Answer:

Final answer is y=36 and the constant of variation is k=9/5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the variable y varies directly to the variable x.

Then we can write equation as y=kx

Were k is the constant of variation.

Given that If y = 9, then x = 5.

Plug these values into above equation, we get:

y=kx

9=5k

5k=9

k=9/5

Now we need to find the value of y when x = 20. So plug x = 20 and k=9/5 into above formula

y=kx

y=(9/5)(20)

y=180/5

y=36

Hence final answer is y=36 and the constant of variation is k=9/5.

For this case we have that if "and" varies directly proportional to "x", it follows that:

y = kx

Where:

k: It is the constant of proportionality.

Then, we look for the value of "k":

9 = k (5)\\k = \frac {9} {5}

So, now we look for the value of "y" when x = 20.

y = \frac {9} {5} (20)\\y = \frac {180} {5}\\y = 36

Thus, the value of y is 36

Answer:

y = 36

28) Find the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 2.5 inches. (it = 3.14)
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer: Circumference = 7.85 inches

Concept:

Here, we need to know the idea of circumference.

The circumference is the perimeter of a circle. The perimeter is the curve length around any closed figure.

Circumference = 2πr

r = radius

π = constant

Solve:

<u>Given information</u>

r = (1/2) d = (1/2) (2.5) = 1.25 inches

π = 3.14

<u>Given formula</u>

Circumference = 2πr

<u>Substitute values into the formula</u>

Circumference = 2 · (3.14) · (1.25)

<u>Simplify by multiplication</u>

Circumference = (2.5) · (2.14)

Circumference = \boxed {7.85 inches}

Hope this helps!! :)
