<u>Question Completion</u>

a) Find the constant of proportionality.

b) Write an equation relating V and A.

c) How much paint would be needed to cover an area of 180 square feet? Answer:

(a)k=\frac{1}{15} \\\\(b)V=\frac{1}{15}A

(c)12 Liters

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of paint used, V liters, is directly proportional to the area, A square feet, that the paint can cover.

This is written as:

V \propto A\\V=kA,$ where k is the constant of proportionality

(a)5 liters of paint can cover a wall with an area of 75 square feet.

V=5 liters, A=75 square feet.

Substitution into V=kA

5=75k

k=5/75

\text{Constant of proportionality, k}=\dfrac{1}{15}

(b)Substitution of k=\dfrac{1}{15} into V=kA

The equation relating V and A is:

V=\frac{1}{15}A

(c)If A=180 Square feet

Volume of paint needed,

V=\frac{1}{15} X 180\\=12$ liters

Which relationship describes angles 1 and 2?
stiks02 [169]
They are vertical angles and here’s why.

Vertical angles are a pair of opposite angles formed by intersecting lines.

Supplementary angles are two angles that equal 180 when added together.

Adjacent angles are two angles that have a common side and a common vertex.

Complementary angles are two angles that add up to 90 degrees.

Hope this helped!
