Answer: k=2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

1. As you can see in the graph, when x increases, y also increases at the same rate, therefore, it is a direct proportion that has the following form

y=kx

2. Choose one of the points shown in the graph, substitute it into the expression and solve for k, which is the constant of proportionality, as following:

10=k*4\\k=2.5

<u>Answer:</u>

2.5

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

We are given a graph with a positive slope where the value of y increases when the value of x increases.

For the given graph, we are to find the constant of proportionality of y to x which is the slope of the given line.

We know the formula of the slope = \frac{y_2-y_1} {x_2-x_1}

Substituting the given values in the formula:

\frac{15-10}{6-4} = \frac{5}{2} = 2.5

A tetrahedron is a triangular pyramid with 4 equilateral faces. Han has a box of tetrahedrons with each of the 4 vertices marked
Daniel [21]

Theoretically, the number of the vertex comes at the top must be equal for infinitely many numbers of trials, but it's a tedious job to roll the dice for a large number of times. Rolling the tetrahedron only 10 times will not predict the correct result.

Han suspects that this tetrahedron is weighted in some way to make 1 appear more often than the other numbers.

So, check his suspect experimentally with the help of the concept of center of mass. A fair tetrahedron must have the center of mass at the center of the body.

The given tetrahedron has 4 equilateral triangular faces, so at first, measure all the sides of triangular faces and make sure that all are having the same length.

Then, conduct an experiment to check the location of the center of mass.

Hang the tetrahedron by attaching a thin string at the vertex 1 as shown in the figure and observe the base surface ( triangle 234) whether it is parallel to the ground or not.

Now, repeat the same by hanging it with vertices 2, 3, and 4 and observe the base surface.

For the center of mass to be located at the center of the tetrahedron, the base must be parallel to the ground (flat ground).i.e the hanging string must be perpendicular to the base for all the four cases.

If this is so, then the tetrahedron is a fair tetrahedron otherwise not.

Find the surface area of this rectangular prism: Don't forget to show the unit of measure.
Ann [662]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete as the attachment of the prism is not given.

From the attachment:

L =10cm -- Length

W = 4cm -- Width

H=5cm -- Height

Required

Determine the volume

So, the volume is:

Volume = Length * Width (* Height

Volume = 10cm * 4cm * 5cm

Volume = 200cm^3
