What is constant of proportionality?

The constant of proportionality is known as the slope of the line.

Constant of proportionality is nothing but slope of a line

The formula for calculating slope is expressed as:

m = y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁

Given the coordinate points (2/3, 3/4 ) and (0,0).

y₂=0, y₁=3/4, x₂=0,x₁ =2/3

substitute the values of  y₂=0, y₁=3/4, x₂=0,x₁ =2/3 in slope formula to get constant of proportionality.

The constant of proportionality is expressed as:

m = 3/4 × 2/3

m =6/12

m=1/2

Hence the constant of proportionality is 1/2

Which of the following can be used to represent the domain and range of f(x) = |x|? I. Domain: x ∈ ; Range: y ≥ 0 II. Domain: {x|x ∈ }; Range: {y|y ∈ , y ≥ 0} III. Domain: (–∞, ∞ ) ; Range: [0, ∞)

Answers

The domain and range of f(x) = |x| are Domain: (–∞, ∞ ) ; Range: [0, ∞)

f(x) = |x| is the absolute value function.

It always gives non-negative function values.

The absolute value function is defined as,

|x| = { x ; if x ≥ 0

      { -x ; if x < 0

So this definition says that if x is a non-negative real number, then the function gives the non-negative value itself.

Also if x is a negative real number, then -x is a positive real number which is the outcome from the absolute value function for negative real numbers.

This function is defined for all real numbers. Hence the domain is all the real numbers which is (–∞, ∞ ).

But the range of the function are only non-negative real numbers as absolute value function gives only non-negative values. So the range is    [0, ∞).

The most appropriate choice for proportionality will be given by

When y = 24, x = 10

What is proportionality?

Any relationship which maintains the same ratio is known as proportionality.

Proportionality can be of two types-

Direct Proportion and inverse proportion

Direct proportion

Two quantities are said to be  directly proportional, if on increasing the value of one quantity, the value of other quantity also increases and vice versa

For Example- Cost of a commodity and quantity of a commodity are direct proportional.

Inverse proportion

Two quantities are said to be inversely proportion, if on increasing the value of one quantity, the value of other quantity decreases.

For Example- Number of men and time taken by those men to do a certain work are inversely proportional.

Here,

y is inversely proportional to x

[tex]y = k \times \frac{1}{x}[/tex], where [tex]k[/tex] is an arbitrary constant known as proportionality constant

when y = 80, x =3

Putting the value of y and x in the above equation,

[tex]80[/tex] = [tex]k \times \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]k = 80 \times 3\\k = 240[/tex]

So [tex]y = 240 \times \frac{1}{x}[/tex]

when [tex]y = 24[/tex]

[tex]24 = 240 \times \frac{1}{x}[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{240}{24}[/tex]

[tex]x = 10[/tex]

Find the distance between y=1/2x+2 and x-2y=6
Show work and give exact distance

Answers

The distance between these two lines  y=1/2x+2 and x-2y=6 is 10/√5

Distance between two lines:

We know that, the parallel lines can be extended till infinity. The slopes of two parallel lines are equal.

Distance d between two parallel lines

y = mx + c1 and

y = mx + c2 is calculated by the

d = |C1–C2|/√(A² + B²)

Given,

Here we have the two line equation they are,

y=1/2x+2 and x-2y=6

And we need to find the distance between them.

To find the distance between the lines, then we ahve to make the equation into standard form, that is,

y = mx + c

Here the first equation is in standard form, so we have to convert the second one,

So, the second equation is written as,

x - 2y = 6

-2y = 6 - x

y = (6 - x)/-2

y = -3 + 1/2 x

y = 1/2 x - 3

Now, we have to derive the value of the following from the given equation, then we get,

Slopes are same m1 = m2 = 1/2 and c1 = 2 ,c2 = -3.

here a = 1/2, b = -1

Now, apply the values on the formula, then we get,

d = |2 - (-3)|/√(1/2)² + (-1)²

d = 5/√1/4 +1

d = 5/√5/4

d = 5/√5/2

d = 10/√5

Therefore, the distance between these two equation is 10/√5.

What does the constant 0.9955 reveal about the rate of change of the quantity?

Answers

The model given is:

[tex]f(t)=290(0.9955)^{60t}[/tex]

The term in the parentheses represents the change of rate of the model. If the number is the parentheses is less than 1, we call it exponential decay.

If the number in parentheses is bigger than 1, we call it exponential growth.

In this case, the correct option is "decaying"

The number in parentheses let's call it R, is:

[tex]R=1-r[/tex]

Where r is the rate of change. To find it:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 0.9955=1-r \\ . \\ r=1-0.9955=0.0045 \end{gathered}[/tex]

To convert to percentage, we convert by multiplying by 100::

[tex]0.0045\cdot100=0.45\%[/tex]

The second answer is 0.45%

And since t is the time passed in hours, and has a "60" multiplying it, the last answer is: Every 60 hours

The final answer is:

The function is exponentially decaying at a rate of 0.45% evary 60 hours.

