we know that

The cost is directly proportional to the weight, so if the weight is increased by a factor of 4, the cost will also increase by a factor of 4.

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

the total cost increase by a factor of 4

Answer:

Both sides of the ratio is increased by a factor of four.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratios given:          <u> Weights </u>         <u> Costs </u>

                                     1                      2

                                     4                      8

                                     6                     12

                                    10                    20

Each cost is the double of its weight, so the base ratio is 1:2. This is where we begin.

When you increase the weight by a factor of four, this is what that side of the ratios change to:    

                   4:2                 8:8                    24:12                   40:20

This changes the base ratio to 2:1. Because the base ratio isn't meant to change, what we did to one side of the ratio we must do to the other to maintain proportionality. So that means the factor of cost increase is also four.

New ratios:

                              4:8     8:32    24:48   40:80

Answer:

The next time they would play despacito on both stations is after 35 minutes.

Hence, 3:00pm + 35

= 3:35 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

The radio hot 97 plays despacito ft Justin beiber every 5 minutes. Another station Z 100 plays despacito every 7 minutes. Both stations at start 3:00 pm and what time will it be when despacito at the same time ?

Find and list multiples of time that despacito plays Radio hot 97 and Station Z 100.

Hence, we find the Multiples of 5 minutes and 7 minutes until the first common multiple is found. This is the lowest common multiple.

Multiples of 5:

5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45

Multiples of 7:

7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49

Therefore, the first common multiple is found which is the lowest common multiple is 35

LCM(5, 7) = 35

The next time they would play despacito on both stations is after 35 minutes.

Hence, 3:00pm + 35

= 3:35 pm
