Y = kx

(i) 8 = k(-6)
k = -4/3
=> equation ： y=(-4/3)x

(ii) y = (-4/3)(-2)
y= 8/3

Georgia [21]

Answer:

$9\pi \: \mathrm{ft^2\:or}\: 28.27 \mathrm{\: ft^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is given by $r^2\pi$ where $r$ is the radius of the circle. The diameter is given as $6$ feet, so the radius of this circle is $\frac{6}{2}=3$ feet.

Plugging in our values, we get:

$3^2\pi=9\pi\approx28.27$ .

You buy hamburgers at a fast food restaurant. A hamburger costs $0.49. You must have at most $3 to spend. Write an inequality fo

KIM [24]

Answer:

x ≤ 6.12

Step-by-step explanation:

If the cost of 1 hamburger in a restaurant is $0.49, the amount of hamburger $3 can buy is expressed as shown .

$0.49 = 1

$3 ≤ x (since you have maximum of $3 to spend. It cant be more than that)

cross multiply to find the expression for x.

$0.49 * x ≤ $3 * 1

$0.49x ≤ $3

Divide both sides by $0.49

$0.49x/$0.49 ≤ $3/$0.49

x ≤ $3/$0.49

x ≤ 6.12

The number of hamburgers you can buy is represented by the inequality x ≤ 6.12
