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

If the length of segment AC equals 58, what is the length of the midsegment DE
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

B) 29

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

AC= 58

Point D and E are the midpoints of side AB and BC Respectively.

Solution:

According to Midpoint theorem which states:

"The segment joining two sides of a triangle at the midpoints of those sides is parallel to the third side and is half the length of the third side."

\therefore DE= \frac{1}{2} AC

DE= \frac{58}{2} =29

Hence length of DE is 29.

Solve this system of equations using the elimination method.
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

(6, -9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Our system of linear equations is:

6x + 2y = 18

-4x - 2y = -6

When we solve by elimination, we're essentially "eliminating" a variable so that we can solve for other more easily. Here, let's eliminate the y variable by adding the two equations together:

    6x + 2y = 18

+   -4x - 2y = -6

____________

    2x  +  0y = 12

x = 12/2 = 6

Plug this back into one of the original equations to find y:

-4x - 2y = -6

-4 * 6 - 2y = -6

-24 - 2y = -6

-2y = 18

y = -9

The solution is (6, -9).

You are trying to hack into your mom's computer. You know your password is 4 letters and then a number but you can not remember
podryga [215]
The amount of passwords you can guess are 4,569,760. 
 How this is found is by multiplying the amount of numbers in the alphabet by itself 4 times, then multiplying by the amount of 1 digit numbers there are, so multiply by 10, it is ten because you can have the number as 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 or 0, and then the number you get is your answer. Hope this helped! ^_^

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

II and III

Step-by-step explanation:

Causation always means coorelation, but corelation doesn't always mean causation.

Also, correlation is a two-sided relationship while causation is not. Hot days cause more ice cream sales but ice cream does not cause more hot days. However, hot days are correlated with ice cream and ice cream is correlated with hot days.

Therefore, only II and III are correct.
