Answer:

It is a right triangle.

So, using Pythagorean theorem: OS² = OR² - RS²

OR = r (radius) + 8

OS = r

RS = 16

=> r² = (r+8)² - 16²

r² = r² + 16r + 64 - 256

r² = r² + 16r - 192

16r = 192

r = 192 / 16 = 12cm²

a) 12 cm²

b) 12 + 8 = 20 cm²

Cam is a corrupt politician. Nobody votes for him except those he pays to do so. It costs Cam exactly \$100$100 to buy each vote
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

Yes, Cam's costs proportional to the number of votes he receives.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Cam is a corrupt politician. Nobody votes for him except those he pays to do so. It costs Cam exactly $100 to buy each vote.

Let the number of votes he get be x.

Then the total cost of Cam is

C=100\times x         ... (1)

Where, C is Cam's costs and x is number of votes he receives.

Two variables are proportional to each other if

y\propto x

y=kx                     ... (2)

Where k is constant of proportionality.

Since equation (1) and (2) and similar and the constant of proportionality is 100, therefore we say that Cam's costs proportional to the number of votes he receives.
