"Vary directly" is another way of saying "directly proportional".

In simple English, this just means, as one increases, the other increases too.

a = 6

b = 4

The question says find out what a is when b is 16.

First, lets find how many times larger b has gotten.

16/4 = 4

b had gotten 4 times bigger to go from b=4 to b=16

If a is varying directly, it means that it will also get 4 times bigger.

Therefore, a = 6 x 4 = 24

What is this one i cant seem to figure it out
pshichka [43]

Answer:

73

Step-by-step explanation:

Since DA is the diameter, this means that you can divide the circle into two half-circles.  You will solve with the right half-circle.  A half-circle has a 180 total degrees.  Add up the values given and solve for x.

(2x) + (7x - 4) + (85) = 180

2x + 7x - 4 + 85 = 180

9x - 4 + 85 = 180

9x + 81 = 180

9x = 99

x = 11

Now that you have the value of x, solve for m∠CZB.

m∠CZB = 7x - 4

m∠CZB = 7(11) - 4

m∠CZB = 77 - 4

m∠CZB = 73
