Answer:

k = 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard equation of a proportional relationship is

y = kx ← k is the constant of proportion

y = 0.25x ← is in this form

with k = 0.25

If x=z+8 where z varies inversely as y and z=2 when y=3 find relation between y and x?

sattari [20]

Answer:

y = 6/(x - 8).

Step-by-step explanation:

z = k/y where k is a constant

2 = k/3

k = 6.

So z = 6/y

and x = 6/y + 8

Multiply through by y:

xy = 6 + 8y

xy - 8y = 6

y(x - 8) = 6

y = 6/(x - 8)

The roof leading to the top of a hill has an angle of elevation of 23 degrees. The hill is 120 feet high what is the leanth of t

Tresset [83]

Answer: $307.11\ ft$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The height of hill is 120 ft and the angle of elevation is $23^{\circ}$

Suppose the length of the road is $x$

From the figure, we can write

$\Rightarrow \sin 23^{\circ}=\dfrac{120}{x}\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{120}{\sin 23^{\circ}}\\\\\Rightarrow x=307.11\ ft$

Thus, the length of the road is $307.11\ ft$
