Answer:
The answer is a= 
Step-by-step explanation:
Combine like terms and we get,
divide both sides of the equation by ax, and simplify further,
notice that we can reduce the 24 over 6 1/2,
distribute and simplify further
And a=
idk sorry ill look for you
a constant of proportionality is a number you have to multiply x by to get y.
y=kx is the equation that expresses the proportionality of x and y
in this case, 10 video games cost $145
the question's basically asking what you have to multiply 10 by to get 145
y= 145; x=10
k= y/x = 145/10=14.5
the constant of proportionality is 14.5
Answer:
Seth has 21 nickels
Step-by-step explanation:
Let n represent the number of nickels. Since Seth has 8 more nickels than dimes, then (n-8) is the number dimes.
Nickel is worth 5 cents and dime is worth 10 cents. Thus, n nickels are worth 5n cents and (n-8) dimes are worth 10(n-8) cents. The total value of Seth's coins is $2.35 that is 235 cents, then
Solve this equation:
We are given the height of Joe which is 1.6 meters, the length of his shadow is 2 meters when he stands 3 meters from the base of the floodlight.
First, we have to illustrate the problem. Then we can observe two right triangles formed, one is using Joe and the length of the shadow, the other is the floodlight and the sum of the distance from the base plus the length of the shadow. To determine the height of the floodlight, use ratio and proportion:
1.6 / 2 = x / (2 +3)
where x is the height of the flood light
solve for x, x = 4. Therefore, the height of the floodlight is 4 meters.
