\bf \begin{array}{llllll}
\textit{something}&&\textit{varies inversely to}&\textit{something else}\\ \quad \\
\textit{something}&=&\cfrac{{{\textit{some value}}}}{}&\cfrac{}{\textit{something else}}\\ \quad \\
y&=&\cfrac{{{\textit{k}}}}{}&\cfrac{}{x}
\\
&&y=\cfrac{{{  k}}}{x}
\end{array}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
\textit{p is inversely proportional to the cube of (q-2)}\implies p=\cfrac{k}{(q-2)^3}
\\\\\\
now \quad 
\begin{cases}
p=6\\
q=3
\end{cases}\implies 6=\cfrac{k}{(3-2)^3}

solve for "k", to find k or the "constant of variation"

then plug k's value back to \bf p=\cfrac{k}{(q-2)^3}

now.... what is "p" when q = 5?  well, just set "q" to 5 on the right-hand-side, and simplify, to see what "p" is

Factor the expression by finding the GCF. 16m2 − 12m
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

4m(4m-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

16m^2 − 12m

16 m^2 = 2*2*2*2*m*m

12m = 2*2*3*m

The greatest factor for 16m^2 and 12m is 2*2*m  or 4m

Factor out 4m

16 m^2 = 2*2*2*2*m*m = 4m(2*2m)=4m(4m)

12m = 2*2*3*m = 4m(3)

Factoring out 4m

16m^2 − 12m

4m(4m-3)

PLZZZZ HELPPPPPPP!!!!
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer: The height of the building is 50.75 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio between the height of the object and the casted shadow must be equal for all the objects, as the angle at which the source if light impacts them is the same.

For the person, we know that it is 5.8ft tall, and the shadow is 3.2ft long.

The ratio will be: 5.8ft/3.2ft = 1.8125

Now, if H is the height of the building, and the shadow that the building casts is 28ft, we must have:

H/28ft = 1.8125

Now we can solve this for H.

H = 1.8125*28ft = 50.75 ft

Then the height of the building is 50.75 feet.

Can someone please help me!
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

The Answer is x=6 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The Area of a triangle is A= 1/2 bh, so we should think of the triangle as half of a square/rectangle. This means the total area of the theoritical Square is 400 sq ft. We then figure out this equation:

12 * 5x = 400

400/12 = 5x

80/12 = x which is equal to 6 2/3.

Hope this helps!
