Answer:

B. increase by a factor of 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to ohms law:

V ∝ R

Vo = IoR

R = Vo/Io ... (1)

Vo is the initial potential difference/voltage

Io is the initial current across the resistor

R is the resistance

If for an Ohmic conductor, we triple the voltage without changing the resistance:

New voltage V1 = 3Vo

New voltage V1 = I1R (resistance doesn't change)

I1 is the current after the voltage has tripled

3Vo = I1R

R = 3Vo/I1... (2)

Equating both resistances in 1 and 2 since resistance doesn't change we have:

Vo/Io = 3Vo/I1

1/Io = 3/I1

I1/Io = 3

New current I1 = 3Io

This shows that tripling the voltage increases the current by factor of 3

the equation of a line is y=-1/2x-2. what is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the first line and passes through
Alexxandr [17]
Perpendicular means that the slopes are negartive inverses, aka
slope1 times slope2=-1

y=mx+b
slope=m

y=-1/2x-2
slope=-1/2

we need to find negative inverse
-1/2 times what=-1
answer is 2

y=2x+b
input the point (2,-2) to find b
(x,y)
(2,-2)
-2=2(2)+b
-2=4+b
minus 4 from both sides
-6=b
y=2x-6

the equtaion is y=2x-6

What is the value of x?<br> (x + 40)<br> (3x)<br> O 20<br> R<br> O<br> O 35<br> O<br> O<br> ASAP
Natasha2012 [34]

Angles TRS and VRW are vertical angles, so we can set them equal to each other to get x:

x+40=3x

40=2x

20=x

So the value of x is 20

Kaitlin, Tony, and Austin sent a total of 103 text messages over their cell phones during the weekend. Austin sent 4 times as ma
emmainna [20.7K]

The number of messages Kaitlyn, Tony and Austin sent are 13, 18 and 72 messages respectively.

<h3>How to write and solve equation?</h3>

let

  • Number of messages Kaitlyn sent = x
  • Number of messages Tony sent = x + 5
  • Number of messages Austin sent = 4(x + 5)
  • Total messages = 103

103 = x + (x + 5) + 4(x + 5)

103 = x + x + 5 + 4x + 20

103 = 6x + 25

103 - 25 = 6x

78 = 6x

x = 78/6

x = 13

Number of messages each sent:

Number of messages Kaitlyn sent = x

= 13 messages

Number of messages Tony sent = x + 5

= 13 + 5

= 18 messages

Number of messages Austin sent = 4(x + 5)

= 4(13 + 5)

= 4(18)

= 72 messages

Is 4/5 greater or less than 45/100 how do you know
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

4/5 is grater than 45/100

Step-by-step explanation:

Why?

because in percentage you make the bottom # a 100 one of them already has that and when it has 100 on the bottom it tells you that the top # is the percentage so 45/100 is 45%

now to make 4/5 a percentage what times 5 = 100?

20 does

so you times the top and bottom by 20

4*20= 80

now your fraction is 80/100  (top # tells you the %)

it's 80%

80% is grater than 45%
