Answer:

\displaystyle y=\frac{7}{4}.x

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Proportional Relationship</u>

It's the type of relationships between two variables where their ratios are equivalent.

In a proportional relationship, one variable is always a constant value by the other. That constant is known as the <em>constant of proportionality</em>.

A proportional relationship between the variables x and y is written as:

y=k.x

For this problem, y represents the cups of water needed for making x loaves of French bread.

We know Marley used y=7 cups of water to make x=4 loaves of French bread. Substituting into the equation:

7=k.4

Solving for k:

\displaystyle k=\frac{7}{4}

The equation to model the problem is:

\mathbf{\displaystyle y=\frac{7}{4}.x}

bearing in mind that, the geometric sequence is "convergent" only when |r|<1, or namely "r" is a fraction between 0 and 1.

Prove algebraically that 0.5 recurring = 5/9
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

We require 2 equations with the recurring part after the decimal point.

Let x = 0.555..... → (1)

Multiply both sides by 10, then

10x = 5.555..... → (2)

Subtract (1) from (2) thus eliminating the recurring decimal

(10x - x) = (5.5555 - 0.5555 ), that is

9x = 5 ( divide both sides by 9 )

x = \frac{5}{9}

Multiply 4x(-3x - 5)
Scilla [17]
Using the distributive property the product is -12x-20. To distribute you take the numbers and or variables outside of the paranthesis and multiply it by each one in the parenthesis  such that 4x is multiplied by -3x getting -12x and multiplying 4x by -5 and the product is -20x and all together the answer is -12x-20

A ball is thrown into the air with a velocity of 34 ft/s. It's height in feet after t seconds is given by y=34t-26(t)^2. Find th
kkurt [141]

Answer:

The average velocity of the ball at the given time interval is -122.3 ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

velocity of the ball, v = 34 ft/s

height of the ball, y = 34t - 26t²

initial time, t₀ = 3 seconds

final time, t = 3 + 0.01 = 3.01 seconds

At t = 3 s

y(3) = 34(3) - 26(3)² = -132

The average velocity of the ball in ft/s is given as;

V_{avg} = \frac{y(3.01)-y(3)}{3.01 -3}\\\\V_{avg} = \frac{34(3.01)-26(3.01)^2-y(3)}{3.01 -3}\\\\V_{avg} = \frac{-133.223-y(3)}{0.01}\\\\V_{avg} = \frac{-133.223-(-132)}{0.01}\\\\V_{avg} =\frac{-1.223}{0.01}\\\\V_{avg} = -122.3 \ ft/s

Therefore, the average velocity of the ball at the given time interval is -122.3 ft/s
