If y varies directly with x and y is 37.4 when x is 17, what is the value of x when y is 13.2?

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

We have y ∝ x which is another way of saying y varies directly with x

We can rewrite the direct proportion relation y ∝ x as y = k.x where k is a constant - the constant of proportionality

So y = kx or x = y/k

using y and x values know, we can solve for k and then solve for any x given y

We have

y = 37.4 =  k (17)

Therefore k = (37.4/17) = 2.2

To find x given y = 13.2, use the second equation
x = y/k = 13.2 / 2.2 =  6

Given O below, is XY a minor arc, a major arc, or a semicircle?
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

B. Minor arc

Step-by-step explanation:

The central angle that is subtended by arc XY is less than 180° and it is not up to a semicircle.

A semicircle is half of a circle of which its central angle measure exactly 180°

The central angle of which an arc is subtended measures more than 180°.

Therefore, arc XY, which has a central angle that subtends it measuring 155° can be said to be a minor arc.

Which number produces
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

A is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

A fraction plus a fraction is equal to a fraction. An irrational number cannot be expressed as a fraction.

0.3333333 even though it looks like an irrational number it is actually: 1/3

3/5 is already a fraction so adding it with another fraction will NOT equal an irrational number (decimal)

-0.75 is equal to -3/4 (75/100 => 3/4). Same thing that applies above.

However, Pi cannot be expressed as a fraction exactly. You can round up like 3.14. However it is not the full number. So 3.141592654....+(3/4) is not going to add up perfectly into a fraction.

In short, a fraction is a rational number. Rational + Rational = Rational. Irrational + Rational = Irrational.
