Answer:

Area of shape B = 312.5 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of Area of A : Area of B = 12² : 15²

Given that area of A is 200 cm², let the area of shape B = x

Therefore:

200:x = 12²:15²

200/x = 144/225

Cross multiply

144x = 200*225

144x = 45,000

x = 45,000/144

x = 312.5 cm²

Area of shape B = 312.5 cm²

For the equation -4y = 8x whay is the constant of variation

Ierofanga [76]

If you divide both sides by -4 you get

$y=-2x$

So, you wrote the equation in the form y=kx, and in this form k is the constant of variation. So, the constant is -2.
