The chef has less than 25.8 pounds of rice.

She takes out 5 pounds to use during the day and stores the rest in containers.

Quantity of rice stored = 25.8 - 5 = 20.8 pounds

Each container can store 2.5 pounds of rice.

Let x represent the number of containers.

The number of containers that can be filled = 20.8/2.5 = 8.32

So, the maximum number of containers the chef will be able to fill with rice is 8

Cole has a rectangular garden with an area of 16.02 square meters. What is the width, in meters, of the garden?
exis [7]

Answer:

3.56m

Step-by-step explanation:Parameters given:

Area of the rectangular garden = 16.02m^2

Length of the rectangular garden = 4.5m

The Area of a rectangle can be calculated for using the formula below

Area (square meters) = length (meters) × width (meters)

Therefore, 16.02m^2 = 4.5m × width

Width = 16.02m^2 / 4.5m

Width = 3.56m

Therefore the width in meters of the garden is 3.56m

See the attachment below for an illustrative diagram

A = area

l = length

w = width

Answer:

a.  4y =12x  the constant of variation is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for direct variation is y=kx

a.  4y =12x

 Divide each side by 4

4y/4 = 12x/4

 y = 3x

This is direct variation and the constant is 3


Equations b ,c, d  all have a constant added which make them something other than a direct variation
