A quantity h varies directly with w and inversely with p. If h = 2, w = 4, and p = 6. What is the constant of variation?A. 1/2
B. 4/3
C. 3
D. 12

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer: Option 'C' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

h varies directly with w and inversely with p.

so, Mathematically, it is expressed as

h=(kw)/(p)

Here, h = 2

w = 4

p = 6.

So, it becomes,

2=(4k)/(6)\n\n2* 6=4k\n\n12=4k\n\n(12)/(4)=k\n\nk=3

Hence, Option 'C' is correct.

Answer 2
Answer: answer is (C).

let's take the constant as K.

h= K. (w/p)

so; K= (hp ÷w)
K= (2x6) ÷ 4
K = 12÷4
K= 3

Answers

Knowing the diameter of the can is 8cm, we can figure out the radius by dividing it by 2. The radius is 4cm. To find the volume of the can, multiply pi by radius^2 by height. (3.14)*(4)*(4)*(12)=(3.14)*(16)*(12)= (3.14)*(192)= 603 cm^3.

55 employees increased by 20%

Answers

First, take 20% of 55. You can do that by mutliplying 55 by 0.20.

55 • 0.20 = 11

Then add that to 55

55 + 11 = 66

55 employees increased by 20% = 66 employees.
