Question:
Find the constant of proportionality k. Then write an equation for the relationship between x and y

Answer:
(a) 
(b) 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given

Solving (a): The constant of proportionality:
Pick any two corresponding x and y values


The constant of proportionality k is:




Solving (b): The equation
In (a), we have:

k can also be expressed as:

Substitute values for x1, y1 and k

Cross multiply:

Open bracket

Add 10 to both sides


If AB ║ CD then <GEB = 50 (corresponding angles are equal)
Answer is B.
<GEB = 50
Answer:
380
Step-by-step explanation:
10%->38
100%-> 38÷10×100=380
He can make 3 batches of soup.
Starting with 10 pounds of tomatoes and taking out the number of pounds he sets aside for spaghetti sauce, 2.8, we have:
10-2.8 = 7.2 pounds left.
0.2 is read as "two tenths," so 7.2 = 7 2/10
We divide this remaining number of pounds by 2 2/5 for each batch of soup:
7 2/10 ÷ 2 2/5
Convert each to an improper fraction:
72/10 ÷ 12/5
Multiply by the reciprocal:
72/10 × 5/12 = 360/120 = 3
To solve this problem we will start by calculating time needed for each of them to fill the pool.
We have formula:
Volume = rate * time
Or
time = volume / rate
Wilma:
time = 9900 / 900
time = 11h
Betty:
time = 9900 / 500
time = 19.8h
Now we substract these two numbers:
time_difference = 19.8 - 11 = 8.8h
Betty needs 8.8 hours more than Wilma to fill the pool.
