If a varies directly with x squared, and a = 8 when x = 4 find the constant variation of k

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

k = 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a varies directly with x² then the equation relating them is

a = kx² ( k is the constant of variation )

To find k use the condition a = 8 when x = 4 , then

8 = k × 4² = 16k ( divide both sides by 16 )

0.5 = k

Find the solution to the following: *
Enter your solution in the following format x = solution. (Ex: x = 5)
3x-8=2(x-4)

Answers

Answer:

First one: x = all real numbers

Second one: x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

for the first one

given 8x+10=2(4x+5) we need to isolate the variable (x) using inverse operations

step 1 distribute the 2 to what is in the parenthesis ( 4x and 5 )

2 * 4x = 8x

5 * 2 = 10

now we have 8x + 10 = 8x + 10

step 2 subtract 8x from each side

8x - 8x = 0

8x - 8x = 0

now we have 10 = 10

subtract 10 from each side

10 - 10 = 0

10 - 10 = 0

we're left with 0 = 0 meaning that all real numbers are solutions

For the second one

given 3x-8=2(x-4) once again we need to isolate the variable using inverse operations

step 1 distribute the 2 to what is in the parenthesis (x - 4)

2 *x = 2x

2 * -4 = -8

now we have 3x - 8 = 2x - 8

step 2 add 8 to each side

-8 + 8 = 0

-8 + 8 = 0

now we have 2x = 3x

step 3 subtract 2x from each side

3x - 2x = x

2x - 2x = 0

we're left with x = 0

So what you gotta do is count the lines. You don't count the one with one on it, but you count all the way through to 2. That gets you eight, so each line is 1/8. 1-2 in 1/8 intervals. 1 1/4 multiply 2 on the numerator and denominator gets 1 2/8, 1 1/2 multiply 4 on the numerator and denominator gets you 1 4/8. Counting the lines, each of those matches up. The first interval is 1 1/8.

The area of a room is 425 square feet. The length is (x+9) feet and the width is (x+1) feet. Find the dimensions of the room.​

Answers

Answer:

width is 17

length is 25

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+9)(x+1) =[tex]x^{2}[/tex]  + 10x + 9 = 425

[tex]x^{2}[/tex]  + 10x - 416 = 0

(x-16)(x + 26) = 0

x = 16 or x = -26

x  cannot be -26

x = 16

so, (16 + 1) = 17

      (16 + 9) = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -3/5 x + 2

multiply both sides by 5

5y = -3x + 2

add 3x to both sides

3x + 5y = 2

note: if it really has to be equal to 20, then multiply both sides by 10, which will result in 30x + 50y = 20

V = Bh where B is the area of the circular base and h is the distance between the bases (height)

B = [tex]\pi r^{2}[/tex] = [tex]\pi 5^{2}[/tex] = 25π

V =  25π(6) = 150π cu. units

Answer: V = 471 m^3

V = πr2h

V = 3.14(5)^2(6)

V = 3.14(25)(6)

V = 471 M^3

Answer:

This quadrilateral is a parallelogram because the slopes of the opposite sides equal eachother.

Step-by-step explanation:

To prove this quadrilateral is a parallelogram you want to show that the opposite sides are parallel by finding the slopes of each. Which means the parallel lines have to have the same slopes if it is a parallelogram.

To find slope we use M= Y1-Y2/X1-X2

Lets start with A and B

M=7-8/2-(-2)

so M= -1/4 for Line AB

Now lets find C and D

M=2-1/1-5

so M=-1/4 for line CD

So this quadrilateral is a parallelogram because the slopes of the opposite sides equal eachother.

Where the graphs of the functions intersect it represents the number of weeks when they have both saved the same amount of money. So by solving the system we can find the number of weeks and that amount of money.

y = x^2 + 2x

y = -3x + 6 so

x^2 + 2x = -3x + 6

x^2 + 5x - 6 = 0

(x + 6)(x - 1) = 0

So x = 1  ( we ignore the negative)

So after 1 week  they have saved the same amount  and the amount is -3 + 6 = 3.

Answer:

Finite set: A set is said to be a finite set if it is either void set or the process of counting of elements surely comes to an end is called a finite set.

In a finite set the element can be listed if it has a limited i.e. countable by natural number 1, 2, 3, ……… and the process of listing terminates at a certain natural number N.

The number of distinct elements counted in a finite set S is denoted by n(S). The number of elements of a finite set A is called the order or cardinal number of a set A and is symbolically denoted by n(A).

Thus, if the set A be that of the English alphabets, then n(A) = 26: For, it contains 26 elements in it. Again if the set A be the vowels of the English alphabets i.e. A = {a, e, i, o, u} then n(A) = 5.

Last year: 12 boys and 8 girls. This year 15 boys and 10 girls

Answers

Answer:

last year 8 boys 12 girls and this year 10 boys 15 girls

Step-by-step explanation:

ratio = 4:6

total ratio = 6 +4 =10

last year

ratio 1 = 20 ÷ 10 = 2

boys = 2 × 4 = 8

girl = 2 × 6 = 12

this year

ratio 1 = 25 ÷ 10 = 2.5

boys = 2.5 × 4= 10

girls = 2.5 × 6 = 15

The answer to your question is 67

Answer:

68 inches squared

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's find the area of the squares at the top and bottom. Area for a square is:

L * W = A

Plug in the values...

3 * 3 = 9

Therefore, the area of the two squares combined is 18 inches (since 9 + 9 = 18). Now, the hexagon in the middle, which is the hardest part. We will have to separate it into 4 triangles and a rectangle, for simplification. We need to find the base widths of the triangles, which are:

7 (total width) - 3 (middle width) / 2 (because there are two sides)

So it is:

(7 - 3)/2

4/2 = 2

So, the base of the triangle is two inches. We also know that the height of the triangle is five inches. The formula for the area of a triangle is:

(B * H)/2 = A

Fill it in...

(2 * 5)/2

10/2 = 5 inches

So, the area of each triangle is 5 inches. Since there are four triangles, we need to do:

5 * 4 = 20 inches

That means that all of the triangles combined is 20 inches. Lastly, we need the middle part of our hexagon. It is 10 inches tall, and three inches wide. So...

L * W = A

10 * 3 = 30

So, that means that the area of the hexagon is:

30 + 20 = 50

Plus, the two squares from the beginning:

50 + 18 = 68 inches squared

Therefore, the area of the figure is 68 inches. Hope this helps you!
