Phil is riding his bike. He rides 25 miles in 2 hours, 37.5 miles in 3 hours, and 50
miles in 4 hours. Find the constant of proportipnality and write an equation to
describe the situation. Let x represent the number of hours.
The equation that describes the relationship is y =

Answers

Answer 1

The constant of proportionality (known as "speed" in this case) is 12.5 miles per hour.

The equation is  

d

=

12.5

×

t

Explanation:

To find the constant of proportionality, divide one value in each pair by the other. If this relationship is a true direct proportionality , when you repeat these for every pair, your will come up with the same value:

For example

25

miles

÷

2

hours

=

12.5

miles

hour

A direct proportionality will always result in an equation that resembles this:

y

=

k

x

where  

y

and  

x

are the related quantities and  

k

is the constant of proportionality. If you draw a graph using the values you have, the graph will show a straight line the passes through the origin. The slope of this line will be the constant of proportionality. (And if the values given are real physical quantities, this constant will contain important information about the situation you are studying!)

1(8+x+4) = 0

Answers

Answer:

x + 12 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

x = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

1 x 8 = 8

1 x x = 1x

1 x 4 = 4

rewrite expression

8 + 1x + 4 = 0

combine like terms

8 + 4 = 12

1x + 12 = 0

subtract 12 from both sides

12 - 12 = 0

0 - 12 = -12

1x = -12

divide by 1 on both sides to get x by itself

1x/1 = x

-12/1 = -12

Calculate the length of the side LN given the following data for 37°.

Sin 37° = 0.602
Cos 37° = 0.790
Tan 37° = 0.754

pls help ASAP

Answers

Answer:

It is given that,

Sin 37° = 0.602

Cos 37° = 0.790

Tan 37° = 0.754

To find:

The length of side LN.

Solution:

In a right angle triangle,

[tex]\sin\theta =\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}[/tex]

Using this in triangle LMN, we get

[tex]\sin (37^\circ) =\dfrac{LM}{LN}[/tex]

[tex]0.602=\dfrac{6}{LN}[/tex]

[tex]0.602LN=6[/tex]

Divide both sides by 0.602.

[tex]LN=\dfrac{6}{0.602}[/tex]

[tex]LN=9.966777[/tex]

[tex]LN\approx 9.97[/tex]

Therefore, the correct option is C.

4b. A cell phone plan costs $200 to start. Then there is a $50 charge each

Answers

The answer is 50x+200

answer:

the equation would be

200 + ( 50 * x ) = total cost

x is variable for the number of months  

but lets use the number 2 ( 2 months ) for example

200 + ( 50 * 2 ) =

using pemdas we solve what is in the parentheses first

50 * 2

= 100

then just add the following numbers since they are the only ones left over in the problem

100 + 200

= 300

now we know that in 2 months and if you chose this cell phone plan, you will have to spend 300 dollars even!

hope this helps you and if you ever need anymore help or just not understanding this topic then please feel free to ask me! :)

and just in cause you dont know what pemdas stands for,

The older brother purchased 8 new shirts and 4 pairs of shorts and paid a total of $116. How much did each item cost?

Answers

Answer:

Younger: 12.78 per item

Older: 9.67 per item

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, if all the shirts and shorts were the same price divide the total price and total amount of items they bought.

Younger Brother:

8 shirts + 10 shorts = 18 items for $230

$230 ÷ 18 items = about 12.78 per item (it comes out to a lot of number so I estimated it the nearest hundredth)

Older Brother:

8 shirts + 4 shorts = 12 items

$116 ÷ 12 items = about 9.67 per item (estimated again)

Pickle cannot get the cart up the ramp. In order to be successful he should

make the ramp longer.


make the ramp shorter.


make the ramp steeper.


back up and begin with a running start.

Answers

Answer: Make the ramp longer

making the ramp shorter and making the ramp steeper would be the same, and backing up wouldn't really help

Pickle should make the ramp longer in order to be successful.

Option A is the correct answer.

What is a ramp?

The ramp refers to a sloped surface that connects a lower level to a higher level.

We have,

- A longer ramp will provide a more gradual slope, which will make it easier for the cart to move up the ramp.

- If the ramp is too short,

The slope will be too steep and it will be difficult to push the cart up.

- Making the ramp steeper will also make it more difficult to push the cart up.

- Starting with a running start may provide some initial momentum, but it will not address the underlying problem of the ramp being too short.

Thus,

Pickle should make the ramp longer in order to be successful.

An appliance is for sale at either (a) P15,999 cash or (b) on terms, P1,499 each month for the next 12 months.  Money is 9% compounded monthly.  Which is lower, the cash price or the present value of the installment terms? Explain.​

Answers

Answer:

Cash price

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

The Interest rate per month (r) = (9% ÷ 12) = 0.75%

Now Present value of the monthly payment is

= PMT × {[(1 + rate of interest)^number of years - 1] ÷ rate of interest}

= 1,499 × {[(1 + 0.75%)^12 - 1] ÷ 0.75%}

= 18,748.89

And the cash price is 15,999

So, the cash price would be lower

The cash price would be lower. A further explanation is below.

According to the question,

Interest rate per month,

[tex]r = \frac{9 \ percent}{12}[/tex]

  [tex]= 0.75[/tex] (%)

hence,

The Present value of the monthly payment will be:

= [tex]PMT\times \frac{{(1 + Interest \ rate)^{number \ of \ years} - 1}}{Interest \ rate}[/tex]  

= [tex]1499\times \frac{[(1 + 0.75 \ percent)^{12} - 1] }{0.75 \ percent}[/tex]  

= [tex]18748.89[/tex]

As we can see that the cash price is 15,999. Thus the above answer is right.
