Answer:
A. 24 lap/hour.
B. r = 24h
Step-by-step explanation:
Let r be the number laps.
Let h be the time.
From the question given above, the number of laps (r) Jessica runs around the track is proportional to the time (h) she spend running. This can be written as:
r & h
r = Kh
Where:
r is the number of laps.
K is the constant of proportionality.
h is the time.
A. Determination of the constant of proportionality.
With the above formula, we can calculate the value of the constant of proportionality, K as follow:
Number of laps (r) = 12 laps
Time (h) = ½ hour
Constant of proportionality (K) =.?
r = Kh
12 = K × ½
12 = K/2
Cross multiply
K = 12 × 2
K = 24 lap/hour
Therefore, constant of proportionality is
24 lap/hour.
B. Equation for relationship between the number of lap and time. This is illustrated below:
r = Kh
K = 24
r = 24h
Therefore, the equation for relationship between the number of lap and time is r = 24h
If I understand you, a person eats about 14 pounds of turkey a year. So we will divide all that turkey (1120 pounds) by 14 to find out how many years.
1,120 ÷ 14 = 80 So it will take 80 years. (Since babies can't eat that much turkey a year it will actually take more than 80 years - or the person can eat more than 14 pounds in some years to make up for their early years when they ate less) I know it's a math question, but I also like to be realistic about it. Who measures the amount of turkey they eat yearly anyway? :-)

If you estimated 3.7 to 4 and 5.1 to 5 the answer would be 20. You would have 20 and now you can think is 20 a reasonable answer for 3.7x5.1. The answer for 3.7x5.1=18.87, so the answer is yes.
Hope that helped:)
