Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Joint variation has the equation
y = kxz
k is the constant of variation and needs to be solved for using the initial conditions, then filled in later to another equation related to the given info to solve for something else. We are given y = amount of oil used, x = distance traveled, z-squared is the speed. Our equation looks like this, to be exact:

Filling in with the initial conditions:
which gives us the
k = .0014166667
Now we need to find the amount of oil used, y, under other circumstances, but this time we have our k.

which gives us that the amount of oil used, when rounded to the tenths,
y = 24.0 barrels
129.99*0.13
129.99-16.90
113.09*0.05
5.65+113.09
118.74

Step-by-step explanation:
1.15¹⁰=4.0456, the growth rate, so the increase is 3.0456 or 305%.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The salaries are the same. Only the fraction of how much is saved is quite different.
Equation
x ( 9/11 - 7/9) = 1584
Explanation: The salary amount is x. The fractional amounts saved are also given. You have to take the difference because one of the people saves more than the other.
The amount that is more is 1584.
Solution
9/11 = 0.8182
7/9 = 0.7778
9/11 - 7/9 = 0.8182 - 0.7778 = 0.0404
Put that into the equation.
x(0.0404) = 1584 Divide by 0.0404)
x(0.0404) = 1584/0.0404
answer:x = 39204
