The statement "y varies directly as x," means that when x increases, y increases by the same factor. In other words, y and x always have the same ratio: y/x =K
it can be written as ---> y=kx
then put in the values to get a common ratio
k= y/x
k1= 11/7
k2= 13/8
therefore, there's no common ratio in the given table
Given:
circular pool with a diameter of 25 meters.
find: area of the bottom of the pool.
It is safe to assume that the diameter of the pool is the same from the top of the pool to the bottom of the pool.
Area of a circle = π r²
where:
π = 3.14
r = diameter / 2 = 25 meters / 2= 12.5 meters
Area of a circle = 3.14 * (12.5m)²
= 3.14 * 156.25 m²
Area of a circle = 490.625 m²
490.625 m² round to the nearest tenth is 490.60 m²
We round down because the number after 6 is 2. Whenever a number to be rounded off is followed by 0,1,2,3,and 4. Then, the number is rounded down.
Answer:
14 dimes and 4 quarters
Step-by-step explanation:
x= number of dimes
y=number of quarters
x-10=y
0.10x+0.25y=2.40
substitute for y
0.10x+0.25(x-10)=2.40
0.35x-2.50=2.40
0.35x=4.90
x=14
y=4
8 rock in 5 minutes
54 rocks / 8 rocks = 6.75
6.75 x 5 minutes = 33.75 minutes
