He will spend $66.3 because 78 times 15/100 (which is 15%) is 11.7, and since he reduces the food you will have to subtract 11.7 from $78, to get $66.3
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
The numbers associated with the triangle are 5.437 and 6.437 centimeters, respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
Two numbers are consecutives, when their difference is equal to 1. The area of the triangle is determined by the following formula:



Where
is the shortest length of the triangle, measured in centimeters.
And we get the following second-order polynomial:
(1)
If we know that
, then the shortest length of the triangle is:
and 
Since length is a positive variable, the only possible solution is:

Then, the numbers associated with the triangle are 5.437 and 6.437 centimeters, respectively.
Answer: 1) B is correct, constant of variation is -2.
Step-by-step explanation:
1)
Direct variation states that a relationship between the two variables. we say y varies directly as x
i.e, or y =kx.................[1] ; where k is the constant of variation.
Given the equation:
Divide both sides by -4 we get;
Simplify:
.......[2]
On comparing equation [2] with [1] we get;
k = -2
Answer: 1 is greater 2 is less 3 is greater 4 is less
