Answer:

Neither are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of legs = the number of ants * 6.

The relationship is L = 6 a   so neither are correct.

Answer: Both equations are incorrect.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ants have 6 legs:

The equation of Elena is:

a = 6*L

where a is ants and L is legs.

this equation says that are equal number of ants tan 6 times the number of legs, this is is not the case;

the number of legs is six times the number of ants, because each ant has 6 legs: L =6*a

the Andre equation is:

L = 0.166*a

Which, again, it is incorrect.

in this case the equation should be:

a = 0.166*L

and the ratio of ants to legs is 1:6 wich means that there is one ant for each 6 legs.

Both options are incorrect

Answer:

AEB =305° as stated below

Step-by-step explanation:

AEB is the larger area starting A to EB and missing out the small AB area

EC = 180° = supplementary we label 87° angle to P.

P+ BCD = 87, + 38 = 125°

ABCD = 180°

180 - BCD = 180-125°

AB = 55°

Therefore AEB = 360-55=305°

What is the slope of the line that contains the points (1 -1) and (-2 8)
wel

The slope of the line that contains the points (1 -1) and (-2 8) is -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope measures the steepness of a line. It is the ratio of vertical change to horizontal change. If the line increasing, the slope is positive and if the line is decreasing the slope is negative. If the line is horizontal slope is zero and if the line is vertical slope is undefined.

Equation for slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

here y2= 8

x2=-2

y1=-1

x1=1

Substituting the following,

slope = (8+1)/(-2-1)

=9/-3

=-3

hence the slope is -3

Complete the equation of variation where y varies inversely as x. one pair of values is y = 45 when x = 20.
Zielflug [23.3K]
Inversely proportional means y=k/x, whereas k is constant. hence when y=45,x=20
45=k/20
k=900
ans: y=900/x
