A quantity b varies jointly with c and d and inversely with eWhen b is 18, c is 4, d is 9, and e is 6What is the constant of var

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

constant of variation = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that b varies jointly with c and d

so:

b∝c∝d

and b varies inversely with e, so

b∝ $\frac{1}{e}$

and i will call the constant of variation k, this way we can make an equation for b in the following form:

$b=k\frac{cd}{e}$

this satisfy that b varies jointly with c and d (if b increases, c and d also increase) and inversely with e (if b increases, e decreases)

we know that when b is 18, c is 4, d is 9, and e is 6:

$b=18\\c=4\\d=9\\e=6$

substituting this in our equation for b:

$b=k\frac{cd}{e}\\ 18=k\frac{(4)(9)}{6}$

and we solve operations and clear for the constant of variation k:

$18=k\frac{36}{6}\\ 18=6k\\\frac{18}{6}=k\\ 3=k$

the constant of variation is 3.

3. The diagonal of a rectangular field is 169 m. Ifthe ratio of the length to the width is 12:5, find the: (a) (b) dimensions; p

Kazeer [188]

The dimensions of the rectangle are length 156 m and a width of 65m, and a perimeter P = 442m

<h3>How to find the dimensions of the rectangle?</h3>

For a rectangle of length L and width W, the diagonal is:

$D = \sqrt{L^2 + W^2}$

Here we know that the diagonal is 169m.

And the ratio of the length to the width is 12:5

This means that:

W = (5/12)*L

Replacing all that in the diagonal equation:

$169 = \sqrt{((5/12)^2*L^2 + L^2} \\\\169^2 = (25/144)*L^2 + L^2 = ( 25/144 + 1)*L^2\\\\\frac{169}{\sqrt{25/144 + 1} } = L = 156$

So the length is 156 meters, and the width is:

W = (5/12)*156 m = 65m

Finally, the perimeter is:

P = 2*(L + W) = 2*(156 m + 65m) = 442m

zlopas [31]

You have to give them the same denominator so multiply 11/12 by 4 and 3/16 by 3. giving you 44/48 and 9/48. then divied 44 by 9 giving you 4.8888
there for there are 4 whole 3/16 sections of the 11/12 board

Answer:

y=16x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to find the equation for a line that passes through the two points:

(1,17) and (2,33).

First of all, remember what the equation of a line is:

y = mx+b

Where:

m is the slope, and

b is the y-intercept

First, let's find what m is, the slope of the line...

The slope of a line is a measure of how fast the line "goes up" or "goes down". A large slope means the line goes up or down really fast (a very steep line). Small slopes means the line isn't very steep. A slope of zero means the line has no steepness at all; it is perfectly horizontal.

For lines like these, the slope is always defined as "the change in y over the change in x" or, in equation form:

So what we need now are the two points you gave that the line passes through. Let's call the first point you gave, (1,17), point #1, so the x and y numbers given will be called x1 and y1. Or, x1=1 and y1=17.

Also, let's call the second point you gave, (2,33), point #2, so the x and y numbers here will be called x2 and y2. Or, x2=2 and y2=33.

Now, just plug the numbers into the formula for m above, like this:

33 - 17/ 2 - 1

or...

m= 16/ 1

or...

m=16

So, we have the first piece to finding the equation of this line, and we can fill it into y=mx+b like this:

y=16x+b

Now, what about b, the y-intercept?

To find b, think about what your (x,y) points mean:

(1,17). When x of the line is 1, y of the line must be 17.

(2,33). When x of the line is 2, y of the line must be 33.

Because you said the line passes through each one of these two points, right?

Now, look at our line's equation so far: y=16x+b. b is what we want, the 16 is already set and x and y are just two "free variables" sitting there. We can plug anything we want in for x and y here, but we want the equation for the line that specfically passes through the two points (1,17) and (2,33).

So, why not plug in for x and y from one of our (x,y) points that we know the line passes through? This will allow us to solve for b for the particular line that passes through the two points you gave!.

You can use either (x,y) point you want..the answer will be the same:

(1,17). y=mx+b or 17=16 × 1+b, or solving for b: b=17-(16)(1). b=1.

(2,33). y=mx+b or 33=16 × 2+b, or solving for b: b=33-(16)(2). b=1.

See! In both cases we got the same value for b. And this completes our problem.

The equation of the line that passes through the points

(1,17) and (2,33) is y=16x+1
