Answer: y

=

18

Explanation:

As

y

varies directly as

x

, we have

y

∝

x

. Also it varies inversely as square of

z

, which means

y

∝

1

z

2

.

Hence,

y

∝

x

z

2

or

y

=

k

×

x

z

2

, where

k

is a constant.

Now when

x

=

80

and

z

=

4

,

y

=

10

, so

10

=

k

×

80

4

2

=

k

×

80

16

=

5

k

Hence

k

=

10

5

=

2

and

y

=

2

x

z

2

.

So when

x

=

36

and

z

=

2

,

y

=

2

×

36

2

2

=

72

4

=

18

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer: 0.15(40) + 0.6(x – 40) = 0.25(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation with the information given:  

Fifteen percent of the pigment in paint color A is black

15% = 15/100 = 0.15 (decimal form)

0.15 A

Sixty percent of the pigment in paint color B is black

0.6 B

An unknown amount of paint color B is mixed with 40 ml of paint color A,

SO:

0.15 (0.40)  

0.6 (x-0.40)

x = total amount of paint in the mixture of the two colors

The result is a paint that contains 25% (0.25 in decimal form)black pigment (x)

0.15(40) + 0.6(x – 40) = 0.25(x)

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

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

72 : 16 = 18 : 4

As: 18 x 4 : 4 x 4 = 72 : 16
