Answer:

d \propto \frac{s}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The time between seeing the lightning and hearing the thunder is s seconds.

The distance d you are from lightning is approximately equal to one-fifth of s seconds.

To Find: Which direct variation equation represents this situation?

Solution:

d denotes the distance

s denotes The time between seeing the lightning and hearing the thunder

Since we are given that the distance d you are from lightning is approximately equal to one-fifth of s seconds.

\Rightarrow d \propto \frac{1}{5}\times s

\Rightarrow d \propto \frac{s}{5}

Hence the direct variation equation represents this situation is d \propto \frac{s}{5}

The direct variation that can be established using the given parameters is that, the time it takes between seeing the lightning and hearing the thunder is directly related to the speed. 

However, it can also be established that the time described above is inversely proportional to the distance. This can be written as,
         t = k/d
We substitute the given expression for each of the known terms. t is time, s, and d is distance, 3s. 

    s = k/3s

The k written in the equation is the constant of proportionality.

Answer:

31/40

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question with appropriate diagram.

The circle below has an area of 314 square centimeters, and the square inside the circle has a side length of 2 centimeters.

What is the probability that a point chosen at random is in the blue region?

Given the area of the circle to be 314cm², we need to get the diameter of the circle first since the diameter of the circle is equivalent to length of the side of the square inscribed in it.

Using the formula Area of a circle = πr²

314 = 3.14r²

r² = 314/3.14

r² = 100

r = 10 cm

Diameter of the circle = 2*10 = 20 cm

Area of a square = Length * length

Area of the outer square = 20*20 = 400cm²

Area of the inner square with side length 2cm = 2*2 =4cm²

Area of the shaded region = Area of the square - Area of the inner square

= 314-4 = 310cm²

The probability that a point chosen at random is in the blue region = Area of the shaded region/total area of the outer square

= 310/400

= 31/40
