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?

Mathematics

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

Expand <br><br> 2y (2y + 8 )
Andrews [41]
Hello There!

2y x 2y = 4y²
2y x 8 = 16y.
Put it together and you get the answer of:
4y² + 16y.

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)

An apartment complex rents an average of 2.3 new units per week. If the number of apartment rented each week Poisson distributed
masya89 [10]

Answer:

P(X\leq 1) = 0.331

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Poisson Distribution;

Average rent in a week = 2.3

Required

Determine the probability of renting no more than 1 apartment

A Poisson distribution is given as;

P(X = x) = \frac{y^xe^{-y}}{x!}

Where y represents λ (average)

y = 2.3

<em>Probability of renting no more than 1 apartment = Probability of renting no apartment + Probability of renting 1 apartment</em>

<em />

Using probability notations;

P(X\leq 1) = P(X=0) + P(X =1)

Solving for P(X = 0) [substitute 0 for x and 2.3 for y]

P(X = 0) = \frac{2.3^0 * e^{-2.3}}{0!}

P(X = 0) = \frac{1 * e^{-2.3}}{1}

P(X = 0) = e^{-2.3}

P(X = 0) = 0.10025884372

Solving for P(X = 1) [substitute 1 for x and 2.3 for y]

P(X = 1) = \frac{2.3^1 * e^{-2.3}}{1!}

P(X = 1) = \frac{2.3 * e^{-2.3}}{1}

P(X = 1) =2.3 * e^{-2.3}

P(X = 1) = 2.3 * 0.10025884372

P(X = 1) = 0.23059534055

P(X\leq 1) = P(X=0) + P(X =1)

P(X\leq 1) = 0.10025884372 + 0.23059534055

P(X\leq 1) = 0.33085418427

P(X\leq 1) = 0.331

Hence, the required probability is 0.331

Jamie put 2 3/12pounds of green apples
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

5 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

So, lets add the whole numbers together and the fractions together.

2+3=5

3/12+5/12=8/12

8/12 can be simplified to 3/4

so 5 3/4

(Please give brainliest if this helped you, I'm trying to get an achievement)

What is 8 incresed by 25%<br> I NEED THIS ANSWERED ASAP!
ser-zykov [4K]
Ok so to find this we need to find 25% of 8 and then add that number to 8 itself. SO .25*8=2. So 2+8=10. So the answer is 10. IF you don't get it just ask and i can try to re explain
