Directly proportional, both increase/decrease, Multiple k(constant you needed to solve for)..
Inversely --one increases as the other decreases, increase the denominator & fraction gets smaller.... So
Problem:
Dirextly to X (× by X)
Inversely to Y, (÷ by Y)
Z= k X/Y
Solve, working backwards: Z =5 becomes
5 = k (X) ÷ (Y). And
X=15 and Y =9 becomes
5= k(15)/(9). Undo ÷9, ×9 both sides
45= k(15). Now undo ×15 by ÷15 both sides
45/15 = 3. So k=3, (also called your constant of variation)....and your Equation/Proportion becomes...
Z = 3X/Y
Use the new #s.... X=23, Y=14
Z= 3×23÷14 = 69/14. If they want spirochete answer divide and round to corresponding # if decimals

Answer:
12 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the base to the other sides is ...
4 : 7 : 7
The perimeter is a total of 4 +7 +7 = 18 ratio units, so each ratio units stands for 54/18 = 3 length units.
The base length is then ...
(4 ratio units)(3 length units/ratio unit) = 12 length units
Answer:
% Po lost = 100[1 - e^(-0.005t)] %; 73.0 g
Step-by-step explanation:
p(t) = 100e^(-0.005t)
Initial amount: p(0) = 100
Amount remaining: p(t) = 100e^(-0.005t)
Amount lost: p(0) – p(t) = 100 - 100e^(-0.005t) = 100[1 - e^(-0.005t)]
% of Po lost = amount lost/initial amount × 100 %
= [1 - e^(-0.005t)] × 100 % = 100[1 - e^(-0.005t)] %
p(63) = 100e^(-0.005 × 63) = 100e^(-0.315) = 100 × 0.730 = 73 g
The mass of polonium remaining after 63 days is 73 g.
You would divide 2 by 2 and 8 by 2
So your answer would be 1/4
