Answer:

y/x = 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

y ∝ x

change ∝ to = by adding constant k or c

y = kx

Divide both sides by x

y/x = k, also k = y/x

Input the values

k = (7 1/2)/3.  Change 7 1/2 to improper fraction to give 15/2

k = (15/2)/3

k = \frac{15}{2} ÷ 3  

Change the division sign to multiplication which will change 3 to its inverse(1/3)

k = \frac{15}{2} × \frac{1}{3}

k = \frac{15}{6}

Divide the numerator and denominator by 3 to get 5/2

k = 5/2

From y/x = k,input k into the eqn

y/x = 5/2

y/x = 2.5

at right is graph of this situation predict how the line would change to present the average cost of gas in dicember of 2005 whe
Lina20 [59]
The average cost represents the slope of the line of the graph.
Increasing the slope of the graph increases the steepness of the line.
Therefore, increasing the average cost of gas from $1.50 to $2.20 will increases the steepness of the line. (i.e. the line becomes closer to the vertical line).

Kenji packed an exercise ball into a cylindrical package . How much space does the package occupy in terms of pi . Enter your an
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

The space that the package would occupy is 45\pi cubic feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The space that the package occupies is the volume of the cylinder. The volume of an object is the 3 dimensional capacity of the object.

Volume of a cylinder = \pir^{2}h

where: r is the radius and h is the height of the cylinder.

Given that; h = 5 feet and r = 3 feet.

The required volume = \pi × (3)^{2} × 5

                                   = \pi  × 9 × 5

                                  = 45\pi cubic feet

The space that the package would occupy is 45\pi cubic feet.

The diameter of the attic is 18ft and its height is 18ft. What's is the volume of the space in the attic
Svet_ta [14]
I attached an image with the complete question.

Answer:
volume of attic = 1526.04 ft³

Explanation:
Volume of cone can be calculated using the following rule:
Volume = \frac{1}{3} * area of base * height
Volume = \frac{1}{3} * π * radius² * height
We are given that:
π = 3.14
radius = 18/2 = 9 ft
height = 18 ft

Substitute in the equation to get the volume as follows:
Volume = \frac{1}{3} * 3.14 * (9)^2 * (18) = 1526.04 ft³

Hope this helps :)