The image and preimage coincide when reflecting a figure in a line or a point. Every point of a figure is translated to an image across a fixed line via a reflection. The fixed line is referred to as the reflection line

Explain about line of reflection?

An image can be produced by the reflection of a shape along a line of reflection. The mirror line is another name for the reflection line.

Reflections move each shape's points down a line known as the line of reflection (sometimes informally called the mirror line). The distance between a point and its matching point in the image is the same.

Consider the case when the point (6, 7) is reflected across the line y = x. The reflected point's coordinates are (7, 6). Similar to reflections across

y = -x, reflections across y = -x involve not only reversing the order of the coordinates but also their signs. For instance, when reflected over the line y = -x, (8, -2) becomes (2, -8)

Answers

If Johny receives £x, then Sara will receive £4x (Given ratio is 1:4).

Describe ratio.

In mathematics, a ratio shows how many times one number is contained in another.

For instance, if there are eight oranges and six lemons in a fruit plate, the orange to lemon ratio is eight to six (that is, 8:6, which is equivalent to the ratio 4:3).

Similarly, the ratio of oranges to total fruit is 8:14, while the ratio of lemons to oranges is 6:8 (or 3:4). (or 4:7). Numbers in a ratio can represent any quantity, including counts of people or objects, weights, lengths, times, and so on. Most of the time, both numbers have to be positive.

If Johny receives £x, then Sara will receive £4x (Given ratio is 1:4).

assumable, 4x - x = £69

or, 3x = 69

or, x = 69/3 = £21

Then Johny receives £21 and Sara receives £84 (4x£21).

Becky receives £(138-(21+84)) = £33 as well.

Her proportion in the ratio is equal to (33/138) x 100% (23.91%).

A 8 letter Code word is selected. What is the probability that there are no repeated letters?

Answers

Answer:

0.3016

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have an 8 letter code word...

Total number of possible letters = 26

The number of letters possible = 8

So...

26 ^ 8 = 0.3016

Hope this helps!

Answer:

[tex]\approx 0.30164[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The Alphabet contains 26 characters, and to better understand this probability, let's do each letter one step at a time.

Any letter being chosen should have an equal probability of: [tex]\frac{1}{26}[/tex], and for the first letter we don't really have to worry about choosing a non-repeated letter, since it's impossible to have a non-repeated letter on the first letter... since it's the first letter, so no other letter has been chosen.

This means we have a probability of: 1 to get a non-repeated letter when we choose the first letter.

The probability when we choose the 2nd letter is different, since there is a possibility of choosing a repeated letter. As stated above, the probability of choosing any one letter should be equal for each letter and is: [tex]\frac{1}{26}[/tex]

Since we want to avoid this one letter we choose in the beginning, the probability of choosing it is: [tex]\frac{1}{26}[/tex], which means the probability of not choosing it is: [tex]\frac{25}{26}[/tex]

For the 3rd letter it follows the same pattern, assuming we have two non-repeated letters, the probability of choosing a repeated letter from the previous two is there combined probabilities of: [tex]\frac{1}{26} + \frac{1}{26} = \frac{2}{26}[/tex]. Since we want a non-repeated letter, we subtract this probability from one, because the entire probability will equal one.

This gives us a probability of: [tex]\frac{24}{26}[/tex] of choosing a non-repeated letter.

You'll notice a pattern, the numerator is decreasing by one! This makes sense since each time we choose a non-repeated letter, well the number of non-repeated letters will decrease by one.

This gives us the probability for each letter up to eight letters

[tex]\frac{26}{26}, \frac{25}{26}, \frac{24}{26}, \frac{23}{26}, \frac{22}{26}, \frac{21}{26}, \frac{20}{26}, \frac{19}{26}[/tex]

To get an eight letter code that has no no repeated letters, all these events have to occur. To find the collective probabilities of all these events happening, we simply multiply them, assuming they're independent which we have no reason to believe they aren't independent.

This gives us a total probability of approximately: [tex]0.30164[/tex]

an ant starts from the origin (0, 0) of an xy-grid. each time it moves, it goes either up (50% chance) or right (50% chance) by one unit of distance. after 12 moves, what is the probability that the ant is located at the point (4, 8)?

Answers

The given ant can only go up or right here in every turn and as there is a 50% chance for either of

them, therefore each of the paths in 12 moves would be equally likely here.

As for each of the 12 steps here, there are 2 ways that the ant can move, therefore total number of

paths in 12 moves is computed as:

= 2^12 here.

We use the multiplication rule for independent events here to get the total number of outcomes here

by getting the product of the number of outcomes for each of those independent events.

Total number of 12 move paths such that we reach 4, 8 here is computed as the number of

permutation of 12 moves with 4 rights and 8 up points here. This is computed here as:

12!/(8!4!) = 495

Therefore, the probability that the ant is located at (4, 8) here is computed as:

=

495/(2^12)

= 0.1208

Therefore, 0.1208 is the required probability here
