Two variables vary inversely if their product is constant (does not change). The variables w and t vary inversely so their product wt = k were k is a constant. Solving this for t we get t=k/w

We are told that w = 4 and t = 1/5 so we know their product wt = (4)(1/5) = 4/5. This is what I called k before.

Therefore the relationship between w and t can be modeled by t = (4/5) / w. That is, t = 4 / 5w

Further, when w = 9, we find t by substituting 9 for w in the equation just found and obtain: t = 4 / [(5)(9)] = 4/45. That is, when w = 9, t = 4/45.

This mean choice D is the correct answer.

A rectangular pan has a length that is the width. The total area of the pan is 432 in.2. What is the width of the cake pan? A =
spayn [35]

Answer:

Let width = w

length = 4w/3

Area = 432 = length*width = w*4w/3

4w^2/3 = 432

w^2 = 432*3/4 = 324

w = 18

so the width of the cake pan is 18 inches.

Pls help for 27b!!!!!!!
rodikova [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

\beta

is a root of the quadratic

4 {x}^{2}  - 10x + 5

This quadratic isn't factorable so use the quadratic formula

- b +  -  \sqrt{ \frac{b {}^{2}  - 4ac }{2a} }

The plus and minus sign after b means we going to have two roots.

The roots are

\frac{5 +  \sqrt{5} }{4}

and

\frac{5 -  \sqrt{5} }{4}

We subsitue those values for Beta.

27a.

\frac{5}{2}

27b.
