Answer:

The constant of proportionality is 2

The equation is y=2x

Step-by-step explanation:

The unit price or unit rate is $2

Let y represent the price of tomatoes, then the price of x tomatoes is

$y=2x$ dollars.

This represents a direct variation.

This equation is of the form $y=kx$ , where k=2 is the constant of proportionality.

1. Simplify. 5–1(3–2)

konstantin123 [22]

Answer with explanation:

Using following law of indices

$1.x^a \times x^b=x^{a+b}\\\\2. (x^m)^n=x^{mn}\\\\ 3. x^{-n}=\frac{1}{x^n}\\\\4. \frac{x^m}{x^n}=x^{m-n}$

$1.5^{-1}\times 3^{-2}=\frac{1}{5}\times\frac{1}{3^2}\\\\=\frac{1}{5\times9}\\\\=\frac{1}{45}\\\\2. \frac{mn^{-4}}{p^0*q^{-2}}=\frac{mq^2}{n^4}\\\\ 3.0.0042=4.2\times 10^3\\\\4.6.12 \times 10^3=6.12 \times 1000=6120\\\\ 5.0.5 \times(8\times10^5})=\frac{1}{2}\times8 \times 10^5=4\times 10^5\\\\6. (9 \times 10^3)^2=9^2 \times (10^3)^2=81 \times 10^6\\\\7.( \frac{1}{2}a^{-4}\times b^2 )_{a=-2,b=4}{\text{or}}( \frac{1}{2}a^{4}\times b^{-2} )_{a=-2,b=4}=\frac{1}{2}\times (-2)^{-4}\times(4)^2{\text{or}}=\frac{1}{2}\times (-2)^{4}\times(4)^{-2}=\frac{16}{2\times16}=\frac{1}{2}$

$9. (4\times x\times y^2)^3\times (xy)^5=4^3\times x^3\times (y^2)^3\times x^5 \times y^5\\\\=64\times x^{3+5}\times y^{5+6}\\\\=64x^8y^{11}\\\\10.(2\times t^3)^3(0.4\times r)^2=2^3 \times (t^3)^3\times (0.4)^2 \times r^2=8\times t^9 \times 0.16 \times r^2=1.28r^2t^9$

8. A number raised to a negative exponent is negative.

Explaining with the help of few examples

$1.2^{-3}=\frac{1}{2^3}=\frac{1}{8}\\\\ 2.(-3)^{-3}=\frac{1}{(-3)^{3}}=\frac{-1}{27}$

Option C: Sometimes

1.Option B

2.Option A

3.Option C

4.Option A

5.Option D

6. $81 \times 10^6$

7.Option B

A triangle has the coordinates

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

coordinates of its image

A' = ( -4, -1)

B' =( -3, -3)

C' = ( 0, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Reflect in y-axis means mirror it's points in the y -axis.

This means that the x coordinate of each point, changes only. Any mirrored point in the y-axis, will change only, by multiplying the x-coordinate by -1.

(Remember, zero multiplied by -1 remains 0).

Given are these points A, B, and C.

A = (4, -1)

B = (3,-3)

C = (0, 2)

After mirroring in the y- axis you get:

A' = ( -4, -1)

B' =( -3, -3)

C' = ( 0, 2)

How much times can 6 go into 48

DENIUS [597]

6 can go into 48 8 times. How I figured out?
Start multiplying from a small number like
6×6= 36
6×7=42
6×8= 48
until you see your number 48, or a number that is lower that 48, but can not go any higher than 48.
