Answer:
y =
x²
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that y and x² are directly proportional then the equation relating them is
y = kx² ← k is the constant of proportion
When x = 2
y = k × 2² = 4k
When x = 5
y = k × 5² = 25k
Then
25k - 4k = 20 ( difference between values is 20 )
21k = 20 ( divide both sides by 21 )
k = 
y =
x² ← equation of proportion
Answer: wow
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
if the equation is what i think it is, its
4 x (3+2) - 11 = 9
3+2=5
4x5=20
20-11=9
Using algebra...
n and n+2 are the integers
n*(n+2)=288
n^2+2n=288
n^2+2n-288=0
288=2*2*2*2*2*3*3=(2*2*2*2)*(2*3*3)=16*18 and 18-16=2
factor
(n+18)(n-16)=0
n+18=0
n=-18
n+2=-16
this is one solution
n-16=0
n=16
n+2=18
this is another solution
as you can see, it's just a matter of factoring
288
using arithmetic...
√288=16.97≈17
16 and 18 are the integers (as well as -16 and -18)
Greetings!
"Write and solve an equation to determine how many servings of this item ...exactly 45 grams of cholesterol"...
The
variable in this equation would be the
amount of servings she can eat of the items.
Lets represent this as

;

=amount of servings
The item has
30 mg of cholesterol and she wants to only consume
45 mg.
The equation would be:

Solve for
x.
Divide both sides by
30.

Simplify.

Alisa can consume
1.5 servings of the item each day.
Hope this helps.
