Answer:

The constant of variation is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given.

y=81

x=27

And y is directly related to x

y ∝ x

Here k is constant of variation

y=kx

k=\frac{y}{x}--------------(1)

Put the y and x value in equation 1.

k=\frac{81}{27}

k=3

So, the constant of variation is 3.

A video game system and several games are sold for $652. The cost of the games is 3 times as much as the cost of the system. Fin
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

The cost of the system is $163 and The cost of the games is $489

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ A video game system and several games are sold for $652

∵ The cost of the games is 3 times as much as the cost of the system

→ Assume that the cost of the system is $x

∵ The cost of the system = x

∴ The cost of the games = 3 × x = 3x

∵ The total cost of the system and the games = 652

→ Equate the sum of the cost of the system and the cost of the games

   by 652

∴ x + 3x = 652

→ Add the like terms in the left side

∴ 4x = 652

→ Divide both sides by 4 to find x

∵ \frac{4x}{4}=\frac{652}{4}

∴ x = 163

∵ The cost of the system = x

∴ The cost of the system is $163

∵ The cost of the games = 3x

∴ The cost of the games = 3(163) = 489

∴ The cost of the games is $489

A pyramid with a square base is cut by a plane that is parallel to its base and is 2 units from the base. The surface area of th
icang [17]

Answer:

  6.83 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the original pyramid be represented by h. Then the cut off top has a height of (h -2). The scale factor for the area is the square of the scale factor for height, so we have ...

  (height ratio)^2 = 1/2

  ((h -2)/h)^2 = 1/2

  (h -2)√2 = h . . . . . . square root; multiply by h√2

  h(√2 -1) = 2√2 . . . . add 2√2 -h

  h = (2√2)/(√2 -1) ≈ 6.8284 . . . units

The altitude of the original pyramid is about 6.83 units.

Write an equation for a line that is parallel to the graph of y = -3x + 6 and passes through the point at (-4, 7)
ale4655 [162]
Y = -3x + 6....the slope here is -3. A parallel line will have the same slope.

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -3
(-4,7)....x = -4 and y = 7
now we sub into the formula and find b, the y int
7 = -3(-4) + b
7 = 12 + b
7 - 12 = b
-5 = b
so ur parallel equation is : y = -3x - 5 <==

Harry buys a TV priced at £1200 plus 20% VAT.
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

£ 114

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Price of TV = £ 1200

VAT = 20%

Amount paid = £ 300

Amount paid monthly =.?

Next, we shall determine the VAT. This can be obtained as follow:

VAT = 20% of price of TV

VAT = 20/100 × 1200

VAT = £ 240

Next, we shall determine the total cost of the TV. This can be obtained as follow:

Price of TV = £ 1200

VAT = £ 240

Total cost of TV =?

Total cost = Price + VAT

Total cost = 1200 + 240

Total cost = £ 1440

Next, we shall determine the balance amount he needs to pay. This can be obtained as follow:

Total cost = £ 1440

Amount paid = £ 300

Balance amount =?

Balance = Total cost – Amount paid

Balance = 1440 – 300

Balance = £ 1140

Finally, we shall determine the amount Harry will pay month.

Balance Amount = £ 1140

Number of months = 10

Amount paid monthly =.?

Amount paid monthly = Balance / number of month

Amount paid monthly = 1140 / 10

Amount paid monthly = £ 114

Therefore, Harry will pay £ 114 monthly.
