Answer:

y ∝ m and 1760 is a constant of proportionality.

Step-by-step explanation:

The relation between a distance in the yards (y) and the same distance in miles (m) is described by the equation y = 1760m.

So, the graph of the above equation passes through the origin(0,0) and it will be a straight line with a constant slope of 1760.

Therefore, a measurement in yards and a measurement in miles are in the relation of proportionality for the same distance.

Hence, y ∝ m and 1760 is a constant of proportionality. (Answer)

Answer:

Yes. There exist a direct proportionality, since a change in one variable leads to a direct change in the other variable and exist a constant ratio between them.

Step-by-step explanation:

The condition of direct proportionality mean the existence of the following relationship:

y \propto m

y = k\cdot m

Where k is a constant of proportionality, the suggested formula observes every characteristic of the direct proportionality. (k = 1760)

Paper rectangle ABCD is folded in such a way that the fold passes through point B, and so A coincides with point H where H ∈ CD.
aivan3 [116]

The answer is BC = 38.22 cm.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

We have, ∠BKD = 120° ,BK = 28 cm, Draw a perpendicular from point K on BC let it intersect at point M.  In right angled ΔBMK, ∠BKM=30° and BK = 28 cm

sin30° = perpendicular/hypotenuse

1/2 = BM/BK

1/2 = BM/28

BM= 14 cm

Now , In right angled ΔBMK ,

cos30° = base/hypotenuse

√3/2 = MK/28

MK = 14√3 = 24.22 cm

KMCD is a square  MK = MC = 24.22 cm

also, BC = BM + MC , putting values of BM & MC we get :

BC = 14 cm + 24.22 cm

BC = 38.22 cm.
