The value of x when y= 24 is -26

<h3>How to determine the value of x?</h3>

The given parameters are:

y varies directly with x, and y = 16 when x = -4.

This means that

y = kx

Where k is the constant of variation

So, we have:

16 = -4k

Divide by -4

k = -4

Substitute k = -4 in y = kx

y = -4x

When y = 24, we have:

24 = -4x

Divide by -4

x = -6

Hence, the value of x when y= 24 is -26

Kiera is in her last year of college at the University of Houston. She has a scholarship that pays 75% of her costs. Her classes
sergiy2304 [10]
If the scholarship pays 75% of her classes cost, that means that she has to pay the 25% remaining of the classes cost so if we calculate it as follow:

0.25 * $14,000 = $3,500 
 =================================================================
Another method to understand:
if the scolarship pays 75% of her classes that will be 
0.75* $14,000 = $10,500

now she has to pay the remaining of the total cost and that will be 
$14,000 - $10,500 = $3,500.

How many 1 2/3 are in 1 1/6​
Flura [38]

Answer:

7/10

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many of x are y, you solve <em>y/x</em>.

With our numbers, we have <em>7/6 ÷ 5/3</em>.

We can turn that into <em>7/6 × 3/5</em> = <em>21/30</em> = 7/10.

Perform the requested operation or operations.
alukav5142 [94]
f(x) = \frac{x-3}{5}
g(x) = 5x+3
g(f(x)) = 5(\frac{x-3}{5})+3 = x-3+3 = x

EDIT:
f(g(x))=\frac{(5x+3)-3}{5}=\frac{5x+0}{5}=\frac{5x}{5}=x

Helga [31]

Answer:

7 X / 2 y

Step-by-step explanation:

let Mel equals to X and female equals to y

therefore ×=y

therefore to make the count proper we have to multiply the male by 7

so 7 x = 2y and the fraction becomes 7 X / 2 y

hope this helps
