Answer:

The missing value y=12.5 and we have (5,12.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula used for direct variation is:

$y\: \alpha \:x\\y=kx$

We need to find missing value (2,5)(5,y)

First we will find k, and then y

We have x=2, y=5

Find k:

$y=kx\\5=k(2)\\k=\frac{5}{2}\\k=2.5$

Now, we cam find missing value in (5,y)

We have x=5, k=2.5 and y=?

$y=kx\\y=2.5(5)\\y=12.5$

So, the missing value y=12.5 and we have (5,12.5)

Answer:

water

Step-by-step explanation:

Comparison of numbers can be done a couple of different ways. One way is to subtract one from the other. If the difference is positive, the minuend (first number) is the larger of the two.

Another way is to divide one number by the other. If the ratio is more than 1, then the numerator is the larger number.

For numbers in scientific notation, the division is perhaps the easiest. Here, that gives you ...

$\displaystyle\frac{\text{water mass}}{\text{oxygen mass}}=\frac{2.99\times10^{-26}\text{ kg}}{2.66\times10^{-26}\text{ kg}}=\frac{2.99}{2.66}\approx 1.12$
