Selena babysits on the weekends. The equation y = 12x represents the amount of money she earns for every hour, x, she babysits. What is the constant of proportionality?

Answers

Answer 1
The answer to your question is twelve.
Answer 2
The constant of proportionality is the ratio  of y to x. 

To find the constant of proportionality of y = kx we divide out x. Note, k = constant of proportionality. 
y = kx
y / x  = kx / x
y / x = k
k = y / x
Notice y / x is our ratio of y to x. Now knowing this we can see that 12 is in the k spot of y = 12x  and 12 is our constant of proportionality.

Derrick’s parents are finalizing a budget for his college expenses. His first year of college will cost $8,000, and his expenses will increase by 12% each year. What is the amount they should budget for Derrick’s four-year college education, to the nearest dollar?
$38,235 is needed.
$42,823 is needed.
$32,072 is needed.
$39,200 is needed.

Answers

1st year = 8000

2nd year = 8000 * 1.12 = 8960

3rd year = 8960*1.12 = 10035.20

4th year = 10035.20 * 1.12 = 11239.42


8000 + 8960 + 10035.20 + 11239.42 = 38234.62 round to $38,235


Answer:

$38,235 is needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The cost of first year of college is $ 8000 and it is increasing by 12 % each year,

So, His first year's cost = $ 8000,

Second year's cost = 12 % more than the first year's cost = 112 % of first year's cost = 112 % of 8000 = 1.12 × 8000 = $ 8960,

Third year's cost = 112 % of second year's cost = 112 % of 8960 = 1.12 × 8960 = $ 10035.2

Fourth year's cost = 112% of third year's cost = 1.12 × 10035.2 = $ 11239.424

Hence, Total cost for four-year college education = 8000 + 8960 + 10035.2 + 11239.424 = $ 38234.624 ≈ $ 38235

⇒ $38,235 is needed.

Mary is 19 years old. she drinks the recommended intake of 2.2 liters of water and other beverages a day. about how many cups is this equivalent to?

Answers

To convert 2.2 liters to cups, multiply by 4.22675. Rounded, it's approximately 9 cups. So, option C) [tex]$9$[/tex] cups is correct.

To find out how many cups 2.2 liters is equivalent to, we'll first convert liters to cups.

1 liter is approximately equal to 4.22675 cups.

So, to find out how many cups are equivalent to 2.2 liters:

[tex]\[ \text{Number of cups} = 2.2 \, \text{liters} \times 4.22675 \, \text{cups/liter} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ \text{Number of cups} \approx 9.29885 \, \text{cups} \][/tex]

Rounded to the nearest whole number, 2.2 liters of water is approximately equivalent to 9 cups. Therefore, the correct answer is:

What's the answer to find y when x=9 if y varies directly as the square of x ,and y =100 when x= 5

Answers

"y varies directly with square of x"
y = kx²
where "k" is the constant of variation you need to solve for first.

when y = 100 ; x = 5
100 = k(5)²
100 = 25k
100/25 = k
4 = k

Now you can solve for y when x = 9
y = 4(9)²
y = 4(81)
y = 324

The world record for the 24 hour run for women on all surfaces is 255.303 kilometers, set by mami kudo of Japan in 2011. What was her average speed?

Answers

Hello! I can help you with this! So, Mami Kudo ran 255.303 kilometers in 24 hours. I’m guessing that we have to find the answer in kilometers per hour. 255.303/24 is 10.6376 and other numbers or 10.64 when rounded to the nearest hundredth. Mami Kudo’s average speed was about 10.64 kilometers per hour.

The average speed of Mami on all surfaces is 10.64 km/hr.

What is average?

Average is the mid value of two different higher and lower values. The average can be determined by taking the sum of all data and then dividing it by the number of data or the total value divided by the total no. of values.

Given a runner in 24 hours named Mami can run 255.303 kilometers on all surfaces.

∴ Her average speed is (255.303/24) km/hr.

= 10.64 km/hr.

∴ Her average speed is 10.64 km/hr all surfaces.

Carlene is selling T-shirts for a fundraiser. The T-shirts cost $20.50 each. To date, she has raised $700. Her goal is to raise more than $8,900. How many more T-shirts, x, does Carlene need to sell to reach her goal?

Answers

She needs to sell around 397 more shirts. 

Divide 700 by 20.5. This will give you the amount of shirts she has already raised with is 36 (more accurately 36 6/41). Next divide 8900 by 20.5. This is the amount of shirts she needs to sell in total, which is 434. Subtract these two values. 

