Answer:
a = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
4 : 3 = a : 6
Cross multiply
4*6 = a * 3
a = 4 * 2
a = 8
Directly proportional, both increase/decrease, Multiple k(constant you needed to solve for)..
Inversely --one increases as the other decreases, increase the denominator & fraction gets smaller.... So
Problem:
Dirextly to X (× by X)
Inversely to Y, (÷ by Y)
Z= k X/Y
Solve, working backwards: Z =5 becomes
5 = k (X) ÷ (Y). And
X=15 and Y =9 becomes
5= k(15)/(9). Undo ÷9, ×9 both sides
45= k(15). Now undo ×15 by ÷15 both sides
45/15 = 3. So k=3, (also called your constant of variation)....and your Equation/Proportion becomes...
Z = 3X/Y
Use the new #s.... X=23, Y=14
Z= 3×23÷14 = 69/14. If they want spirochete answer divide and round to corresponding # if decimals
The first , second, and fourth options if you are on edge.

Answer:
20 days
Step-by-step explanation:
It takes 12 men 5 days to complete a job. Work out how many days it would take 3 men to complete the same job.
12 * 5 = 60
60/3 = 20
It will take 3 men 20 days to do the same job
