Melanie buys 2 shells for $0.80. Rosi buys 3 shells for $1.20. Carlos buys 4 shells for $1.60. Use the graph to determine whethe

r there is a proportional relationship between the number of shells and their cost. If so, what does the constant of proportionality mean in this situation? Use the drop-down menus to show and explain your answer.

Answer:

There's a proportion relationship between number of shell and their cost

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph is not given.

However, I've added the appropriate graph as an attachment.

From this, point....

I'll show that the cost and number of shells as given in the question are proportional.

Represent cost with y and number of shells with x

x = 2 when y = 0.8

x = 3 when y = 1.2

x = 4 when y = 1.6

Divide each value of y by x to get the constant of proportion (r).

r = y/x

r = 0.8/2 = 0.4

r = 1.2/3 = 0.4

r = 1.6/4 = 0.4

Notice that the values of r remain constant.

Hence, there's a proportion relationship between both

And what this rate represent is that:.the cost of shell changes at a constant rate when the number of shell is changes.

diameter is 15 meters then radius is 15/2 = 7.5 meters

so the amplitude is 7.5 m and height will oscillate with amplitude 7.5 m above and below the center.

midline of the oscillation will be 7.5 m

the wheel.take 8 minutes to complete revolution then it means the height will oscillate with a period of 8 minutes

How much water do you need to add to make each concentration?<br> 1% sugar syrup using 12 g sugar
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

1188 grams of water

Step-by-step explanation:

x is the grams of water

so total is 12+x grams

sugar/total is 12/12+x

and 1% ratio is 12/12+x=1/100

so x would be 1188 grams of water.

Let's play a game of Russian roulette. You are tied to your chair. Here's a gun, a revolver. Here's the barrel of the gun, six c
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Don't spin the barrel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each time you spin the barrel, the probability A of finding a bullet, having two bullets in six chambers is:

P(A)=\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3}=0.33

For you to get shot in the second try but not the first, the barrel spin would have to stop precisely at one specific chamber: the one right before the bullets, so that probability would be:

P(B)=\frac{1}{6}=0.17

which means that this event is half as likely as finding a bullet every time the barrel is spun. Your chances are better if you pull the trigger for the second time without spinning the barrel.
