If y varies directly as x, and y is 18 when x is 5, which expression can be used to find the value of y when x is 11?

1 answer:

7 0

Y=kx is the direct variation equation
First plug in the x, y values given to find K
18=k(5)
18/5=k
3.6 = k
Use the k and write a new equation.
y=3.6x
Plug in the x value to solve for y.
y = 3.6(11)
y= 39.6

Ronald Dairo is helping the local indus-

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Mr. Dairo can produce 20580 pieces of Papaya rosette in two weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Papaya rosette pieces on first day = 5890

Papaya rosette Pieces on second day = 7020

Papaya rosette Pieces of third day = 8150

Let

$a_1 = 5890\\a_2 = 7020\\a_3 = 8150$

We can check if these numbers are part of a sequence.

In order to check, common difference will be found first.

$d = a_2-a_1 = 7020-5890 = 1130\\d =a_3-a_2 = 8150-7020 = 1130$

It can be observed that the common difference is same. When the common difference is same, the sequence is said to be an arithmetic sequence.

The formula for arithmetic sequence is given by:

$a_n = a_1+(n-1)d$

Putting the values

$a_n = 5890+(n-1)(1130)\\a_n = 5890+1130n-1130\\a_n =4760+1130n$

The formula for nth term can be used to find any term. As we have to find the number of papaya rosette pieces after two weeks which means that we need to find the number of pieces on 14th day.

So,

$a_{14}= 4760+1130(14)\\a_{14} = 4760+15820\\a_{14} = 20580$

Hence,

Mr. Dairo can produce 20580 pieces of Papaya rosette in two weeks.

What is the perimeter in units of this rectangle?

Aleks04 [339]

16 units. The long side is 7. And the short sides are 1. 7+1=8. Then you would multiply that by 2. Since each value should represent two sides. You get 16 after that

mason used 1/6 of a gram of honey to make 1/12 of a pan of pudding. how many grams of honey are needed to make a full pan of pud

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

2 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

1/12 goes into 1 (representing a full pan) 12 times. This means that 12 spoons of the 1/6 grams are needed to make a full pan of pudding. So, you multiply 12 by 1/6, and that results in 2 grams. You need to have 2 grams of honey to make a full pan of pudding.
