Hello there.

Question: <span>Mr. Nicolas is putting up strings of blue and white lights for the holidays. The ratio of blue to white lights is 5 to 6. If he has 77 strings, how many strings are white lights?

Answer: 5:6
Add the numbers:
5 + 6 = 11
Divide this number by the total:
77/11 = 7
Multiply values by this number:
5 x 7 = 35
6 x 7 = 42
To check:
35 + 42 = 77.
Therefore your answer is 42.

</span>Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck Studying ^-^

A quantity, t, varies inversely with a quantity, r. If t = 6, then r = 5.
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

Step any explanation:

t & 1/r

t = k/r

When t =6 and r = 5

k = tr

k = 6×5

k = 30

Constant of proportionality is equal 30

Answer: The walking path around it.

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember the Pythagorean's theorem, for a triangle rectangle with catheti A and B, and with hypotenuse H, we have:

A^2 + B^2 = H^2

or

H = √(A^2 + B^2)

Here, A + B is the total distance for the path, while the hypotenuse is the distance for the bridge

Here we can see that:

A = 1170 ft

B = 520 ft

Then:

H = √( (520 ft)^2 + (1170 ft)^2) = 1280.4 ft

Now, let's compute the costs.

For the bridge, we know that each foot costs $11, then for 1280.4 ft the cost is:

Cost of the bridge = (1280.4)*$11 = $14,084.4

And for the walking path, the cost is $6 per foot, then the total cost of the path is:

Cost of the path = (520 ft + 1170 ft)*$6 = $10,140

We know that the bridge is preferred if it is within the range of $1500 for the path's cost.

This range is:

($10,140 - $1,500, $10,140 + $1,500) = ($8,640, $11,640)

Here we can see that the cost of the bridge does not belong to this range, (is higher) so the option we should recommend is the walking path around.
