Desmond ran the further distance because Betty ran 2/4 and Desmond ran 3/4
Answer:
y=4x
Step-by-step explanation:
it's enough to use first column (x=6, y=24). Inserting this data into equation y=kx, we can calculate k.
24=k*6
6k = 24
k = 24/6
k = 4
Let us say that x is the real height of the original hut,
therefore we can establish the equation:
5 : x = 1.5 : 8
5 / x = 1.5 / 8
Solving for x:
x = 5 * 8 / 1.5
x = 40 / 1.5

N-the number
the product of 8 and the number: 8 × n = 8n
5 less than the 8n: <u>8n - 5</u>
