A rectangular parking lot is 3/4 mile long.
If its area is 3/8square mile, what is the
width of the lot?

A=xy, A=3/8 and y=3/4

3/8=3x/4

12/8=3x

4/8=x

x=1/2 mile

So the width of the parking lot is 1/2 mile.

I hope this helps and please tell me if my answer is wrong.

constant of proportionality = 3 and the equation is c = 3p.

step-by-step explanation:

c = kp   where c = amount of caffeine in mg., p = oz of pepsi and k is the constant of proportionality.

substituting the values given:

24 = 8k

k = 3.

the same value of k will be obtained if we substitute the other given values.
