Answer:

The constant of variation is 1.6.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = kx  and x = 5 when y = 8 and k = the constant of variation.

8 = k*5

k = 8.5 = 1.6.

Answer:

8/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in the point given into

y=kx.

The number you get for y will be your constant of variation, also know as constant of proportionality.

(x,y)=(5,8) implies 8=k(5)

So in solving that equation we just need to divide both sides by 5 giving us:

8/5=k.

My question is <br> 2+2/4*10
alexandr1967 [171]

2+2=4 so now its 4/4*10. 4*10 is 40 so now its 4/40. Dividing both sides by 4 will get you the simplest form 1/10

A bad punter on a football team kicks a football approximately straight upward with an initial velocity of 89 ft/sec.
Andrej [43]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertical velocity will be affected by gravity in this scenario

df = do + vo t + 1/2 a t^2         do = original height = 4 ft      a = -32.2 ft/s^2

<u>df = 4 + 89 t  - 1/2 (32.2) t^2        df = height</u>

<u />

On the way up and the way down, the ball may reach height of 102.2125 ft :

102.2125 = 4 + 89 t - 1/2 (32.2) t2   re-arrange to:

-16.1 t^2 + 89t - 98.2125 =0  

      Use Quadratic Formula to find <u>t =   1.5 and 4.0 s </u>
