8 goes with 3/5: 10 goes with n (n being the number of cups)

$\frac{8}{3/5} = \frac{10}{n}$

Use cross products and we get 8n = 6
Now divide by 8
<u>8n</u> = <u>6
</u><u />8 8

n= 6/8 or 3/4 of a cup of flour.

Can someone pls help? ab to fail geometry. any help is nice.

By the law of cosines, the angle $C$ satisfies

$8.77^2=2^2+9^2-2\times2\times9\times\cos C$

which reduces to

$\cos C=0.2246\implies C=\arccos(0.2246)\approx1.34422\text{ rad}$

which converts to approximately 77 degrees (this can be done my multiplying by 180 and dividing by pi).

X and y vary inversely and x=50 when y=5 find y when x=10 what is k?

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Part A)

1) $k=250$

2) $y=25$

Part B)

1) $k=7$

2) $y=84$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) x and y vary inversely and x=50 when y=5 find y when x=10 what is k?

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent an inverse variation if it can be expressed in the form $y*x=k$ or $y=k/x$

step 1

<u>Find the value of k</u>

x=50 when y=5

substitute the values

$y*x=k$ ------> $5*50=k$ -----> $k=250$

The equation is equal to

$y*x=250$ or $y=250/x$

step 2

<u>Find y when x=10</u>

substitute the value of x in the equation and solve for y

$y*(10)=250$

$y=250/10=25$

Part B) x and y vary directly and x=6 when y=42 find k what is y when x=12

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a direct variation if it can be expressed in the form $y/x=k$ or $y=kx$

step 1

<u>Find the value of k</u>

x=6 when y=42

substitute the values

$y/x=k$ ------> $42/6=k$ -----> $k=7$

The equation is equal to

$y/x=7$ or $y=7x$

step 2

<u>Find y when x=12</u>

substitute the value of x in the equation and solve for y

$y=7(12)=84$
