As y varies directly with x, there is a proportionality constant. As x increases by that certain constant, y also increases. We equate:
y = kx
where k = proportionality constant.
Given the condition, y = 5 when x = 4, then we solve for k:
5 = k(4)
k = 5/4 or 1.25
When y = 8, then
8 = (5/4)(x)
x = 8/(5/4) = (8)(4/5) = 32/5 or 6.4 (ANSWER)
I don't know but I guess there is an answer
Use KMF (Keep multiply flip)
keep the first fraction as it is
change sign to multiplication
flip numerator and denominator of last fraction
then finish
Answer:Number of minutes of second Song = 5 1/4 minutes
Number of minutes of third Song =3 1/2 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of minutes of First Song = 3 1/2 minutes
Number of minutes of second Song = one 1/2 times as long as her first
= 1 1/2 X 3 1/2 minutes
3/2 X 7/2
21/4 = 5 1/4 minutes
Number of minutes of third Song = 2/3 times as long as her second song
2/ 3 x 5 1/4
= 2/3 x 21/4 =42/12
Dividing the numerator and denominator by 3 to reduce the fraction
42/ 12 / 3/3 = 14/4
14/4 = 3 2/4 = 3 1/2 minutes
