It is given that z varies directly with x and inversely with the square of y so it follows:

z=k\frac{x}{y^2}

It is also given that z=18 when x=6 and y=2 so it follows:

\begin{gathered} 18=k\frac{6}{2^2} \\ k=\frac{18\times4}{6} \\ k=12 \end{gathered}

So the equation of variation becomes:

z=12\frac{x}{y^2}

Therefore the value of z when x=7 and y=7 is given by:

\begin{gathered} z=\frac{12\times7}{7^2} \\ z=\frac{12}{7} \\ z\approx1.7143 \end{gathered}

Hence the value of z is 12/7 or 1.7143.

Ross has to fill up a 300 gallon tank. There are already 75
stepan [7]

Answer: He needs 9 hours  to finish the task.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, first we have to subtract the gallons of water already in the tank (75) to the total capacity of the tank (300).

300-75 = 225

He needs to fill 225 gallons.

Since the pump Ross uses can fill 25 gallons of water per hour, the proportion is :

25 g / 1h

For 225 gallons:

225 g / x hours  

Solving for x

25/1 = 225/x

x= 225/ (25/1)

x = 9 hours

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line shown.
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

y = 2x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope using the points, (1, -3) and (3, 1):

slope(m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{1 -(-3)}{3 - 1} = \frac{4}{2} = 2

m = 2

Find the y-intercept (b) by substituting x = 1, y = -3, and m = 2 in y = mx + b

-3 = (2)(1) + b

-3 = 2 + b

Subtract 2 from both sides

-3 - 2 = 2 + b - 2

-5 = b

b = -5

Plug in the value of m and b into the slope-intercept form equation, y = mx + b.

Thus:

y = 2x +(-5)

✅y = 2x - 5
