<u>Answer: </u>

An audio cable is 15.9 dm long. The length of the audio cable in metre is 159m

<u>Solution: </u>

Given that audio cable is 15.9 dm long. We have to convert 15.9 decimetre to meter.

To convert decimetre(m) to metre(cm) we use the given formula

We know,

1m =10 dm

Therefore to convert any number in decimetre (dm) to metre (m) we multiply the given number by 10.

Here we have to convert 15.9 dm to m. Therefore multiplying 15.9 with 10 we get,

$15.9 \times 10 = 159 m$

Thus the length of the cable in metre is 159 m.

Answer:

K=4

Y=16

X=4

Step-by-step explanation:

$y = kx {}^{2} \\ finding \: k \: when \: y= 36 \: and \: x = 3 \\ 36 = k(3) {}^{2} \\ 36 = 9k \\ dividing \: through \: by \: 9 \\ \frac{36}{9} = \frac{9k}{9} \\ 4 = k \\ k = 4 \\ findnig \: y \: when \: x = 2 \\ y = 4(2) {}^{2} \\ y = 4 \times 4 = 16 \\ finding \: x \: when \: y = 64 \\ 64 = 4 \times x \\ 64 = 4x \\ dividing \: through \: by \: 4 \\ \frac{64}{4} = \frac{4x {}^{2} }{4} \\ 16 = x {}^{2} \\ square \: root \: bothsides \\ \sqrt{16} = x {}^{2} \\ 4 = x \\ x = 4$

In the figure below, BC=7 and AB= 16. Find AC.

Minchanka [31]

The expressions BC and AB are illustrations of straight lines

The length AC is 25 units

<h3>How to determine the length of AC?</h3>

The given parameters are:

BC =7

AB = 16

Assume that AB and BC are straight lines.

Then , we have:

AC =AB + BC

Substitute known values

AC = 16 + 7

Evaluate the sum

AC = 25

Hence, the length AC is 25 units
