A farmer fills his field proportionately with soybeans and corn. Last year he planted 200 acres of corn and 50 acres of soybeans

malfutka [58]

Answer:

Part A) Is a directly proportional

Part B) The constant of proportionality is $k=0.25$

Part C) The equation is $y=0.25x$

Part D) $62.5$ acres of soybeans

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) Are the number of acres of corn and the number of acres of soybeans directly proportional or inversely proportional?

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $y/x=k$

Let

x-----> the number of acres of corn

y----> the number of acres of soybeans

$y/x=k$

if the number of acres of corn increases then the number of acres of soybeans increases

if the number of acres of corn decreases then the number of acres of soybeans decreases

therefore

The relationship is a directly proportional

Part B) What is the constant of proportionality?

we have that

For x=200, y=50

substitute

$y/x=k$

$k=50/200$

$k=0.25$

Part C) Let x equal the number of acres of corn and y equal the number of acres of soybeans. Write an equation to show this relationship.

The linear equation that represent the direct variation is equal to

$y/x=k$

we have

$k=0.25$

substitute

$y/x=0.25$

$y=0.25x$

Part D) How many acres of soybeans can the farmer plant this year if he plants 250 acres of corn?

For x=250

Find the value of y

substitute in the linear equation the value of x and solve for y

$y=0.25(250)=62.5$ -----> acres of soybeans

a man invested a total of $3,000 in two investments. he made a profit of 3% on the first investment and 4% on the second investm

klio [65]

Let the first investment be x
and second be 3000-x

so 3%of x + 4% of (3000-x) = 107
By solving x = 1300

First investment is 1300
second investment is 1700

Sam wants to leave an 18% tip for his dinner. The bill is for $23.50. Which equation could be used to find the total amount that

lora16 [44]

Answer:

(0.18 x 23.50) + 23.50

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the percentage of 23.50 (equation in the parenthesis). 18% is equivalent to 0.18. Then, you add that to 23.50. That's the total amount Sam should pay. I hope this makes sense.

Simplify the trigonometric expression sin(4x) +2 sin(2x) using Double-Angle<br> Identities.

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

8sin(x)cos³(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

sin(4x) +2 sin(2x) = 2sin(2x)*cos(2x) + 2sin(2x) = 2sin(2x)(cos2x + 1)=

= 2sin(2x)(cos²x - sin²x + cos²x + sin²x)=²2sin(2x)*(2cos²x)=

= 4*2sin(x)*cos(x)*cos²(x)= 8sin(x)cos³(x)

The sum of two numbers is 54. The large number is 18 more than the sampler number. What are the numbers ?

Karolina [17]

Answer: a=36; b=18

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You know that the sum of two numbers is 54, then, you have:

a+b=54

2. According to the problem, the larger number is 18 more than the sampler number, this can be expressed as following:

a=b+18

3. Then, you must substitute the second equation into the first equation and solve for b:

b+18+b=54

b=18

4. Then the value of a is:

a+18=55

a=36
