Answer: Yes

Tc = 3.12m

Therefore, total cost of apple is directly proportional to the total mass with a proportionality constant of 3.12.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total cost of the apples is proportional to the total mass. The product of the mass and the cost per mass ($3.12) gives the total cost.

It can be shown using the equation below

Tc = c×m

Where Tc = total cost

c = cost per unit mass

m = total mass in kilogram

Tc = 3.12m

Therefore, total cost of apple is directly proportional to the total mass with a proportionality constant of 3.12.

Find the amount in an account if 7,650 is invested at 9.15 percent compounded quarterly for 8 years and 6 months

storchak [24]

We have been given that in an account an amount of 7,650 is invested at 9.15 percent compounded quarterly for 8 years and 6 months.

We will use compound interest formula to find our answer.

$A=Pcdot(1+\frac{r}{n}) ^{nT}$ ,

Where, P= principle amount, A= amount after T years, n= period of compounding and r = interest rate (decimal).

Let us substitute our given values in our formula.

$A=7650(1+\frac{0.0915}{4} )^{(8.5\times4)}$

$A=7650(1+0.022875)^{34}$

$A=7650(1.022875)^{34}$

$A=7650\cdot 2.15758136398$

$A=16505.4974$

Therefore, after 8 years and 6 months our amount will be 16505.497.

in 4.5 hours, 11.25 inches of snow fell suppose the same amount of snow fell each hour how much snow fell each hour

Julli [10]

If 11.25 inches snow fell in 4.5hrs,
Then for each hr how much snow fell?

So,
4.5 : 11.25
To find how many inches that fell per hour who would need to divide the number of inches by the numbers of hours

11.25 divided by 4.5 = 2.5

So the answer would be 2.5 inch was of snow per hour
