Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
14/14=1
56/14=4
Direct Proportion functions look like this:
y=kx
'k' is the constant of proportionality and in this case its 7.5 or 15/2.
--------------------------------------------
When x=1, y=7.5
When x=2, y=15
When x=3, y=22.5
Therefore y is directly proportional to x.
--------------------------------------
DIRECT PROPORTION EXPLAINED:
Say a football costs £7.50. If you buy one football you'll have to pay out £7.50, but if you you buy two footballs you'll have to pay out £15.00. Therefore the cost of the football(s) is directly proportional to the amount of footballs you buy. C=cost, f=football(s) and C<span>∝f, therefore C=kf, but as k=7.5, C=7.5f.
INVERSE PROPORTION EXPLAINED:
If it were to take 8 hours for one bricklayer to set up a wall, how long would it take for two bricklayers to set up a wall? The answer in this case would be 4 hours.
T=time to set up a wall
b=bricklayer(s)
Therefore T</span><span>∝1/b, and T=k/b. In this case k=8 so T=8/b.
When b=1, T=8.
When b=2, T=4.
We'd say that the time it would take for bricklayers to set up a wall would be inversely proportional to the amount of bricklayers available.</span>
First, distribute the 2 across the parenthesis.
10-3v+9v=28
Combine like terms on the left.
10+6v=28
Start to get the numbers on the right and the v alone on the left by moving the 10 to the right.
6v=28-10
6v=18
Divide to get the v alone.
v=3
Hope that helps.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Before comparison can take place, these three measurements must be expressed in the same unit of measurement:
130 inches becomes 130/12 feet, or 10.83 ft;
4 yards becomes 4*3 feet, or 12 feet; qne
10 feet stays as is.
It becomes obvious that the greatest measurement is 12 feet, followed by 10.83 feet, followed by 10 feet.
