6.974 rounded to the nearest tenth is 7.0, because 7 is more than 5, and since 9's there, we make that 6 to a 7.
Answer:
Fractional form of 0.8034 
Since 4017 and 5000 are whole numbers this fraction is rational.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have 
Fractional form of 0.8034
Since 4017 and 5000 are whole numbers this fraction is rational.
Set up two equations:
1st: P (for Price family) + J (for Jenkins family) = 45 hours
2nd: 20P + 35J = 1200 liters
Rewrite the first equation as P = 45 – J
Replace P in the second equation:
20(45-J) + 35J = 1200
Simplify:
900 -20J + 35J = 1200
900 +15J = 1200
Subtract 900 from both sides:
15J = 300
Divide both sides by 15:
J = 300/15
J = 20
Jenkins used theirs for 20 hours
Price used theirs for 45-20 = 25 hours.
Answer:
57.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The constant of proportionality is "k" in the equation ...
y = kx
It can be found from values of x and y using ...
k = y/x
For the given values, it is ...
k = (287.5 mi)/(5 h) = 57.5 mi/h
The constant of proportionality relating miles to hours is 57.5.
