Using proportions, the approximate length of time, in years, for the watch to lose exactly 24 hours is:
(d) 240.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct or inverse proportional, can be built to find the desired measures in the problem.
24 hours have 24 x 3600 = 86400 seconds, hence the <em>rule of three</em> is given by:
One second - 1/365 year
86400 seconds - x years
Applying cross multiplication:
x = 86400/365
x = 240.
Hence option D is correct.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Area:
π
π *Square 2x*
π *Divide by π*
*Divide by 4*
*Square root*
*Solve*
x ≈ 3.482
Now take the same equation but replace 2x with 3x
π
Now replace x with 3.482 and solve for area.
Volume:
π *Insert variables*
π *Cube 2x*
π *Multiply on both sides*
π *Divide by π*
*Divide by 8*
*Cube root*
*Solve*
x ≈ 2.208
Now take the same equation but replace 2x with 3x
π
Now replace x with 2.208 and solve for volume.
You certainly cannot. This is because you can really only determine size from how many gallons it holds, and shape can differ as long as it can hold the amount needed. Hope this helps.
