Answer: it is a direct variation.

Justification:

In a direct variation the variables are related by a proportionality constant in this way:

y = k x

Tthan means that the value of y is always the product of a constant times the value of x.

The situation discribed for the coal may be written as:
number of tons of coal burned: c

number of hours: h

⇒ c = k × h

Which is that you can calcualte the number of tons of coal burned at any time, once you know the proportionality constant k.

Question 5^ Need help ... ASAP ... your help is really appreciated ...
goblinko [34]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

I think we had a question similar to this before. Again, let's figure out the vertical and horizontal distances figured out. The distance from C at x=8 to D at x=-5 is 13 units while the distance from C at y=-2 to D at y=9 is 11 units. (8+5=13 and 2+9=11, even though some numbers are negative, we're looking at their value in those calculations)

Next, we have to divide each distance by 4 so we can apply it to the ratio. 13/4=\frac{13}{4} and 11/4=\frac{11}{4}. Next, we need to read the question carefully. It's asking us to place the point in the ratio <em>3</em> to <em>1</em> from <em>C</em> to <em>D</em>. The point has to be closer to endpoint D because of this. Let's take each of our fractions, multiply them by 3, then add them towards the direction of endpoint D to get our answer (sorry if that sounds confusing):

\frac{13}{4}*3 = \frac{39}{4}\\ 8-\frac{39}{4} =  \frac{-7}{4}\\\frac{11}{4}*3 = \frac{33}{4}  \\-2+\frac{33}{4} = \frac{25}{4}

Therefore, our point that partitions CD into a 3:1 ratio is (\frac{-7}{4}, \frac{25}{4}).

I'm not sure if there was more to #5 judging by how part B was cut off. From what I can understand of part B, however, I believe that Beatriz started from endpoint D and moved towards C, the wrong direction. She found the coordinates for a 1:3 ratio point.

Also, for #6, since a square is a 2-dimensional object, the answer needs to be written showing that. The answer for #6 is 9 units^2.

Answer:

m =  \frac{2k}{v^{2} }

Step-by-step explanation:

k  =  \frac{1}{2} mv ^{2}

v ^{2} m = 2k

m =  \frac{2k}{v ^{2} }

Gennadij [26K]

Answer: 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is for us to calculate the amount of juice that's left.

We are told that Luna mixes 3/4 of orange juice and 3/8 of cranberry juice. The amount of juice mixed will be:

= 3/4 + 3/8

= 6/8 + 3/8

= 9/8

= 1 1/8

We are then told that she gave Mags 5/8 cup of juice. The amount of juice that's then left will be:

= 1 1/8 - 5/8

= 4/8

= 1/2

1/2 cup of juice will be left
