Explanation The time t required to test a computer memory unit is directly proportional to the square of the number n of memory cells in the unit. Hence the above direct proportion is given by, t = k n 2 ... ( 1 ) Where t denotes the time and n denotes the number of memory cells and k is the constant of proportionality. It is given that 4800 memory cells can be tested in 15.0 s . Therefore, the value of k is obtained by substituting the known values of number of memory cells and time taken in the equation (1) as follows. 15.0 s = k ( 4800 ) 2 k = 15

Unitary Method

The word “unitary” comes from the word “unit”, which means a single and complete entity. In this method, we find the value of a unit product from the given number of products, and then we solve for the other number of products.

Speed, Time, and Distance

Imagine you and 3 of your friends are planning to go to the playground at 6 in the evening. Your house is one mile away from the playground and one of your friends named Jim must start at 5 pm to reach the playground by walk. The other two friends are 3 …
