By finding the proportional relation between x and y, we will see that when x = 16, we have y = 32.

<h3>How to get the value of y when x = 16?</h3>

If y varies directly with x, then we can write the relation as:

y = k*x

Where k is the constant of proportionality.

First, we know that when x = 4, we have y = 8, replacing that we get:

8 = k*4

Solving for k, we get:

k = 8/4 = 2.

Then the relation between x and y is:

y = 2*x

When x = 16, we have:

y = 2*16 = 32

Then the correct option is a.

I need help.. i really want to go sleep.. thank you so much...

Effectus [21]

Answer:

1) True 2) False

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Given $\sum\limits_{k=0}^8\frac{1}{k+3}=\sum\limits_{i=3}^{11}\frac{1}{i}$

To verify that the above equality is true or false:

Now find $\sum\limits_{k=0}^8\frac{1}{k+3}$

Expanding the summation we get

$\sum\limits_{k=0}^8\frac{1}{k+3}=\frac{1}{0+3}+\frac{1}{1+3}+\frac{1}{2+3}+\frac{1}{3+3}+\frac{1}{4+3}+\frac{1}{5+3}+\frac{1}{6+3}+\frac{1}{7+3}+\frac{1}{8+3}$ $\sum\limits_{k=0}^8\frac{1}{k+3}=\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{7}+\frac{1}{8}+\frac{1}{9}+\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{11}$

Now find $\sum\limits_{i=3}^{11}\frac{1}{i}$

Expanding the summation we get

$\sum\limits_{i=3}^{11}\frac{1}{i}=\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{7}+\frac{1}{8}+\frac{1}{9}+\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{11}$

Comparing the two series we get,

$\sum\limits_{k=0}^8\frac{1}{k+3}=\sum\limits_{i=3}^{11}\frac{1}{i}$ so the given equality is true.

2) Given $\sum\limits_{k=0}^4\frac{3k+3}{k+6}=\sum\limits_{i=1}^3\frac{3i}{i+5}$

Verify the above equality is true or false

Now find $\sum\limits_{k=0}^4\frac{3k+3}{k+6}$

Expanding the summation we get

$\sum\limits_{k=0}^4\frac{3k+3}{k+6}=\frac{3(0)+3}{0+6}+\frac{3(1)+3}{1+6}+\frac{3(2)+3}{2+6}+\frac{3(3)+4}{3+6}+\frac{3(4)+3}{4+6}$

$\sum\limits_{k=0}^4\frac{3k+3}{k+6}=\frac{3}{6}+\frac{6}{7}+\frac{9}{8}+\frac{12}{8}+\frac{15}{10}$

now find $\sum\limits_{i=1}^3\frac{3i}{i+5}$

Expanding the summation we get

$\sum\limits_{i=1}^3\frac{3i}{i+5}=\frac{3(0)}{0+5}+\frac{3(1)}{1+5}+\frac{3(2)}{2+5}+\frac{3(3)}{3+5}$

$\sum\limits_{i=1}^3\frac{3i}{i+5}=\frac{3}{6}+\frac{6}{7}+\frac{9}{8}$

Comparing the series we get that the given equality is false.

ie, $\sum\limits_{k=0}^4\frac{3k+3}{k+6}\neq\sum\limits_{i=1}^3\frac{3i}{i+5}$

How do solve or simplify this?<br>10/9*7/5

Nostrana [21]

1. Are you asking how to solve or simplify?

If so, the answer is simple.

PEMDAS
Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction.

10 divided by 9 times 7 divided by 5.

9 times 7 first. 63 so lets re word the equation

10 divided by 63 divided by 5

now its 6.3 divided by 5

I got 1.26
now if i did it the way I was taught in highschool this will be the answer..

1.555555555...

Am I correct with either?
