Y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality.

We need to find k as our first step.

35 = k140

35/140 = k

1/4 = k

We can now find y when x = 70.

y = kx

y = (1/4)(70)

y = 70/4

This fraction can be simplified or reduced more.

The number 2 is the GCF of 70 and 4.

70 ÷ 2 = 35

4 ÷ 2 = 2

Answer:

y = 35/2

For each formula,rearrange so a is by itself:
vichka [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 6-9b=3a

First:Subtract

3b=3a

Second: Devide

3b/3a

=(3÷3)(b÷a)

=1b/a

= b/a

B) 6b+2a=3a

First:Transpose (Group the like terms. signs will change.)

-3a+2a=-6b

=-1a=-6b

Second:Divide

=-1a/-6b:(-1÷-6)(a÷b)

=1a/6b

=a/6b

C)a/3=b+2

First: Transpose

a=3+2+b

=a/6+b

A circle with radius 4 inches is inscribed in an equilateral triangle. Find the area of the triangle.
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

The inscribed circle has its center at the point of intersection of the angle bisectors, which also happen to be the medians. Hence the altitude of the triangle is 3 times the radius, or 12 inches.

The side length of this triangle is 2/√3 times the altitude, so the area is

... Area = (1/2)·b·h = (1/2)·(24/√3 in)·(12 in)

... Area = 48√3 in² ≈ 83.1384 in²
