Answer:

k=\frac{p}{rs}

Second option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that p varies jointly with r and s.

Thus, we can write it mathematically as

p=krs

Here, k is the constant of variation.

Now, we have to find the value of k.

Divide the above equation by rs

\frac{p}{rs}=\frac{krs}{rs}\\\\k=\frac{p}{rs}

Hence, the value of k is k=\frac{p}{rs}

Second option is correct.

The correct answer is p/rs.

In order to find this first state the direct variation with the constant k included.

p = krs

Now to find the value of k, we simply divide away the r and s

p/rs = k

The Ms Jodi has 950 non fiction books. 40% of those books are about science topics and 30% are about history. How many books are
Bad White [126]

Step-by-step explanation:

well first you need to divide all the percents by 100.

40% = .40

30%= .30

and now you need to multiply those two by 950.

.40/950=4.20

.30/950=3.15

so ms jodi has about 3 books on history
