<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

2 triangles are shown. The first triangle has side lengths 35, 20, and 20. The second triangle has side lengths x, 44, 44.
Ad libitum [116K]

The value of x is 77 cm which will make the triangles similar by SSS similarity theorem

Given length of the three sides of one triangle are  35 , 20 and 20

and length of the three sides of another triangle are  x, 44,44

We need to find the values of x by using SSS Similarity theorem

We know that triangles are are similar by side - side - side similarity creation and hence the sides are in the same ratio

As both the triangles are isosceles triangles

Therefore ,

x/35 = 44/20=44/20 (Using ratio)

Solving the equation we get

x=44*35/20

x= 77

Hence the value of x is 77cm
