Determine whether 2y=3x-1 represents a direct variation. if it​ does, find the constant of variation.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer choices for this question? 
Answer 2

The equation 2y=3x-1 does not represent a direct variation in its strict definition, as it includes a y-intercept. If the y-intercept is ignored, the constant of variation would be k = 3/2.

The equation 2y=3x-1 represents a direct variation if it can be written in the form y = kx, where k is the constant of variation. To determine if this equation represents a direct variation, we can solve it for y:

Divide both sides of the equation by 2 to isolate y:
y = (3/2)x - 1/2.

Since we can express y as an equation of the form y = kx + b, with b being a constant, it does not represent a pure direct variation, as direct variation should have a form y = kx without the constant term.

However, if the question is interpreted to include such linear relationships as direct variations despite the y-intercept, then the constant of variation would be k = 3/2.

given the equation -2x-13=8x+7, which order of operations completely solves for x

Answers

We can start by adding 2x to both sides (to put all of the x values on one side), as well as subtracting both sides by 7 to get variables on one side and numbers on the other, ending up with 10x=-20. After that, we can divide both sides by 10 to separate x and get x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n represent the number.

Twice the sum of the number and 2 is ...

  2(n +2)

Three times the difference of the number and 8 is ...

  3(n -8)

The problem statement tells us these quantities are equal, so ...

  2(n +2) = 3(n -8) . . . . the given quantities are equal

  2n +4 = 3n -24 . . . . . use the distributive property to eliminate parentheses

The distributive property to express 48+72

Answers

Answer:

24(2+3)=24.2+24.3=48+72

Step-by-step explanation:

Given form of number is 48+72.

we have to apply the distributive property to express the above number.

The distributive property is

a(b+c)=ab+ac

Multiply the common term with the term inside the parentheses

So to express 48+72 we have to take the highest factor outside

Let us take 24 outside, we get

24(2+3)=24.2+24.3=48+72

Hence applied

The required expression is [tex]24(2+3)[/tex] by using the distributive property.

Given:

The given expression is [tex]48+72[/tex].

To find:

The graphs of the equations 2x+5y=3 and 2x+5y=7 are parallel lines. Find the equation of the line that is parallel to both lines and lies midway between them.

Answers

Re-write both equations into the slope-intercept form. 

y = mx + b 

1) 2x + 5y = 3

5y = -2x + 3

Divide all terms by 5. 

y = [tex] -\frac{2}{5}x [/tex] + [tex] \frac{3}{5} [/tex]

2) 2x+5y=7

5y = -2x + 7 

y = [tex]- \frac{2}{5}x [/tex] + [tex] \frac{7}{5} [/tex]

Now that both equations are in standard form, we know that the equation of the line that is parallel to both lines must have the same slope as the two lines which is -2/5. 

In order to find the y-intercept of the line, we have to add up the y-intercepts of the two lines and divide them by 2. 

[tex] \frac{3}{5} [/tex] + [tex] \frac{7}{5} [/tex]

= [tex] \frac{10}{5} [/tex] ÷ 2 

= 2 ÷ 2

= 1

The y-intercept of the equation is 1. 

The equation of the line that is parallel to both lines and lies midway between them will have the slope of [tex] -\frac{2}{5}x [/tex] and a y-intercept of 1. 

Solution: y = [tex] -\frac{2}{5}x [/tex] + 1

Just by looking at the answer choices, the answers are not A or B. The answer would have to be D, because when you plug in the number, it would be a little over.

Bill earns $87.50 per week and Jack earns $70.00 per week. What percent of Bill's salary is Jack's?

Answers

I believe it is 80%. Hope that helped.

Answer:

80%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us suppose x percent of Bill's salary is equal to Jacks's salary.

Thus, we can write

x% of 87.50 = 70

Mathematically, we can write this as

[tex]0.0x\times87.50=70[/tex]

Solve the equation for x

[tex]0.0x=\frac{70}{87.50}\\\\x=\frac{70}{87.50}\times100\\\\x=80[/tex]

Therefore, Jack's salary is 80% of Bill's salary

What is the missing term in the factorization? 18x2−32=2(3x+?)(3x−4)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]18x^{2} -32 = 2(9x^{2} -16)[/tex]

we apply difference of squares

2(3x-4)(3x+4)

So, the missing term is 4.

The missing term in the factorization 18x² − 32 = 2(3x + ?)(3x − 4) is 4.

What is Factorization ?

Factorization is the method of breaking a number into smaller numbers that multiplied together will give that original form. Factorization is expressing a mathematical quantity in terms of multiples of smaller units of similar quantities.

For an integer, Factorization is decomposition of that integer in terms of smaller integers; when multiplied with each other give back that considered number. Those composing integers are called factors of that considered integers.

WE have given an expression as;

18x² − 32 = 2(3x + ?)(3x − 4)

Now we apply difference of squares;

2(9x² - 16)

2(3x + 4)(3x - 4)

OR

2(3x-4)(3x+4)

Therefore, the missing term is 4.

in the graph below, point D is reflected across the y axis. what are the coordinates of its image ?

Answers

Generally, whenever a point (x,y) is reflected across the y axis, the y coordinate stays the same and the sign of x coordinate changes.

So [tex](x,y)[/tex] changes to [tex](-x,y)[/tex].

Point D in the diagram shown has coordinates [tex](3,-1)[/tex]. According to the rule, the x-coordinate, 3, will change to -3 and the y-coordinate, -1, would stay the same.

Hence, our image of D after the reflection about y-axis would have coordinates [tex](-3,-1)[/tex].

Since the area formula of square is [tex]S=a^2[/tex] [tex]\Rightarrow[/tex] the area of the given square would be [tex]S=(5\frac{2}{5})^2=(\frac{27}{5})^2=\frac{27^2}{5^2}=\frac{729}{25}=29\frac{4}{25} \ inches^2[/tex].

Answer:

29 4/25 square inches (not given in the options)

Step-by-step explanation:

A square is a plain 4 sided shape with equal sides. As such, all sides of a square are equal. If the length o a side of a square is s, the area of the square will be s² while the perimeter will be 4s.

Area of square = (5 2/5 inches)²

= (27/5 inches)²

= 729/25 square inches

= 29 4/25 square inches

Type an equation of the line that passes through the origin with the slope 3

Answers

Assuming you want slope intercept form:

So slope intercept form is:

y = mx + b

M is the slope and b is the y intercept.

So therefore:

y = 3x + 0

Or 

y = 3x

The required equation of the line is y = 3x which passes through the origin with the slope 3.

What is the slope of the line?

The slope of the line is defined as the gradient of the line. It is denoted by m

Slope m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ -x₁ )

We have to determine the equation of the line that passes through the origin with slope 3.

Let's assume slope-intercept form:

So required line in the slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

In this case, the slope of line m = 3, and the line passes through the origin

So, therefore equation will be:

y = 3x + 0 or

y = 3x

Thus, the required equation of the line is y = 3x which passes through the origin with the slope 3.
