how do you find the constant of proportionality

Answers

Answer 1

The constant of proportionality is the ratio between two directly proportional quantities. Two quantities are directly proportional when they increase and decrease at the same rate. The constant of proportionality k is given by k=y/x where y and x are two quantities that are directly proportional to each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

On a position-time graph, "does not move" means the position is a constant—a horizontal line.

"Positive velocity" means the position is increasing as time increases. The graph goes up to the right. The rate of change (slope) is the velocity.

"Negative velocity" means the position is decreasing as time increases. The graph goes down to the right. Again, the rate of change (slope) is the velocity.

The various sections of the graph are identified in the attachment.

In the equation, the variable is m.

To find the value of m, divide both sides by 5:

Q6. A colony of ants is beg please help, I don’t know this and I have to hand it in in 20 mins

increases exponentially at a rate of 10% per week. Initially there are 500
ants.
a) Show that the number of ants in the colony forms a geometric progression
b) The number of ants in week 8 is p times greater than in week 6. Find the value of p.

Answers

Answer:

a) The number of ants in week three is shown through the following geometric progression: 500*1.1*1.1*1.1

b) 1.21

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 500 ants are increasing at a rate of 10% every week which means that we can calculate the week one ants like this

500*1.1

Week two

500*1.1*1.1

and so on.

We write the following equation

500(1.1)^n where n is the number of weeks

We plug in 8 and then 6 for n in the equation above and get

500(1.1)^8=1071.79

500(1.1)^6=885.78

Divide and get that p=1.21

Which person is a sort of leader for the rest of the residents in the Secret Annex? If You Have Time-----What Are Some Examples Of Ethos, Pathos, and Logos IN THIS ESSAY!!!Year after year, study after study has come to the same depressing conclusion: Women are paid less than men in most every occupation, from accounting to teaching to sales to nursing. In the 55 years since the federal Equal Pay Act was passed, the gap has shrunk a bit, but its still far too wide. In 1963, working women were paid, on average, 59 cents for every dollar paid to a man. Its now about 80 cents on the dollar, and substantially less for women of color. The gap exists even in fields in which women vastly outnumber men, like secretarial work and grade school teaching.Its no great mystery how and why this gap came to exist, but it is unfair and dispiriting nonetheless. Well into the technologically enlightened 21st century, some prehistoric attitudes about the value of womens work persist and are reflected in their collective pay. Its wrong, but deeply held societal beliefs are hard to shake and structural inequities are difficult to rectify. Thats why we are heartened by the disruptive promise of a recent decision by the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals that bars employers from considering a new workers prior salary when deciding what to pay him or her.Well into the technologically enlightened 21st century, some prehistoric attitudes about the value of womens work persist and are reflected in their pay.The ruling came in the case of a California woman who sued the Fresno County Office of Education when she found out her salary was $13,000 less than that of a man with less experience and education hired for the same job. Her employers argued that the disparity was not discriminatory because her lower salary was based on the fact that she had earned less in her last job, not on her gender. The court disagreed, adding (in an opinion written by Judge Stephen Reinhardt, who died in late March) that to allow employers to capitalize on the persistence of the wage gap and perpetuate that gap ad infinitum would be contrary to the text and history of the Equal Pay Act, and would vitiate the very purpose for which the Act stands.Its a broad interpretation, to be sure. Even some of the concurring justices worried that Reinhardts absolute ban on considering prior salary was too broad, though they agreed with his larger point. But theres certainly something to his logic. Discrimination is baked deeply into our system, and because past pay often is determinative of future pay, women underpaid in the past often continue to be paid less for the rest of their careers. Interrupt this pattern, and you have a better chance of stopping it before another century passes.The ruling applies only to the nine states under the appeals courts jurisdiction, but it likely will have a ripple effect across the nation, where concerns about the wage gap already have spurred a handful of states and cities California among them to adopt laws banning employers from asking about pay history. More states have considered similar proposals.Businesses that employ people have been understandably wary of adding another subject to the list of topics that are verboten to ask about in the application process. This includes asking job applicants their race, religion or gender identity, or other personal information such as their sex or whether they are pregnant, unless is it relevant to the job they are seeking. The California Chamber of Commerce and other business groups opposed Californias law, AB 168, which went into effect in January, on the grounds that employers often seek past wage history for legitimate, nondiscriminatory purposes. For one thing, the chamber argued, employers dont always know what the going market salary is for a particular job; for another, past wage history can help a company determine whether the potential employees salary expectations far exceed what it can offer.But the benefits of the law outweigh those concerns. Besides, industry trade groups regularly produce salary surveys for employers in their fields. And the California law still allows employers to ask an applicant about their salary expectations what they hope or expect to earn in the job for which theyre applying.Pay inequity doesnt only harm women. It also harms people of color. And its a matter of simple fairness too. Two people with the same amount of job experience and the same skills who do the same job equally well should be paid roughly the same amount, regardless of what they used to earn or what their race or gender is.Everyone can be hurt by a system that bases compensation not on skill level, experience or industry standards but on what they were paid at their last job. what is this answer?