Hope this helps

Carlene needs to sell 400 more T-shirts at $20.50 each to reach her goal of raising more than $8,900, after already raising $700.

The question asks us to determine how many more T-shirts, designated as x, Carlene needs to sell to reach her fundraising goal of more than $8,900, given that each T-shirt costs $20.50 and she has already raised $700. To solve for x, we can set up the following equation:

Total goal - Amount already raised = Amount still needed

$8,900 - $700 = $8,200

Next, we divide the amount still needed by the price per T-shirt to find out how many T-shirts need to be sold:

x = Amount still needed / Price per T-shirt

x = $8,200 / $20.50

x = 400

Carlene needs to sell 400 more T-shirts to reach her goal.

On a survey mission,a pilot flew out to a parcel of land and back in 7h. The rate flying out was 120mph. The rate flying back was 90mph.how far away was the parcel of

Answers

The answer is 750 mph
Final answer:

To find the distance, multiply the speed by the time for each leg of the trip and add them together to get the total distance of 735 miles.

Explanation:

To find the distance to the parcel of land, we can use the formula Distance = Speed x Time. Since the pilot flew out and back, we can calculate the distance for each leg of the trip and then add them together.

Distance going out = Speed x Time = 120 mph x (7/2) hours = 420 miles

Distance coming back = Speed x Time = 90 mph x (7/2) hours = 315 miles

Total distance = Distance going out + Distance coming back = 420 miles + 315 miles = 735 miles

choose the ratio that you would use to convert 5.5 pounds to ounces

Answers

We want "pounds" to disappear, in favor of "ounces."

Thus, multiply 5.5 pounds by (16 oz / 1 pound).  "pounds" cancels, leaving you with "88 oz."  

Answer:

A. 16 ounces/1 pound

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that: 1 pound (lb) is equal to 16 Ounces (oz).

Then you have to find a ratio to convert 5.5 pounds to ounces.

If you write: 5.5 pounds, you have to find a ratio that eliminates pounds in order to get ounces:

5.5 pounds*16 ounces/1 pound

In this way pounds in the numerator is eliminated with pounds from the denominator and the result you get is in units of ounces.

5.5 pounds*16 ounces/1 pound=88 ounces

A health food producer has 250 samples of a new snack to distribute in the mall the producer has to keep at least 50 samples for display in the health food store for the product launch how long will the samples last if consumers are taking the samples at a rate of 25 every hour

Answers

250-50=200 to give out. 200/25=8 hours

Final answer:

The 200 samples available for distribution will last for 8 hours at a consumption rate of 25 samples per hour.

Explanation:

The health food producer has 200 samples to distribute (250 total minus 50 for display), and if consumers take samples at a rate of 25 every hour, you would divide the 200 samples by the rate of 25 samples per hour to calculate how long the samples will last.

200 samples ÷ 25 samples/hour = 8 hours.

Therefore, the samples available for distribution at the mall will last for 8 hours before they run out, assuming the rate of consumption is constant at 25 samples per hour.

Y=(3/5)x -3 and 5y =3x-10 these lines are and the second question?

Answers

Look at the first line:  y = (3/5)x - 3.  What happens if you multiply each term by 5, to eliminate the fraction?

5y = 3x - 3

Compare this to the second equation, 

5y - 3x = -10, or 5y = 3x - 10.

The coefficients of x and y (as 3 and 5 here) determine the slope of a straight line.  Since 5y = 3x is present in both equations, the two lines MUST be parallel.



y = 4
4y = 6   =>   y = 6/4

y+4 and y =3/2 are both horizontal lines.  Since they are horiz., they are parallel.


Final answer:

The given lines Y=(3/5)x -3 and 5y =3x-10 are examples of linear equations which, when solved, are found to be parallel due to their identical slope.

Explanation:

The lines given in the question are in the format y = mx + b, where 'm' is the slope and 'b' is the y-intercept. The equations are Y=(3/5)x -3 and 5y =3x-10. By comparing the coefficients, the slope of the first line is 3/5 and the y-intercept is -3. For the second equation, we first need to convert it into the 'y = mx + b' form. Dividing every term by 5 gives us y = (3/5)x - 2. Therefore, the slope of the second line is also 3/5 and the y-intercept is -2. Since both lines have the same slope, they are parallel lines.
