Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

A bicyclist rides the same number of miles in one minute.

Ratio table is given as

Number of minutes    Distances (miles)

       10                                   2.5

        16                                   4

        x                                    7.5

       48                                  12

We have to find the number of minutes taken by a biker to bike 7.5 miles

So the ratio between minutes to the distance biked will be = \frac{10}{2.5}=4:1

Now this ratio will be similar to the ratio = \frac{x}{7.5}=x:7.5

Now \frac{4}{1}=\frac{x}{7.5}

x = 7.5×4 = 30 minutes

Therefore, Option B will be the answer.

Angle KLM and angle MLN are a linear pair. Ray LR is to be added to the diagram so that it is opposite ray LM. Which is true abo
lesya [120]
Angles RLN and MLK would be vertical angles.
Right. Vertical angles are formed when their sides share the same lines. RL shares the same line with LM and NL shares the same line with LK (see the attached diagram), so that means both angles form a vertical pair.

Angles RLN and MLN would be vertical angles.
Wrong.
They are linear pairs, because they are adjacent and supplementary. Adjacent angles share a side – in this case, LN. Supplementary angles sum 180°, which you can see is right because the other sides (ML and RL) are in the same line. RLN and MLN sum the same as the size of RLM, which is a line, so it’s 180°.  <span>

Angles RLN and KLM would be a linear pair. </span>
Wrong.
They would be a vertical pair (see definition of vertical pair in the first option). RL is opposed to LM and LN is opposed to KL.

Angles RLN and KLN would be a linear pair.
Wrong.
KLN is actually a line, so it’s actually 180°, so it can’t be a linear pair with KLN. Linear pairs sum 180°, which is impossible because KLN itself is already 180°, so any sum will throw a higher number.

An albatross is a large bird that can fly 400 kilometers in 8 hours at a constant speed. Using d for distance in kilometers and
uranmaximum [27]

We are given relation between distance( in kilometers) travelled and number of hours taken by an Albatross bird.

Distance in kilometers taken by variable d.

Number of hours by t.

And situation is given d=50t.

We know, direct relation formula y= kx read as y is directly proportional to x. And k is the constants of proportionality.

In the given fuction y is taken by variable d and x is taken by variable t.

If we compare d=50t by y = mx, the value of k is 50.

Therefore, constant of proportionality is 50.

Constant is a number that never change it's value.

Therefore, constant of proportionality is just 50.

But we can say variables d and t are two variables those are directly proportional to each other.

Constant of proportionality is actually unit rate of change.

For the given situation constant of proportionality is the number of km travelled in per unit time (in 1 hour.)

If we divide 400km 8 hours, we get 400/8 = 50 km per hour.

Therefore, variables of proporation are d and t and relation between them is " they are directly proportional to each other".

And the constants of proportionality is just 50.

Many us employess received a 3% raise in 2012 suppose an employee made 47,000 in 2011 and received a 3% raise. What did she make
WITCHER [35]
First lets get 3% into decimal form. 

3% is 3/100  = 0.03

Now multiply 0.03 by 47000 to get how much extra money she was going to get. 

47000 * 0.03 = 1410

Now we just add
47000 + 1410 = 48410 is what she was going to make in 2012

Another way to do this is 

(47000)(1+0.03) = 48410

you would use (1+0.03) which tells you she increased in pay.
