Answer:

d: y=5x

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know a few points: (2,10), (3,15), (4,20), we can use two of them to first find the slope. The equation for the slope is (Increase in y)/(increase in x).

1. Slope between (2,10) and (3,15) is 5/1 which is 5. So the slope will be 5.

2. With the slope, we know that our equation will be: y=5x+b. To find b, we can replace x and y with another point. 20 = 5(4)+b. --> 20 = 20 +b. Now we know that b equals 0.

Our final equation will be y = 5x.

RECHECKING!

I'll recheck whether my answer is right or not using Desmos (A online graphing calculator).

I added an image down below, and I drew the points in blue. This shows that since the graph crosses all three points, it is correct.

WHY y=1/5x IS NOT CORRECT (based on your comments)

If you look at the points, the relationship between x and y is not 1/5. If you multiply something from x, it should become 10.

--> 2 times __ = 10

--> 3 times __ = 15

--> 4 times __ = 20

And clearly, __ will be 5. If it becomes 1/5, we won't get the right number of y.

This is why y=1/5 is not correct.

Hope this helps!

nasty-shy [4]

Answer: 10.4

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the right angle triangle, the longest side is the hypothenus, d side facing the angle is the opposite and the other side is the adjacent

So we this we will use tan

Tan 30= opp/adj

Tan 30= 6/x

Cross multiply

Xtan30= 6

X= 6/tan 30

X= 6/1/square root of 3

X= 6 x square root of 3

X= 10.39 ~ 10.4

Divide 132kg in a ratio of 3:3:5
borishaifa [10]
3 + 3 + 5 = 11 (11 total parts of the ratio.)

132 ÷ 11 = 12 (one part of the ratio)

Multiply 12 by the number of parts in the ratio:

12 × 3 = 36
12 × 3 = 36
12 × 5 = 60

Therefore, the final answer is 36:36:60 kg.

Betsy is saying for a bird cage. She saves $1 the first week, $3 the second week, $9 the third week, and so on. All together how
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Betsy will save $121 in 5 weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that Betsy's savings are 3 times the saving of her last week. We can see that this is an geometric sequence as 1,3,9,..

To find the sum of our geometric sequence we will use S_{n}=a\cdot \frac{1-r^{n}}{1-r}, where n is number of terms we are taking sum of, a is first term of sequence and r is common ratio of the sequence.

S_{5}=1\cdot \frac{1-3^{5}}{1-3}

S_{5}=\frac{1-243}{-2}

S_{n}=\frac{-242}{-2}=121

Therefore, Betsy will save $121 in 5 weeks.
