Not quite sure but:
2/3 = 3/4
divide all by 2/3 to get a 1 value so
1 = 0.8
Answer:
19 are blue
37
Step-by-step explanation:
35 - 16 = 19
35 + 3 = 38 & 75 - 38 = 37
Effectively Jock gets 1km further every round of 1:10 hrs. After 8 rounds he has reached 8km (after just having floated back from 9 to 8). The next round he completes the journey without floating.
So total 9 hours of swim and 8*10 minutes of float, that's 10 hours and 20 minutes.
Okay I think there has been a transcription issue here because it appears to me there are two answers. However I can spot where some brackets might be missing, bear with me on that.
A direct variation, a phrase I haven't heard before, sounds a lot like a direct proportion, something I am familiar with. A direct proportion satisfies two criteria:
The gradient of the function is constant s the independent variable (x) varies
The graph passes through the origin. That is to say when x = 0, y = 0.
Looking at these graphs, two can immediately be ruled out. Clearly A and D pass through the origin, and the gradient is constant because they are linear functions, so they are direct variations.
This leaves B and C. The graph of 1/x does not have a constant gradient, so any stretch of this graph (to y = k/x for some constant k) will similarly not be direct variation. Indeed there is a special name for this function, inverse proportion/variation. It appears both B and C are inverse proportion, however if I interpret B as y = (2/5)x instead, it is actually linear.
This leaves C as the odd one out.
I hope this helps you :)
