The number of pepperoni slices that kim puts on a pizza varies directly as the square of the diameter of the pizza. If she puts

15 slices on a 10" diameter pizza, how many slices should she put on a 16" diameter pizza?

You can make this into a fraction, and then simplify it.

15/10, right?

15/10 = 3/2

Then compare 3/2 to the rest of the equation

3/2 = x/16

2 * 8 = 16
so
3 * 8 = x
x = 24

Kim would put x number of pizza slices on her pizza.
So she would be putting on 24 slices on her pizza.

Varies directly as the square of the diameter
square means to multiply by itself or x^2
that means
k=x/y
in this case
x=15
y=10^2
k=15/10^2=15/100=3/20
so the new pizza is
k=x/16^2
k=3/20
3/20=x/16^2
evaluate 16^2
3/20=x/256
multiply both sides by 256
768/20=x
384/10=x
38.4=x
she should put about 38 slises

Sara is trying to find an equation for a line that passes through (5, 2) and is perpendicular to 3x + 2y = 15. Explain the steps
Anettt [7]
Not on your list, but an easy way is
.. a) swap coefficients of x and y, negating one. (Now you have 2x -3y.)
.. b) set any constant term to zero (now you have 2x -3y = 0)
.. c) translate the line to the point (5, 2) by substituting x ⇒ x-5, y⇒ y-2
2(x -5) -3(y -2) = 0


The way you've been taught, selection C is the proper choice.
