Our basis would be 204 pounds. His original weight, 6 week ago, must be

204 + 2(6) = 216 pounds

But, we have to find the number of weeks having known the present weight (204 pounds) and the target weight (189). The linear equation would be

Target \ weight = \ Present \ weight \ -2(number \ of \ weeks)

189 = 204 - 2(number of weeks)
Number of weeks = (204-189)/2
Number of weeks = 7.5

The total number of weeks would then be 6 weeks + 7.5 weeks. It would take Omar 13 and a half weeks since he started his diet to reach his target weight.

Write an equation for a parabola with x-intercepts (-4,0) and (5,0) which passes through the point (3. – 28).
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

y=a(x-p)(x-q)

y=a(x+2+√2)(x+2-√2)

passing through point (-1,1)

substitute

1=a(-1+2+√2)(-1+2-√2)

1=a(1+√2)(1-√2)

1=a(1-2)

1=a(-1)

a=1/(-1)

a=-1

y=-(x+[2+√2])(x+[2-√2])

y=-(x2+4x+2)

What is the constant of proportionality in the equation?
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The constant of proportionality is option D i.e 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Variation:

Variation problems involve fairly simple relationships or formulas, involving one variable being equal to one term. There are two types of variation i.e.

  1. Direct variation
  2. Inverse variation

Direct Variation:

Mathematical relationship between two variables that can be expressed by an equation in which one variable is equal to a constant times the other.

Example y=kx

where, k  is constant of proportionality.

The above given example is of Direct Variation

∴ y = 5 x

∴ k = 5 = constant of proportionality.

Inverse Variation:

Mathematical relationship between two variables which can be expressed by an equation in which the product of two variables is equal to a constant.

Example yx=k

where, k  is constant of proportionality.
