If k is a constant of proportionality then we know from last week that
512= k ·32 so k=512/32=16;

This week 
448= k · amount he saved
448=16· amount he saved
amount saved=448/16=28

Answer $28

Answer:

$28.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y represent of saved money and x represent amount of earned money.

We have been given that the amount of money that Charlie saves each week is directly proportional to the amount he earns.

We know that two proportional quantities are in form y=kx, where, k is constant of proportionality.

Substitute given values and solve for k:

32=k*512

\frac{32}{512}=\frac{k*512}{512}

\frac{1}{16}=k

To find amount of saved money, we will substitute k=\frac{1}{16} and x=448 in our equation.

y=\frac{1}{16}\cdot 448

y=28

Therefore, Charlie saved $28 in the given week.

Hello! To find the answer to this, let’s do 6x + 4x = 180. Combine like terms and you get that 10x = 180. Divide each side by 10 in order to get 18. Angle 1 = 108 degrees and Angle 12 = 72 degrees. Odd number angles match each other and even number angles match each other. In this case, 5 has the same angle measurement as 1, which is 108. The answer is D: 108 degrees.
