It will take you 2 hours.
Here's how....
Set up the problem as a proportion, bearing in mind that ....
1/8 = .125 (of the whole yard)
1/4 = .25   (of an hour)
1    =   the whole yard

.125          1
------  =   -----
.25           x

.125x = .25
       x =  2

Line e passes through points (7, 6) and (10, 2). Line f is parallel to line e. What is the slope of line f?
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

Line f has the same slope, -4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the the slope of line e

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

    = (2-6)/(10-7)

    = -4/3

Since the lines are parallel, they have the same slope

Line f has the same slope, -4/3

The frequency f of vibration of a violin string is inversely proportional to its length L. The constant of proportionality k is
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

(A)  f=\frac{k}{L}

(B) Frequency becomes half.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the frequency f of vibration of a violin string is inversely proportional to its length L. The constant of proportionality k is positive and depends on the tension and density of the string.

(A) We know that two inversely proportional quantities are in form y=\frac{k}{x}, where y is inversely proportional to x and k is constant of proportionality.

Upon substituting our given values, we will get:

f=\frac{k}{L}

Therefore, our required equation would be f=\frac{k}{L}.

(B) For part, we have been given that length is twice, so our new frequency will be f_n and new length L_n is 2L.

Upon substituting 2L in our equation as:

f_n=\frac{k}{L_n}

f_n=\frac{k}{2L}

f_n=\frac{1}{2}\cdot \frac{k}{L}

f_n=\frac{1}{2}\cdot f

Upon comparing f_n with f, we can see that f_n is half the value of f.

Therefore, the frequency of vibration of violin gets half, when we double the length of the string.
