The proportion that could be used to solve for the variable is \frac{16}{40}=\frac{3}{h} ; h = 7.5 ⇒ answer b

Step-by-step explanation:

A proportional relationship: one variable is always a constant value times the other, that constant is called the constant of proportionality

  • y = k x is the equation of the proportional relationship
  • We can write the proportional relationship in the form \frac{y_{1}}{x_{1}}=\frac{y_{2}}{x_{2}}=k

The number of walls and the number of hours are increased or decreased together

∴ The number of walls and the number of hours are proportion

∵ 16 walls in 40 hours

∵ 3 walls in h hours

- By using the second rule above

∴ \frac{16}{40}=\frac{3}{h}

The proportion that could be used to solve for the variable is  \frac{16}{40}=\frac{3}{h}

Let us solve it to find h

∵  \frac{16}{40}=\frac{3}{h}

- By using cross multiplication

∴ 16 × h = 3 × 40

∴ 16 h = 120

- Divide both sides by 16

∴ h = 7.5

The value of h is 7.5 hours

6th grade math, assignment attached
timurjin [86]

Step-by-step explanation:

Q9. 5n + 8 = 43

5n = 43 - 8

5n = 35

n = 35/5

n = 7

Q10. y/6 - 7 = 4

y/6 = 4 + 7

y/6 = 11

y = 11×6

y = 66

Q11. 8w - 15 = 57

8w = 57 + 15

8w = 72

w = 72/8

w = 9

Q12. g/3 + 11 = 25

g/3 = 25 - 11

g/3 = 14

g = 14×3

g = 42

Q13. f/5 - 22 = -25

f/5 = -25 + 22

f/5 = -3

f = -3×5

f = -15

Q14. -4p + 19 = 11

4p = 19 - 11

4p = 8

p = 8/4

p= 2

a college professor teaches a class of 80 students. fourteen students are business majors, six are education majors, and the res
Xelga [282]

Total students: 80

We know that:

-business has 14 students

-education has 6 students

-undecided has x students

We need to find out x! So we can add 14 and 6 up and subtract it by 80 to figure out the amount of undecided students there are.

80-(14+6)=60

To find out the percentage, we divide the number of undecided students by the number of total students, and multiply it by 100.

60/80=30/40=0.75=0.75*100=75%

75% of the class is undecided for a major
