Find AC using Pythagorean theorem
6^2 + 8^2 = AC^2
36 + 64 = AC^2
100 = AC^2
10 = AC
6+8+10 = 24
24/60 = 2/5
10/x = 2/5
50 = 2x
25 = x

Answer k=16
A recipe says to use 3 cups of flour to make 48 cookies.
the number of cookies made, y, to the number of cups of flour used,x .
Than
y = kx
Where k is the constant of proportionality.
48 = 3k
k = 16
Therefore the constant of proportionality is 16.

First, let's make the mixed fraction improper:
- (3 3/8)
- { [(8 · 3) + 3]/8}
- { [24 + 3]/8}
- {27/8}
- (3 3/8) - (7/8)
- (27/8) - (7/8)
as the denominators are equal, we operate only with the numerators
- 34/8 <em>simplifying</em>
<h2>- 17/4</h2>
