If y varies directly with x, and y = 18 when x = 4, what is the constant of proportionality?

1 answer:

3 0

Y is directly proportional to x and therefore takes the form y=kx where k is the constant of proportionality.

Dividing both sides by x for the given values, k becomes 18/4 = 4.5

What is the measure of an interior angle in a regular octagon?

andrew11 [14]

To find the interior angle of any regular polygon you can use the formula $\frac{(n-2)*180}{n}$ where n is the number of sides
So, $\frac{(8-2)*180}{8} =135$
The measure of an interior angle in a regular octagon is 135

The Earth's circumference measured at the equator is approximately 1.3148 × 108 feet. What is the number written in standard for

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

The number written in standard form is $131,480,000$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$1.3148*10^8$

we know that

$10^8=100,000,000$

substitute

$1.3148*10^8=1.3148(100,000,000)$

Remember that

When multiplying decimals by 10, move the decimal point one space to the right

In this case move the decimal point eight spaces to the right

$1.3148(100,000,000)=131,480,000$

therefore

The number written in standard form is $131,480,000$
