Answer:

y = 192

Step-by-step explanation:

Given y varies directly as z and inversely as x then the equation relating them is

y = $\frac{kx}{z}$ ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition y = 16 and z = 2 when x = 42

k = $\frac{yx}{z}$ = $\frac{16(42)}{2}$ = 336

y = $\frac{336z}{x}$ ← equation of variation

When x = 14 and z = 8, then

y = $\frac{336(8)}{14}$ = 192

Mrs Carson gives the better deal, this is becuase when i set up an inequality 48/6 and 67.50/9, i divided 48 by 2 then added 24 to 48 so i could get them both so i can see what they give, so Mrs Carson gives 72 dollars every 9 hours and thats better than 67.50.

Answer:

It will cost is $828.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Davis is putting tile in his rectangular kitchen. His kitchen is 13 feet long, and 17 feet wide. The tile davis is installing is $3.75 per square foot.

Now, to find the total cost.

Davis is putting tile in his rectangular kitchen.

Length = 13 feet.

Width = 17 feet.

So, to get the area of kitchen:

Area = length × width

Area = 13 × 17

Area = 221 square foot.

As, the unit rate is given.

Cost per square foot = $3.75.

Now, to get the total cost by using unitary method:

If cost of 1 square foot = $3.75.

So, the cost of 221 square foot = $3.75 × 221

= $828.75.

Therefore, it will cost $828.75.
