Answer:

150

Step-by-step explanation:

When y is directly proportional to x, y=kx and k=\frac{y}{x}.

With the corresponding values we already know (3, 15), we can work out k.

k=\frac{y}{x}, which is k=\frac{15}{3} or k=5 when using those values.

Now that we know k, we can use it in the equation y=kx to get y.

We can substitute x for 30, as that's what we are working out, and k for 5 (as worked out above) to get y=30×5, which can be solved to y=150.

A circular garden has a diameter of 6 feet. Which of the following is closest to the area of the garden?
oksian1 [2.3K]
The answer to this problem is 'B'.

This is because to find the area of a circle your formula is
A = 3.14•r²
So your first step is

1. Find the radius by dividing the diameter (6) by 2
6/2 = 3 Radius= 3

Now that you have found the radius (3) plug the number in the formula
2. A = 3.14•3²
OR
A = 3.14•3•3

Finally, solve the last step - Find the area
3.14 • 3 • 3 = 28.26
A = 28.26

ollegr [7]

.60 \times 700 = 420 \\ 700 - 420 = 280
First I found the number of adults by multiplying .60 by 700. It was 420. From there all I had to do was subtract it from 700. Revealing the number of children to be 280.
