Answer:

It is proportional.

Step-by-step explanation:

y/x = 7

Solve for y.

y = 7x

The equation of a proportional relation is of the form:

y = kx

y = 7x is of the form y = kx, so y/x = 7 is proportional.

What is the length of line PS

stiks02 [169]

$PQ^2 = PR \times PS$

$(4x + 4)^2 = (3x + 3)(3x + 3 + 21)$

$16x^2 + 32x + 16= (3x + 3)(3x + 24)$

$16x^2 + 32x + 16= 9x^2 + 81x + 72$

$7x^2 - 49x- 56 = 0$

$7(x^2 - 7x - 8)= 0$

$(x - 8)(x + 1) = 0$

$x - 8 = 0~~~or~~~x + 1 = 0$

$x = 8~~~or~~~x = -1$

x = -1 makes the lengths of segments PQ and PR equal zero.
That is not possible, so the solution x = -1 is discarded.

x = 8

PS = 3x + 3 + 21

PS = 3x + 24

PS = 3(8) + 24

PS = 24 + 24

PS = 48

Answer:

the amount due for 3 hours would be $52 + ($34/hr)(3 hrs) = $154

Step-by-step explanation:

Write two equations, one for the total cost payable to Water R Us and another to Clogs:

$52 + ($34/hr)t = $34 + ($40/hr)t, or

$18 = ($6/hr)t, which tells us that t = 3 (That's 3 hours).

At the time the charges from the two companies would be the same (3 hours into the job), the amount due for 3 hours would be

$52 + ($34/hr)(3 hrs) = $154
