Answer:

k = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given y varies jointly as x and z then the equation relating them is

y = kxz ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition y = 15 when x = \frac{1}{2} and z = 6 , then

15 = k × \frac{1}{2} × 6 = 3k ( divide both sides by 3 )

5 = k

Answer:

y= 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Y= Kxz

y=6  x=1/2   z=6

15= K (1/2) (6)

15= K (3)

K= 5

SO

y= (5) (1/2) (6)

Y= 15

nydimaria [60]
Well. If you get 29% of 5 cars that is 145%. This was a little confusing but I am defiantly sure it is correct. I like to use simpler numbers to see if I am doing the work right. So I said if he has a 50 % likely hood to find a car that was expired and had 1 car. It would be 50 percent. Now if he had 2nt got it the first time it would be a 100 % chance to find the car expired . Hope I didn’t co fuse you more

One fifth of the sum of two angles is 24 and half their difference is 14.Calculate the two angles
Brums [2.3K]
Let, the angles = a, b
It is given that, a+b /5 = 24
a + b = 120   --- equation (1)

a-b/2 = 14
a - b = 28  ---- equation (2)
a = 28 + b

Now, substitute this value of b in equation (1), 
28 + b + b = 120
2b = 120 - 28
b = 92/2
b = 46
Now, a = 28 + b = 28 + 46 = 74

In short, Your Angles are 74 and 46

Hope this helps!
