Answer It With Solution!

Leya [2.2K]

The correct answer is 2.8 liters

Explanation:

The volume of the water in the bottle can be calculated by subtracting 3.5 liters from the volume of water the pail can hold (6.3 liters) because the volume in the bottle is 3.5 liters less than the one in the pail. Below, you can find the process.

volume in the pail - 3.5 liters = volume in the bottle

6.3 liters - 3.5 liters = 2.8 liters

This means the volume of water in the bottle is 2.8 liters. Also, you can double-check this answer by adding the volume in the bottle and the 3.5 liters (2.8 + 3.5 = 6.3).

Suppose that w and t vary inversely and that t = 5/12

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

Option B. t=5/3w ;1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that $w$ varies Inversely with $t$ thus generally speaking $w$ ∝ $\frac{1}{t}$ since they are inverted, otherwise if they were proportionally varied then $w$ ∝ $t$ . This means that there is a constant value ( $a$ ) for which $w$ is inversely proportional to $t$ and can be mathematically expressed as:

$w=\frac{a}{t}$ Eqn. (1)

Now since we are given the values of $w=4$ and $t=\frac{5}{12}$ , we can plug them in Eqn. (1) and find our constant of proportionality $a$ as follow:
