Direct variation is of the form: y=kx (inverse variation is of the form y=k/x)
Assuming that k is positive :)
y increases as x increases and y decreases as x decreases. There is a direct ratio that is described by k. k=y/x.
The answer to that would be “169”
Answer:
4.5 % alloy
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = amt of 30% alloy
The resulting total is to be 25 oz, therefore:
(25-x) = amt of 5% alloy:
A typical mixture equation:
.30x + .05(25-x) = .20(25)
.30x + 1.25 - .05x = 5 .30x - .05x = 5 - 1.25
.25x = 3.75
x = 3.75%2F.25
x = 15 oz of 30% alloy required
then
25-15 = 10 oz of 5% alloy:
Check solution
.30(15) + .05(10) = .20(25)
4.5 + .5 = 5
Answer:
2x+12
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+3(x-2)-3(x-6)
2x+3x-6-3x+18
2x-6+18
2x+12
