Answer:

K=13,5

y=13,5x, x=numbers of hours

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the  proporcionality constant, divide the number of milles traveled in given time.

K=54/4=67,5/5=81/6=13.5 and the equation that describes the relationship is y=13,5x

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The constant of proportionality (known as "speed" in this case) is 12.5 miles per hour. 

d= 12.5 x t 

To find the constant of proportionality, divide one value in each pair by the other. If this relationship is a true direct proportionality , when you repeat these for every pair, your will come up with the same value:

For example

25miles÷2hours=12.5mileshour

A direct proportionality will always result in an equation that resembles this:

y=kx

where y and x are the related quantities and k is the constant of proportionality. If you draw a graph using the values you have, the graph will show a straight line the passes through the origin. The slope of this line will be the constant of proportionality. (And if the values given are real physical quantities, this constant will contain important information about the situation you are studying!)

An electrician needs to run a cable from the top of a 40​-foot tower to a transmitter box located 30 feet away from the base of
grin007 [14]
The cable should be 50 feet.

If you draw the picture, you will see that you have a right triangle.

Let's just use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the hypotenuse (or cable).

30^2 + 40^2 = c^2
2500 = c^2
50 = c

Answer:

What is the simplified form of this expression?

7a2 + 10a − 3a − 2a2

Step-by-step explanation:

7a2 + 10a − 3a − 2a2

Combine like terms

742 + 10a - 3a - 2a2

742 + 7a - 2a2

solution=

5a2 + 7a

Sophie borrowed $2000 and took 3 years to repay the loan and $900 interest.
dedylja [7]
I = p * r * n

i is the interest
p is the principal
r is the interest rate per time period
n is the number of time periods.

in your problem:

i = 900
p = 2000
r = what you want to find
n = 3 years

formula becomes 900 = 2000 * r * 3

solve for r to get r = 900 / 2000 / 3 = .15

that's .15 interest rate per year = 15% per year.

at a nominal interest rate of .15 per year, the interest rate per month would be .15/12 = .0125 per month.

the remaining balance at the end of 6 month is equal to 1907.140183
