Answer: Option 'C' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

h varies directly with w and inversely with p.

so, Mathematically, it is expressed as

h=\dfrac{kw}{p}

Here, h = 2

w = 4

p = 6.

So, it becomes,

2=\dfrac{4k}{6}\\\\2\times 6=4k\\\\12=4k\\\\\dfrac{12}{4}=k\\\\k=3

Hence, Option 'C' is correct.

Answer is (C).

let's take the constant as K.

h= K. (w/p)

so; K= (hp ÷w)
K= (2x6) ÷ 4
K = 12÷4
K= 3

What is the distributive property for 9−12x+6y=
Ulleksa [173]

Because there are no parentheses, I'm assuming you're asking for how to factor this using the GCF, which can be done like so:

9−12x+6y

Factor a 3 out of this expression.

3(3 - 4x + 2y)

The expression has been simplified using the distributive property in reverse.

Three cards are drawn from a standard deck of 52 cards without replacement. Find the probability that the first card is an ace,
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

4.82\cdot 10^{-4}

Step-by-step explanation:

In a deck of cart, we have:

a = 4 (aces)

t = 4 (three)

j = 4 (jacks)

And the total number of cards in the deck is

n = 52

So, the probability of drawing an ace as first cart is:

p(a)=\frac{a}{n}=\frac{4}{52}=\frac{1}{13}=0.0769

At the second drawing, the ace is not replaced within the deck. So the number of cards left in the deck is

n-1=51

Therefore, the probability of drawing a three at the 2nd draw is

p(t)=\frac{t}{n-1}=\frac{4}{51}=0.0784

Then, at the third draw, the previous 2 cards are not replaced, so there are now

n-2=50

cards in the deck. So, the probability of drawing a jack is

p(j)=\frac{j}{n-2}=\frac{4}{50}=0.08

Therefore, the total probability of drawing an ace, a three and then a jack is:

p(atj)=p(a)\cdot p(j) \cdot p(t)=0.0769\cdot 0.0784 \cdot 0.08 =4.82\cdot 10^{-4}

Jesse drives to work. The distance Jesse’s car travels (d) on a number of gallons of gas (g) is given by the equation d = 15g. T
kirill115 [55]
I can only half answer this question, as it doesn't tell what form of distance is used

the equation is...

d=15g

Now lets solve for 1 gallon of gas

d=15g
d=15(1)
d=15

This means that for every 1 gallon of gas, 15 (insert missing unit of distance here) can be driven.

15/1=15

Answer:The constant of proportionality is 15.
