The quantity y varies directly as x and inversely as z. When x is 10 and z is 4, y is 15. What is y when x is 20 and z is 6?

1 answer:

8 0

Y=(kx)/z

15=(k10)/4
15=(5k/2)
15=k(5/2)
ties both sides by 2/5 to clear fraction
6=k

y=(6x)/z

x=20
z=6
y=(6*20)/6
y=20

Answer:

I think you meant 4/20 but thats 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

U don't have to put this on the calculator because 20 to be 100 you have to multiply it by 5. So 4 times 5 is 20 so its 20% hope I helped :DD

Please answer the question in the picture above

Andreas93 [3]

The difference between the masses is
4.55·10¹³ kg -1.78·10¹² kg
= 4.55·10¹³ kg - 0.178·10¹³ kg
= (4.55 -0.178)·10¹³ kg
= 4.372·10¹³ kg

Rounded to the appropriate precision, the mass of the Antarctic iceberg exceeds that of the Rock of Gibraltar by ...
4.37·10¹³ kg
