This is only one equation. It is therefore not a system and you can not solve for two different variables y and z unless you have another equation to solve with. It.
Given the length of the pencil, the length of the marker is 130.8 millimeters.
<h3>What are percentages?</h3>
Percentage can be described as a fraction of an amount expressed as a number out of hundred. Percentages are represented %.
<h3>How long is the marker?</h3>
Length of the marker = (1 + percentage) x length of the pencil
(1.09) x 120 = 130.8 millimeters

Answer:
1.778 times more or 16/9 times more
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
- Mirror 1: D_1 = 8''
- Mirror 2: D_2 = 6"
Find:
Compare the light gathering power of an 8" primary mirror with a 6" primary mirror. The 8" mirror has how much light gathering power?
Solution:
- The light gathering power of a mirror (LGP) is proportional to the Area of the objects:
LGP ∝ A
- Whereas, Area is proportional to the squared of the diameter i.e an area of a circle:
A ∝ D^2
- Hence, LGP ∝ D^2
- Now compare the two diameters given:
LGP_1 ∝ (D_1)^2
LGP ∝ (D_2)^2
- Take a ratio of both:
LGP_1/LGP_2 ∝ (D_1)^2 / (D_2)^2
- Plug in the values:
LGP_1/LGP_2 ∝ (8)^2 / (6)^2
- Compute: LGP_1/LGP_2 ∝ 16/9 ≅ 1.778 times more
Answer:
$69,600
Step-by-step explanation:
$14,500 in 5 months,
14,500/5=2,900
so he makes $2,900 each month,
1 year=12 months
2 years=24 months
-------------------------------------------------
2900*24=69600
so he expects to make $69,600 in two years.
