    Need help on this sum

    I would appreciate it if someone can help me solve question 10 and 11. Pls show your workings if possible. I had difficulties solving it Dx.

    Sorry, but help isn't solving a problem for you. You have to learn it. Plus I'm to lazy to do school work.

    For question 10, I did v=kt and question 11, I let mass of sphere be y and diameter be x so I started out with y=kx to the power of 3.
    But I ended up with some weird answers.

    My brain is not working i tried but i blew. My brother tried, he just did this:
    Question11. 5.0 divided by 3.7 = 1.35 (note, it was rounded) 1.35 times 6.8 = 9.18

    Mind=blown. After he did it i was like, how the hell did you do that. Im dumb at math. I like science and history so much.

    My step mom did this for her masters and I helped her out. I found it stupid because she had to do tests on meteorology to become a nurse XD. This world is nuts!

    Both questions deal with direct variations, so the answer to 10 must be below 34.3 and for 11, the answer must be above 3.7. You could plug the numbers into an equation, but I prefer to use proportions.

    10. 68.6/3.5
    11. 3.7*6.8/5
    (The answer above is wrong because it doesn't turn out to be the correct units)
