Write an equation to model this proportional relationship, where x represents the length of the rectangle and y represents the w
Kay [80]

When Area of rectangle is constant, then the length x is inversely proportional to the width y of the rectangle.

x\propto  \frac{1}{y}

We know that the area of a rectangle is given by the product of the length and width of the rectangle.

Area = Length*Width

In this given problem,

The length of the rerectanglctangle is represented by x

and the width of the rectangle is represented by y

If the area of the rectangle is represented by A now.

So by the formula,

A = x*y

When A is constant then,

x = A/y

\therefore x \propto \frac{1}{y}

So from the above calculation we can conclude that about relation between length and width that,

"When Area of rectangle is constant, then the length x is inversely proportional to the width y of the rectangle."

A jar contains n nickels and d dimes. There is a total of 253 coins in the jar. The value of the coins is $15.95. How many nicke
defon

There are 187 nickels and 66 dimes in the jar.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total coins = 253

Value of coins = $15.95 = 15.95*100 = 1595 cents

Value of each nickel = 5 cents

Value of each dime = 10 cents

According to given statement;

x+y=253     Eqn 1

5x+10y=1595     Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 5

5(x+y=253)\\5x+5y=1265\ \ \ Eqn\ 3

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

(5x+10y)-(5x+5y)=1595-1265\\5x+10y-5x-5y=330\\5y=330

Dividing both sides by 5

\frac{5y}{5}=\frac{330}{5}\\y=66

Putting y=66 in Eqn 1

x+66=253\\x=253-66\\x=187

There are 187 nickels and 66 dimes in the jar.

Fantom [35]
6m Divided by 2.7 Seconds

 2.22222222 Meters per second is end velocity
the change in velocity is Start velocity (0m/s) - end velocity (2.222222222m/s)
So the Change in velocity is 2.222222222m/s
To find acceleration it is Change in velocity (2.2222222m/s)/Time (2.7m/s)
