Answer:

p is equal to 8.125

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct proportion formula : Y = kx ,k is constant

p = x = 3.2

r = y = 4

4 = k * 3.2

k = 4/3.2 = 1.25

y = 1.25x

Now, substitute x = 6.5 and find y.

y = 1.25 * 6.5 = 8.125

Hence p is equal to 8.125

Tina wants to buy grass seed to cover her whole lawn, except for the pool. The pool is 7/12 m by 3 /14 m. Find the area the gras

eimsori [14]

Answer:

Since Tina wants to buy grass seed to cover her whole lawn, except for the pool, and the pool is 7/12 m by 3/14 m, to find the area the grass seed needs to cover the following calculation must be performed:

It is impossible to determine the area that the grass seed needs to cover, because we do not have the data of the total size of the lawn. Now, you can determine the size of the surface that should not be covered, which is the one that the pool occupies, namely:

7/12 x 3/14 = X

0.583333 x 0.2142 = X

0.1249 = X

Therefore, the grass seed should not cover about 0.1249 square meters.

What is the interval notation for the compound inequality? x ≤ −4 or x ≥ 5

torisob [31]

Answer:

(-∞, -4] ∪ [5, ∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!

Alright, so greater (or less) than or equal to is denoted with a bracket.

If x is less than or equal to -4, then the bracket is on the left side.

(___, -4]

Because x is any number under or equal to -4, x can range from negative infinity. However, we use a parentheses for infinity because infinity can never truly be reached.

So, x $\leq$ -4 = (-∞, -4]

X $\geq$ 5

Equal to = bracket

X is any number above 5, so

[5, ∞)

Because we want both of these, we use the union sign (∪)

so,

= (-∞, -4] ∪ [5, ∞)
