ANSWER

y = 7

EXPLANATION

If y varies directly with x, we write the mathematical statement;

y \propto \: x

When we introduce the constant of proportionality k, then we write the equation,

y = kx

If y is 2.5 when x is 5,then we have;

2.5 = 5k

k =  \frac{2.5}{5}

k = 0.5

The equation of variation then becomes;

y = 0.5x

when x=14,

y = 0.5(14)

y = 7

Answer:

The correct answer is, y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,If y is 2.5 when x is 5 and i varies directly with x

<u>To find the relationship between x and y</u>

From the given data, we can write,

x = 5 the y = 2.5

2.5 = 5/2

Therefore y = x/2

<u>To find the value of y</u>

x = 14

y = x/2 = 14/2 = 7

Therefore the correct answer is, y = 7

Many U.S employees received a 3% raise in 2012. Suppose an employee made $47,000 in 2011 and received a 3% raise. What did she m
Hoochie [10]
First lets get 3% into decimal form. 

3% is 3/100  = 0.03

Now multiply 0.03 by 47000 to get how much extra money she was going to get. 

47000 * 0.03 = 1410

Now we just add
47000 + 1410 = 48410 is what she was going to make in 2012

Another way to do this is 

(47000)(1+0.03) = 48410

you would use (1+0.03) which tells you she increased in pay.

Answer:

BC = 10.24

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the Pythagoras theorem for this question

a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}

a = 8cm

b = ???

c = 13cm

We will solve for B (length BC)

a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}

8^{2} + b^{2} = 13^{2}

Rearrange for b

b^{2} = 13^{2} - 8^{2}

b^{2} = 105

b = \sqrt{105}

b = 10.24

the floor of a room is in the shape of a square of side 4.8m. the floor is to be covered with square tiles of perimeter 1.2m. Fi
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

the room square side is 4.8m

Area of the room is= 4.8=²23.04²m

perimeter of square tiles=4a =1.2

a=1.2/4

or a=o.3m

area of the square tiles =0.3²=0.09m²

numbers of the tiles are rcover floor of the room

23.0.4/0.09=256

each tiles cost Rs 27

the total cost=256*27=6912

the th coalst cover by the th floor is Rs .6912

A particle is moving with the given data. Find the position of the particle. a(t) = 2t + 9, s(0) = 8, v(0) = −7
Jobisdone [24]
If you mean by a(t)=2t+9 is the acceleration function then we integrate...

v(t)=2t^2/2+9t+c where c is vo and we are told that that is -7 so

v(t)=t^2+9t-7 integrating again we get:

s(t)=t^3/3+9t^2/2-7t+c where c is the initial position which is 8 so

s(t)=t^3/3+9t^2/2-7t+8  which neatened up as

s(t)=(2t^3+27t^2-42t+48)/6
