<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

The constant of proportionality is 24

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

The number of cups of sugar is directly proportional to the number of cookies made. This means that as the number of sugar cups increases, the number of cookies made will also increase.

<u>This is modeled by the equation:</u>

y = kx

where:

k is the constant of proportionality

y is the dependent variable (number of cookies)

x is the independent variable (number of cups of sugar)

<u>Now, we are give that</u> 4 cups of sugar are required to make 96 cookies. <u>Substitute with these values in the above equation and solve for k (the constant of proportionality) as follows:</u>

y = kx

96 = k*4

k = \frac{96}{4}=24

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

constant of proportionality is

k=24

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

formula

y=kx

as we can see that cookies are dependent on number of cup of sugar

number of cup of sugar are independent hence

x=number of cup of sugars=4

y=number of cookies=96

to find k

we will put values of x and y in formula

y=kx

k=y/x

k=96/4

k=24

Orlov [11]

Answer: A=944\ ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to use the following formula that is used to find the area of a trapezoid:

A=(\frac{M+m}{2})h

Where "M"and "m" are the bases of the trapezoid and "h" is the height of the trapezoid.

Based on the information given in the exercise, you can identify that:

M=c=36\ ft\\\\m=a=23\ ft\\\\h=b=32\ ft

Knowing these values, you can substitute them into the formula:

A=(\frac{36\ ft+23\ ft}{2})(32\ ft)

Finally, you must evaluate in order to find its area. This is:

A=(\frac{59\ ft}{2})(32\ ft)\\\\A=\frac{1888\ ft^2}{2}\\\\A=944\ ft^2

0.31 repeating as a fraction
sukhopar [10]
I believe its 31/100! <span>To write 0.3111 as a fraction you have to write 0.3111 as numerator and put 1 as the denominator. Now you multiply numerator and denominator by 10 as long as you get in numerator the whole number.</span>
