Y
y=ax
where a is a constant of proportionality;
y=20, x=4
20=4a
a=20/4
a=5
y=5x
The constant of variation is 5

Five line segments coincide at a point as shown.

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

720º

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use vertical angles to figure this out. We can see that each of the unmarked angles in the triangles is a vertical angle to an empty space. A full circle has the measure of 360º. We need half of that which is 180º.

The sum of the angle measures of a triangle is 180º. We have five triangles so the total angle meaure is 900º.

However, we need to subtract the 180º to get 720º.

I did bad but what's the answer for this?

Setler [38]

Answer:

28 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle is always equal to 180 degrees so add the degrees together

40+2x+3x=180

40+5x=180

5x/5=140/5

x=28

The equation of line ris y = 11x + 5.

Liula [17]

It would be neither because 5 to be patrol would be -5 and to be perp it would be -1/5 there’s is no way to get 9 to 5

Find the value of this expression if x=-1 and y=-5 x^2y/4

REY [17]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{-\dfrac{5}{4}=-1\dfrac{1}{4}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{Put the values of x = -1 and y = -5 to the expression}\ \dfrac{x^2y}{4}:\\\\\dfrac{(-1)^2(-5)}{4}=\dfrac{(1)(-5)}{4}=\dfrac{-5}{4}$
