<h3>Answer:   p = 48</h3>

===========================================================

Explanation:

We're told that "p is directly proportional to the square of q", which means that we have the equation

p = k*q^2

for some constant k

Replace p with 12 because we're also told that p = 12.

So we now have this equation

12 = k*q^2

which is the same as

kq^2 = 12

We'll use this later.

-----------------------

Let's go back to the original equation. We'll replace q with 2q to represent the value of q doubling

p = k*q^2

p = k*(2q)^2 ... replace q with 2q

p = k*4q^2

p = 4k*q^2

p = 4*(kq^2)

p = 4(12) ...... replace kq^2 with 12

p = 48

Therefore, if q is doubled, then p = 12 quadruples to p = 48.

Mg+rg=2H, solve for g
lesantik [10]

Answer:

g = 2H/(m + r)

Step-by-step explanation:

mg + rg = 2H

g(m + r) = 2H

(g(m + r))/(m + r) = 2H/(m + r)

g = 2H/(m + r)

I=k/d^2

4=k/d^2 and 1=k/64  so if we divide the first by the second we get:

4/1=(k/d^2)/(k/64)

4=(k/d^2)*(64/k)

4=64/d^2

d^2=64/4

d^2=16

d=4 meters

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

The scale factor is 18 to 1 for the painting

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we want to get the scale factor of the original to what is reproduced

Let us have same units first

Mathematically;

1 foot = 12 inches

3 feet = 36 inches

2 feet = 24 inches

So 36 to 2 and 24 to 1 1/3

That will be ratio 36/2 = 18 to 1

same as 25 divided by 1 1/3 = 18 to 1
