Answer:

  y=\dfrac{6xz^2}{w}

Step-by-step explanation:

When y varies jointly as x and z, the equation is written ...

  y = k·x·z

Here, the joint variation is not with z, but with z². There is also an inverse variation with w, so the entire relation is ...

  y = k·x·z²/w

We want to find the value of k for the given values of the variables. So, we can solve for k to get ...

  k=\dfrac{wy}{xz^2}=\dfrac{8\cdot\dfrac{27}{2}}{2\cdot3^2}=\dfrac{4\cdot27}{2\cdot9}=2\cdot3=6

Then the equation of variation is ...

  \boxed{y=\dfrac{6xz^2}{w}}\qquad\textbf{matches B}

PLZ HELP ME OUT How do I know a number is rational or irrational?
Harrizon [31]

Answer: If a number is rational, it can be represented as a simple fraction, it can be written as a terminating decimal, and a repeating decimal.

If a number is irrational, it cannot be represented as a simple fraction, it cannot be written as a terminating decimal, and not as a repeating decimal. It never ends, never repeats, just like the constant pi.

Step-by-step explanation:

So if a number is rational, it can be represented as a simple fraction, it can be written as a terminating decimal, and a repeating decimal.

If a number is irrational, it cannot be represented as a simple fraction, it cannot be written as a terminating decimal, and not as a repeating decimal. It never ends, never repeats, just like the constant pi.

There are two boxes containing only black and orange pens.
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Event 3 -> Event 1 -> Event 4 -> Event 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of choosing a certain pen is the number of that pen in the box over the total number of pens in the box.

So we have that:

Event 1: We have 4 black pen and 20 total pens, so P = 4 / 20 = 1 / 5

Event 2: All pens are black or orange so the probability is 1.

Event 3: We don't have white pens, so the probability is 0.

Event 4: We have 2 black pen and 5 total pens, so P = 2 / 5

Listing from least likely to most likely, we have:

Event 3 -> Event 1 -> Event 4 -> Event 2

A cube has a volume of greater than 123 cm3. What are the possible lengths of the side of that cube?
horrorfan [7]
When we cube root 123, we get a decimal which rounds out to 4.97. So possible side lengths would be any number greater than that.<span />
