Let y represent <span>the number of square yards
Let x the number of square feet.
Then y varies directly with x.

y = kx
where k is the constant of variation.
y = 3 yards^2
x  = 27 feet^2

3 = k(27)
k = 3/27
k = 1 yard^2 /9 feet^2

So the constant of variation is </span>1 yard^2 <span>/9 feet^2.</span>

What is the decimal expansion of the following fraction?
pickupchik [31]
You haven't shared a fraction.  Please do that next time.

I checked and have found that 0.045 repeating over the 4 and 5 is equivalent to 1/22.  Try dividing 1 by 22 to verify this.

So I infer that the fraction you haven't yet shared is 1/22.

Suppose that the world's current oil reserves is
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

  A)  R = 1900 -24t

  B)  1684 billion barrels

  C) 79.17 years

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>A)</h3>

Reserves start at 1900 billion barrels and decrease by 24 billion barrels each year. The value for t=0 is 1900; the value for t=1 is 24 less.

  R = 1900 -24t

__

<h3>B)</h3>

For t=9, the reserves will be ...

  R = 1900 -24(9) = 1900 -216 = 1684 . . . . billion barrels

__

<h3>C)</h3>

The reserve will be 0 when ...

  0 = 1900 -24t

  24t = 1900 . . . . . add 24t

  t ≈ 79.17 . . . . divide by 24

Reserves will be gone in about 79.17 years.
