Answer:

= 6% increase in original amount

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Original: 85

new: 90

Difference = 90 - 85 = 5

Now we have to find that;

5 is what percent of 85:

=5/85 * 100

= 5.88%

Rounding off to nearest percent:

= 6% increase in original amount

A farmer wants to fence an area of 13.5 million square feet in a rectangular field and then divide it in half with a fence paral
denis23 [38]

Answer:

  F = 3x +(2.7×10^7)/x

Step-by-step explanation:

The formulas for area and perimeter of a rectangle can be used to find the desired function.

<h3>Area</h3>

The area of the rectangle will be the product of its dimensions:

  A = LW

Using the given values, we have ...

  13.5×10^6 = xy

Solving for y gives ...

  y = (13.5×10^6)/x

<h3>Perimeter</h3>

The perimeter of the rectangle is the sum of the side lengths:

  P = 2(L+W) = 2(x+y)

<h3>Fence length</h3>

The total amount of fence required is the perimeter plus one more section that is x feet long.

  F = 2(x +y) +x = 3x +2y

Substituting for y, we have a function of x:

  F = 3x +(2.7×10^7)/x

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

The length of fence required is minimized for x=3000. The overall size of that fenced area is x=3000 ft by y=4500 ft. Each half is 3000 ft by 2250 ft. Half of the total 18000 ft of fence is used for each of the perpendicular directions: 3x=2y=9000 ft.

Determine the constant of proportionality,k,of Kevin’s wage.
ankoles [38]

Answer:

Kevin's constant of proportionality,k = $8.25 per hour

Greg's constant of proportionality,k = $9 per hour

Savannah's constant of proportionality,k = $9.5 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

1. What is the constant of proportionality, k, of Kevin's wage? Greg's? Savannah's?

Solution

y = kx is a proportional variation

Where,

y and x are represent two different variables

k represent constant of proportionality

From the attached table,

Let

y = wages earned (in dollars)

x = hours worked

To find the constant of proportionality k of Kevin's wage, divide the variable y (total earned) by the variable x (number of hours)

Using any points on the table

Take (8,66.00) for example

constant of proportionality k of Kevin's wage = variable y (total earned) / variable x (number of hours)

= 66.00/8

= 8.25

k = $8.25 per hour

B. Constant of proportionality of Greg's wage = variable y (total earned) / variable x (number of hours)

Using (9, 81.00)

k = 81.00/9

= 9

Greg's k = $9 per hour

C. Constant if proportionality of Savannah's wage = variable y (total earned) / variable x (number of hours)

Using (6, 57.00)

k = 57.00/6

= 9.5

Savannah's k = $9.5 per hour

Therefore,

Kevin's constant of proportionality,k = $8.25 per hour

Greg's constant of proportionality,k = $9 per hour

Savannah's constant of proportionality,k = $9.5 per hour
