Answer:

Constant of proportionality should be 48.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a small pie factory needs to ship 360 pies a day to stay profitable. 180 pies are baked every 3 hours. Of the baked pies, 20% go directly to freezer storage and 80% are loaded on a truck for delivery.

Now we need to find about what is the constant of proportionality for the number of pies baked and loaded on a truck for delivery.

Number of baked pies = 180

Number of pies loaded on truck for delivery = 80% of baked pies

= 0.80(180)= 144 in 3 hours.

So number of pies loaded per hour = 144/3= 48

Hence constant of proportionality should be 48.

Find two unit vectors orthogonal to both given vectors. i j k, 4i k
Maurinko [17]
The cross product of two vectors gives a third vector \mathbf v that is orthogonal to the first two.

\mathbf v=(\vec i+\vec j+\vec k)\times(4\,\vec i+\vec k)=\begin{vmatrix}\vec i&\vec j&\vec k\\1&1&1\\4&0&1\end{vmatrix}=\vec i+3\,\vec j-4\,\vec k

Normalize this vector by dividing it by its norm:

\dfrac{\mathbf v}{\|\mathbf v\|}=\dfrac{\vec i+3\,\vec j-4\,\vec k}{\sqrt{1^2+3^2+(-4)^2}}=\dfrac1{\sqrt{26}}(\vec i+3\,\vec j-4\vec k)

To get another vector orthogonal to the first two, you can just change the sign and use -\mathbf v.

Daisy spent a total of $31 before tax on ice cream. the table below shows the different flavors she bought. a carton of strawber
notsponge [240]
The cost of 1 vanilla ice cream and 1 strawberry ice cream should total to $31. Since you only bought one of each flavor, you simply have to add their unit prices. 

Cost for 1 carton of strawberry ice cream + Cost for 1 carton of vanilla ice cream = Total Cost
Total Cost = s + v  --> this is the general equation

Since s = 1.5 + v, the modified equation would be
Total Cost = 1.5 + v + v
Total Cost = 1.5 + 2v

When writing twenty-one-and-a-half-trillion in scientific notation, what is the exponent needed on the base ten?
Nat2105 [25]
1 trillion is 10^9.

Thus, 21 1/2 trillion is    21 1/2 times 10^9, or 2.15 times 10^10

Hope this helps.  If not, ask for clarification.

Choose the graph below that has an undefined slope.
Ronch [10]

Answer:

The correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first line passing through the points (-6,2) and (-6,0).

The slope of a line is

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

The slope of first line is

m_1=\frac{0-2}{-6-(-6)}=\infty

The second line passing through the points (0,-4) and (-1,1). The slope of second line is

m_2=\frac{1-(-4)}{-1-0}=-5

The third line passing through the points (0,-6) and (2,-6). The slope of third line is

m_3=\frac{-6-(-6)}{2-0}=0

The fourth line passing through the points (0,6) and (-3,-7). The slope of fourth line is


m_4=\frac{-7-6}{-3-0}=\frac{13}{3}

Since the slope of a vertical line is infinity, Therefore option A is correct.
