The answer is: No, because we also need to know the type of proportionality


In mathematics, we talk about proportionality when two variables are related and this relationship is that there is a constant ratio between them. There are two types of proportionality.


1. Direct Proportionality:

If there are two variables x and y, we can write the relationship between them as follows:


y=kx


So, by substituting the point in this equation we have that the constant of proportionality is:


4=k(3) \\ \\ \therefore \boxed{k=\frac{4}{3}}


2. Inverse Proportionality:


In this case, the relationship is:


y=\frac{k}{x}


So, the constant of proportionality is:


4=\frac{k}{3} \\ \\ \therefore \boxed{k=12}


As you can see, we have found two different values of the constant of proportionality. So, it is necessary to know the type of proportionality.

Find the volume to the nearest cm3<br> 20 cm<br> 35 cm<br> 12 cm
riadik2000 [5.3K]
Answer: 10380cm^3

Explanation:

Find the volume of half cylinder:

V = (pi x r^2 x h)/2 (I use pi = 22/7 for simplifying)
V = 22/7 x 6^2/2 x 35
V = 22/7 x 36/2 x 35
V = 22/7 x 35 x 18
V = 22 x 5 x 18
V = 1980cm^3

Find the volume of the rectangle:

V = 20 x 35 x 12
V = 240 x 5 x 7
V = 1200 x 7
V = 8400cm^3

Find the volume of the whole shape:

V = 1980 + 8400
V = 10380cm^3
