What is the constant proportionality of y=5/7x

Mathematics

<h3>Answer: 5/7</h3>

Explanation:

I'm assuming the equation is $y = \frac{5}{7}x$ which is the same as writing y = (5/7)x.

If so, then the constant of proportionality is the fraction out front: The value 5/7 is the coefficient of the term (5/7)x.

All direct proportion equations are of the form y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality. Another example would be y = 12x and this time k = 12.

Miguel is playing a game in which a box contains four chips with numbers written on them. Two of the chips have the number 1, on

Umnica [9.8K]

To check all the events (6), we label the chips. Suppose one chip with 1 is labeled R1 and the other B1 (as if they were red and blue). Now, lets take all combinations; for the first chip, we have 4 choices and for the 2nd chip we have 3 remaining choices. Thus there are 12 combinations. Since we dont care about the order, there are only 6 combinations since for example R1, 3 is the same as 3, R1 for us.
The combinations are: (R1, B1), (R1, 3), (R1, 5), (B1, 3), (B1, 5), (3,5)

We have that in 1 out of the 6 events, Miguel wins 2$ and in five out of the 6 events, he loses one. The expected value of this bet is: 1/6*2+5/6*(-1)=-3/6=-0.5$. In general, the expected value of the bet is the sum of taking the probabilities of the outcome multiplied by the outcome; here, there is a 1/6 probability of getting the same 2 chips and so on. On average, Miguel loses half a dollar every time he plays.

An amusement park sold 27 child tickets. The other 23 tickets it sold were adult tickets. What is the ratio of the number of adu

amm1812

Answer:

23/50

Step-by-step explanation:

27 + 23 = 50 (Implying that 50 is the total amount of tickets).

23 of them were sold to adults, so basically 23/50.

Remember a ratio can be written in 3 forms, so it can be either of these:

23:50

23/50

23 to 50

A manufacturer uses a mold to make a part in the shape of a triangular prism. The dimensions of this part are shown below.

tamaranim1 [39]

The complete question in the attached figure

we know that
[volume of a triangular prism]=[area triangular base]*[length]
[volume <span>of a triangular prism]=[(14.4*2.1)/2]*8.25
</span>[volume of a triangular prism]=124.74 mm³

the answer is 306
