Answer:

a=3

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for direct proportion is

f = ka

Let f= 42 and a = 7

42 = k*7

Divide each side by 7

42/7 = k7/7

6 =k

f = 6a

Let f = 18

18 = 6a

Divide each side by 6

18/6 = 6a/6

3 =a

Answer:

a = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that F is directly proportional to a, then the equation relating them is

F = ka ← k is the constant of proportion

To find k use the condition F = 42 when a = 7, thus

42 = 7k ( divide both sides by 7 )

6 = k

F = 6a ← equation of proportion

When F = 18, then

18 = 6a ( divide both sides by 6 )

3 = a

Let l, t, b represent the numbers of lions, tigers, bears, respectively.

2l +3t +3b = 156 . . . . . . . 156 meals per day are supplied
l +t = 3b . . . . . . . . . . . . . . there are 3 times as many great cats as bears
l +t +b = 68 . . . . . . . . . . . there are a total of 68 animals

_____
The last 2 equations tell you
.. 4b = 68
.. b = 17
Subtracting 3 times the last equation from the first gives
.. -l = -48
There are 48 lions, 3 tigers, and 17 bears.
