Yolanda is filling her bathtub. The table shows the number of gallons of water in the bathtub at different times since she started filling it. Time (minutes) Water (gallons) 1 16.50 1.5 24.75 2 33 Answer the following questions based on the information in the table. Part A Find the constant of proportionality (in gallons per minute) using the values in the first row of the table.

Constant of proportionality

K= 16.5 gallons per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Time t (minutes) Water g (gallons)

For t= 1, g= 16.50,

for t= 1.5 ,g= 24.75

For t= 2,g= 33

Let the function be

Gallons g= k(time t)

Where k is the constant of proportionality

16.5= k(1)for when t= 1

24.75= k(1.5) ..for when t= 1.5

Solving gives

8.25=k(0.5)

8.25/0.5= k.

16.5 = k

K= 16.5 gallons per minute

step-by-step explanation:

given that there are two triangles j'k'l' and jkl>

the former is got by dilating the second one.

when drawn on a grid, (graph paper) coordinates of vertices of first triangle is

(6,12)j, (9,6)k and (12,9)l

side jk has length = distance between j and k

=

side j'k'=distance between j' and k'

=

ie j'k'l' has sides 1/3 of that of corresponding sides of jkl.

hence scale factor of 1/3 is used to get j'k'l'from jkl
