Direct variation means that changes in x will result to changes in y. If x increase, y also increases and vice versa.

y = kx
k = y / x

y = 45 ; x = 40

k = 45/40 
k = 1.125

y = 1.125x 

y will increase by 1.125 interval of x.

Answer:

an equation that relates x and y :

y = 1.125x

Step-by-step explanation:

The direct variation says that:

y \propto x

then equation is of the form:

y = kx where k is the constant of variation.

As per the statement:

The variables x and y vary directly.

then by definition we have;

y = kx                .....[1]

Given that: y = 45 and x = 40

Substitute these in [1] to solve for k;

45=40k

Divide both sides by 40 we have;

1.125 = k

Therefore, an equation that relates x and y :

y = 1.125x

The probability that a single radar station will detect an enemy plane is 0.65. (a) How many such stations are required to be 98
Inga [223]

Answer:

4 stations

Step-by-step explanation:

If we need to be at least 98% certain that an enemy plane flying over will be detected by at least one station, we must ensure that there is at most a 2% chance that no radar stations detect the plane.

The probability that a single radar station does not detect the plane is 0.35.

For n radar stations:

P=0.02=0.35^n\\n=\frac{log(0.02)}{log(0.35)}\\n=3.73

Rounding up to the next whole station, at least 4 stations are needed.

slega [8]
30 because the angles of the triangle should be 180. Since we know one is 90 the other is 60 so 180-(90+60)=30
