For a direct variation between each point (x, y),

\begin{gathered} x\propto y \\ x=ky \\ k=\frac{x}{y} \end{gathered}

For (x₁, y₁) = (3, 12),

\begin{gathered} k=\frac{3}{12} \\ k=0.25 \end{gathered}

To find n, consider (n, 8) = (x, y)

\begin{gathered} x=ky \\  \end{gathered}

Substituting,

\begin{gathered} n=0.25\times8 \\ n=2 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the value of n is 2

Simplified?
kap26 [50]

Answer:

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:

In order to find the answer, we need to convert the scientific notation into standard notation and then simplify by subtracting the decimals. Then we convert the standard notation back into scientific notation.

0.0007 - (4.9\times 10^{-7} )
4.9\times10^{-7} =0.00000049
0.0007-0.00000049
0.0007-0.00000049=0.00069951
=0.00069951
0.00069951=6.9951 \times10^{-7}
=6.9951 \times10^{-7}

Your answer is "6.9951 × 10^-7" or option B.

Hope this helps.

15, Evaluate 6 choose 4.
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:  The required result is 15.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to evaluate the following :

"6 choose 4".

Since we are to choose 4 from 6, so we have to use the combination of 6 different things chosen 4 at a time.

We know that

the formula for the combination of n different things chosen r at a time is given by

^nC_r=\dfrac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}.

For the given situation, n = 6  and  r = 4.

Therefore, we get

^6C_4=\dfrac{6!}{4!(6-4)!}=\dfrac{6!}{4!2!}=\dfrac{6\times5\times4!}{4!\times2\times1}=15.

Thus, the required result is 15.
