Drupady [299]

A table of values can be used to represent variables that are directly proportional.

The complete table of proportions is:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccccccccc}Letters&10&2&[150 ]&7&1&500&[420] \\Cost&0.45&0.90&6.75&[0.315]&[0.045 ]&[22.5 ] & 18.90\end{array}\right]$

Given that

$\left[\begin{array}{ccccccccc}Letters&10&2&[\ ]&7&1&500&[\ ] \\Cost&0.45&0.90&6.75&[\ ]&[\ ]&[\ ] & 18.90\end{array}\right]$

Let:

<em /> $L \to$ <em> Letters</em>

<em /> $C \to$ <em> Cost</em>

<em />

Using proportional reasoning, we have:

$C = kL$

Where

<em /> $k \to$ <em> ratio of proportion</em>

For the first values of C and L, we have:

$C = kL$

$0.45 = k \times 10$

Divide both sides by 10

$k = 0.045$

So, the equation of proportion is:

$C = 0.045L$

<u>When C = 6.75, we have:</u>

$C = 0.045L$

$6.75 = 0.045L$

Solve for L

$L = \frac{6.75}{0.045}$

$L = 150$

<u>When L = 7, we have:</u>

$C = 0.045L$

$C = 0.045 \times 7$

$C = 0.315$

<u>When L = 1, we have:</u>

$C = 0.045L$

$C = 0.045 \times 1$

$C = 0.045$

<u>When L = 500, we have:</u>

$C =0.045L\\$

$C =0.045 \times 500$

$C =22.5$

<u>When C = 18.90, we have:</u>

$C = 0.045L$

$18.90 = 0.045L$

Solve for L

$L=\frac{18.90}{0.045}$

$L=420$

Hence, the complete table is:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccccccccc}Letters&10&2&[150 ]&7&1&500&[420] \\Cost&0.45&0.90&6.75&[0.315]&[0.045 ]&[22.5 ] & 18.90\end{array}\right]$

Sauron [17]

Answer:

The factors are 3 and -9

Step-by-step explanation:

The given trinomial is $x^2-6x-27$ .

We need to find two factors. We know that,

3(9) = 27

So,

$x^2-6x-27$ can be written as :

$x^2+3x-9x-27$ as two factors add up to get -6 and multiply to get -27.

Hence, the factors are 3 and -9.
