

the formula to ge tthe answer is a^2 + b^2 = c^2

20^2 + 21^2= 29^2

There are 3 ladies for every 2 men qt a party if there are 40 men at the party how many ladies are at the party . show your work
Lynna [10]
Ok so the constant is 3:2 so if we do x for women then it would be x:40. To find x we do 40/2 which is 20 so then you multiply 20 to 3 to get the amount of women for every 40 men which is 60 women
B)60
40:60

Which shows the pre-image of triangle X’Y’Z’ before the figure is rotated 90° about the origin
Xelga [282]

Answer:

From the figure shown the coordinates of W'X'Y'Z' are W'(2, 3), X'(6, 3), Y'(6, 4) and Z'(3, 5)

The coordinates of the pre-image that yeilded W'X'Y'Z' according to the rule (-x, -y) can be obtained by changing the signs of the coordinates of W'X'Y'Z'.

Thus, the coordinates of the pre-image that yeilded W'X'Y'Z' are W(-2, -3), X(-6, -3), Y(-6, -4) and Z(-3, -5).

Therefore, the correct graph is graph c.
