Given that the garden is rectangular and a line of roses form the diagonal 18.4 m long, we required to calculate the length of the perpendicular side.
Here we shall use the Pythagorean theorem.
c²=a²+b²
where c is the hypotenuse, a and b are the legs.
from the information given:
c=18.4 m
a=13 m
plugging this into our expression we get:
18.4²=13²+b²
next we solve for the value of b
b²=18.4²-13²
b²=338.56-169
b²=169.56
b=√169.56
b=13.0215
hence the length to the nearest tenth of a meter will be approximately 13.0 m
Answer:
Direct Variation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: A car travels at a distance of 
km. The formula that relates to 
is 
To find: kind of variation
Solution:
The formula that relates to is
Here, 
is a constant of proportionality.
Constant of proportionality is also called as constant of variation.
varies directly as .
Therefore, this is a direct variation.
Answer:
The ordered pairs (3 , 6) , (5 , 10) show a proportional relationship ⇒ last answer
Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets explain how to sole the problem
- Proportional relationship describes a simple relation between
two variables
- In direct proportion if one variable increases, then the other variable
increases and if one variable decreases, then the other variable
decreases
- In inverse proportion if one variable increases, then the other variable
decreases and if one variable decreases, then the other variable
increases
- The ratio between the two variables is always constant
- Ex: If x and y are in direct proportion, then x = ky, where k
is constant
If x and y in inverse proportion, then x = k/y, where k is constant
* Lets solve the problem
# Last table
∵ x = 3 and y = 6
∴ x/y = 3/6 = 1/2
∵ x = 5 and y = 10
∴ x/y = 5/10 = 1/2
∵ 1/2 is constant
∵ x/y = constant
∴ x and y are proportion
* The ordered pairs (3 , 6) , (5 , 10) show a proportional relationship
