1. To solve this problem and calculate the value of <span> "x" when "y" is 14.4, you must apply the following formulla:
 
 y=k/x
 
 k: </span> It is the constant of variation or constant of proportionality.
 
 2. So, keeping this on mind, you must calculate the value o the constant of variation "k", with the values given in the problem. Then, you have:
 
 k=yx
 k=(6)(12)
 k=32
 
 3. Now, you can apply the equation y=k/x and clear the "x" to find its value:
 
 yx=k
 x=k/y
 
 k=32
 y=14.4
 
 4. Then, you have:
 
 x=32/14.4
 
 5. Therefore, the answer is:
 
 x=2.22

Plz help me with this
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

It's the first option.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = cos x transformed  to cos (x - π/2) moves  the graph  π/2 units to the right.

Multiplying by 3 to give 3 cos(x -  π/2)  stretches the graph 3 units parallel to the y-axis and adding 3 to this moves the graph up 3 units.

So the required equation is y = 3(cos x -  π/2) + 3.

0.04 rounded to the nearest hundreth<br><br> and <br><br> 0.2% rounded to the nearest hundreth
ELEN [110]
To round a number, you look to the next place to the right of what you want to round to... for example, if you want to round to the nearest hundredth, you look to the thousandths place to see whether the hundredths place rounds up or down.

0.04 is already at the hundredths place so the thousandths place is zero... the answer to the nearest hundredth is 0.04.

For 0.2%, you have to convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100 (move the decimal 2 places to the left).

0.2% = 0.002

So now to round to the nearest hundredth, we look to the thousandths place. The thousandths place has a 2 in it so the hundredths place rounds down. 0.2% total he nearest hundredth is 0.
