I find that turning the fractions into decimals helps in this situation.
9/16 = 0.5625
8/15 = 0.5333
so 9/16 is greater then 8/15
The distance depends on the time.
So now we need to find the constant of variation or the constant of proportionality.
To do so we must find y(the dependent variable) and x(the independent variable).
To find the constant(k) we must find y/x
Since y/x=k
Then 2.25/.75=k
k=3
Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the measures of two complementary angles is 90°.
m<C + m<D = 90°
5x + 7x - 6 = 90
12x = 96
x = 8
Answer:
CA ≈ 3.1 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle
tan40° = 
= 
= 
( multiply both sides by CA )
CA × tan40° = 2.6 ( divide both sides by tan40° )
CA = 
≈ 3.1 ft ( to the nearest tenth )
Answer:
-3 degrees C
