Answer:

z = 2.25xy

Step-by-step explanation:

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

z = kxy ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition x = 3, y = 8 and z = 54 , then

54 = k × 3 × 8 = 24k ( divide both sides by 24 )

$\frac{54}{24}$ = k = 2.25

z = 2.25xy ← equation of variation

frosja888 [35]

Answer: $\frac{1}{8}$ hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The total time Collin spent on 6 songs = $\frac{3}{4}\text{ hour}$

Now, the fraction of an hour does he spend practicing each song is given by :-

$\frac{\text{Total time taken}}{\text{Total songs}}=\frac{\frac{3}{4}}{6}=\frac{3}{4\times6}=\frac{1}{8}\text{hour}$

The fraction of an hour does he spend practicing each song= $\frac{1}{8}$

H = 27 m. Since these are scales of each other, you can solve for h by creating a ratio of the two lengths. Divide 36 by 4 to find the scale for the tree. 36/4 = 9. This means that the large triangle is 9 times larger than the small one. Now to find h, multiply the height of the small triangle by the scale. 3 x 9 = 27. This means the height, h, of the large triangle is 27 m. You can check this by dividing the length of each triangle by their height. If they are the same number, the scale is correct. 36/27 = 1.33, 4/3 = 1.33 ✅
