If y varies inversely with the square of r, what is the constant of proportionality when y - 10 and 1 = 5?

Anvisha [2.4K]

Question:

If y varies inversely with the square of r, what is the constant of proportionality when y =10 and r = 5?

Answer:

The constant of proportionality is 250

Solution:

Given that,

y varies inversely with the square of r

Which means,

$y \propto \frac{1}{r^2}\\\\y = k \times \frac{1}{r^2}$

Where, "k" is constant of proportionality

Subtitute y = 10 and r = 5

$10 = k \times \frac{1}{5^2}\\\\10 = k \times \frac{1}{25}\\\\k = 10 \times 25\\\\k = 250$

Thus the constant of proportionality is 250

MAXIMUM POINT WILL BE GIVEN!!! I NEED THIS RN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer:

Part a) The variables are

x (the number of packages of Twinkies that were sold)

y (the number o boxes of juice that were sold)

Part b) The system of equations is

$x+y=79$ and $1.65x+1.36y=118.17$

Part c) $x=37,y=42$

Part d) The value of y represent the number of boxes of juice that were sold $y=42\ boxes\ of\ juice$

The value of x represent the number of packages of Twinkies that were sold $x=37\ packages\ of\ Twinkies$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) Define the variables in this situation

Let

x-----> the number of packages of Twinkies that were sold

y----> the number of boxes of juice that were sold

Part b) Write a system of equations that model the problem

we know that

$x+y=79$ ------> equation A

$1.65x+1.36y=118.17$ ---> equation B

Part c) Use the linear combination method to find the solution to the system you wrote in part b

Multiply equation A by -1.65

$-1.65(x+y)=-1.65*79$

$-1.65x-1.65y=-130.35$ ------> equation C

Adds equation C and equation B

$-1.65x-1.65y=-130.35\\1.65x+1.36y=118.17\\---------\\-1.65y+1.36y=-130.35+118.17\\-0.29y=-12.18\\y=42$

Find the value of x

$x+y=79$

$x+42=79$

$x=79-42=37$

Part d) Using a complete sentence, explain what the solution found in part c represents

The value of y represent the number of boxes of juice that were sold

so

$y=42\ boxes\ of\ juice$

The value of x represent the number of packages of Twinkies that were sold

so

$x=37\ packages\ of\ Twinkies$
