Answer:
2 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Number 1 is incorrect because 1/4 x 9 is 2 1/4 not 1 1/4.
To multiply fractions, multiply directly across. So multiply 1/4 x 9/1 to get 9/4 which converted into a mixed number is 2 1/4.
If a football player runs 5/6 of a mile every 3/4th of a hour, that means every 1/4th a hour he runs 1.5/6th of a mile.
That means every 15 minutes the football player runs .2 of a mile. That means that every hour he runs :
0.8 of a mile!
6 remainder 4 because if you do 8x6 you get 48 and if you subtract 48 from 52 you get remainder 4
Answer:
y = 14.5
Step-by-step explanation:
given that y varies directly as x
mathematically,
y ∝ x
y = kx .............................................. where k is the constant of proportionality.
k = y /x
given that
y = 79
x = 49
k = 79/49
k = 1.61
to find y when x = 9
from
y = kx
y = 1.61 × 9
y = 14.5
therefore the value of y when x = 9 in ths variation is evaluated to be equals to 14.5
