The variables y and x have a proportional relationship, and y = 5 when x = 4.

What is the value of x when y = 8?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{a = 6.4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

[tex]x:y = (4):(5)[/tex]

Let the value of "x" be known as "a".

[tex]x:y = a:8[/tex]

Setting up the proportion:

[tex]\rightarrow 4:5 = a :8[/tex]

Multiplying the middles and the extremes:

[tex]\rightarrow 5a = 4 \times 8[/tex]

Simplifying the RHS:

[tex]\rightarrow a = \dfrac{4 \times 8}{5}[/tex]

[tex]\rightarrow \boxed{a = 6.4}[/tex]

Thus, the value of x is 6.4 when y is 8.

Answer 2

Answer:

[tex]\sf x=\dfrac{32}{5}[/tex]

(or x = 6.4 if you want it in decimal form)

Step-by-step explanation:

If y and x have a proportional relationship, then:

y = kx   (for some constant k)

Given:

x = 4y = 5

Substitute the given values into the equation to find k:

⇒ 5 = k(4)

⇒ k = 5/4

Therefore, [tex]\sf y=\dfrac54x[/tex]

When y = 8, substitute y = 8 into the equation and solve for x:

[tex]\sf \implies \dfrac54x=8[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies x=8 \cdot \dfrac45[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies x=\dfrac{32}{5}[/tex]

An integer is chosen at random from 1 to 50 inclusive. Find the probability that the chosen integer is divisible by 3. 8/25 3/10 3/50

Answers

How many numbers from 1 to 50 are multiples of 3?

3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18 .......

Let's change the start and end value of the array and find the number of terms

Start at 3 and go all the way to 48 because those are the first and last multiples of 3 in this array.

There is a formula that allows us to quickly find the number of terms

We subtract the first term from the last term and divide by the amount of increase, then we add 1.

(48 - 3) / 3 + 1   =   16 numbers are exactly divisible by 3.

We have 50 numbers and 16 of them divisible by 3

16 / 50  = 8 / 25 probability

The probability that the chosen integer is divisible by 3 is 8/25 if an integer is chosen at random from 1 to 50 inclusive option first is correct.

What is probability?

It is defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes in other words the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.

We have the number from 1 to 50.

Total numbers between 1 to 50 or total outcomes = 50

Total favorable outcomes = total number which is divisible by 3

[tex]=\frac{48-3}{3} +1[/tex]

= 15 + 1

= 16

Now probability will be:

= 16/50

= 8/25

Thus, the probability that the chosen integer is divisible by 3 is 8/25 if an integer is chosen at random from 1 to 50 inclusive option first is correct.

"The difference of six and twice a
number is five."

Answers

Let that number be x.
6-2x=5
2x=1
x=1/2

Answer:

x = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

twice a number = 2x

difference means subtract 2x - 6 = 5

2x - 6 = 5                     Add 6 to both sides.

2x + 6 - 6 = 5 + 6        Combine

2x = 11                          Divide by 2

2x/2 = 11/2                

x = 5.5

Is the answer different if it is done the other way around for the difference?

6 - 2x = 5                    Subtract 6 from both sides

-2x = 5-6                     Combine

-2x = - 1                       Divide by -2

-2x/-2 = -1/-2              

x = 1/2

Yes they are different. Following the way the question is written, I would choose the second method.

Height = 9 cm

Volume = 243 cm³

Surface area = 270 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

A prism is a 3D shape which has the same 2D shape repeated along its length (this 2D shape is sometimes called the cross section).

The 2D shape at the ends of the prism is the base of the prism, so for this shape, the bases are the L-shapes.

The height of the prism is also called the length, and is the measure of the length that connects the two bases.  
So for this prism the height is 9 cm.

Area of the base = (6 × 3) + (3 × 3)

                            = 18 + 9

                            = 27 cm²

Volume of a prism = area of the base × height

                               = 27 × 9

                               = 243 cm³

Total surface area = (2 × base area) + side areas

                              = (2 × 27) + 2(6 × 9) + 4(3 × 9)

                              = 54 + 108 + 108

                              = 270 cm²
