Answer:

(a)k=44.245

(b)39820.50 PHP

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Part A</u>

Let the number of PHP =y

Let the number of USD =x

The number of Philippine Pesos(y) received is directly proportional to the number of US Dollars(x) to be exchanged.

The equation of proportion is: y=kx

If 550 USD can be converted into 24,334.75 PHP.

  • x=550
  • y=24,334.75

Substitution into y=kx  gives:

24,334.75=550k\\$Divide both sides by 550$\\k=24,334.75 \div 550\\k=44.245

The constant of proportionality k=44.245

<u>Part B</u>

The equation connecting y and x then becomes:

y=44.245x

If x=900 USD

Then:

y=44.245 X 900

y= 39820.50

Therefore, given that you have 900 USD to convert. You will receive 39820.50 PHP

A digital clock displays military time in hh:mm format. Find the probability that the number made up of the first two digits on
egoroff_w [7]

Answer: The probability that the number made up of the first two digits on the clock is less than 25 is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of an event is a number which describe the chances of the event will happen.

We know that on digital clock, the first two digits always show as number less that 25.

Therefore, the event that the number made up of the first two digits on the clock is less than 25 is certain.  [Since An event that is certain to happen has a probability of 1.]

Hence, the probability that the number made up of the first two digits on the clock is less than 25 is 1.

For which values of k does the system of linear equations have zero, one, or an infinite number of solutions? [Note: not all thr
viktelen [127]

Answer:

The system has an infinite solution at k = 6, otherwise for any value of k, it has zero solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the system of linear equations:

3x_{1} -x_{2}=2\;\;\;\;\;\;(1)\\ 9x_{1} -3x_{2}=k\;\;\;\;\;(2)

The system of linear equations can have zero, one, or an infinite number of solutions:

simplify equation (1):

x_{2}=3x_{1} -2

substitute in equation (2), we get

9x_{1} -3(3x_{1}-2)=k\\9x_{1} -9x_{1}+6=k\\0+6=k

we cannot find the value of x_{1} and x_{2}.

so, there is no solution.

Multiply the equation (1) with 3 and put k is 6,

3(3x_{1} -x_{2})=3\times2\\9x_{1} -3x_{2})=6

it means both equations are overlapped. Then, the solution has infinite solutions.

Hence, the system has an infinite solutions at k is 6 otherwise for any value of k it has no solution.
