Answer:

a. The graph has a constant of variation of 3, so it represents a direct variation.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a graph and we are asked to find whether our given graph represents direct variation or not.

Since we know that a direct variation is an equation in slope-intercept form, which passes through origin (0,0) and constant of variation equals to the slope of the line.

Direct variation equation is in form: y=kx, where k= constant of variation.

Slope intercept equation of line is in form: y=mx+b, where m= slope and b= y-intercept.            

Let us find equation of our given line in slope-intercept form.

We can see from our given graph that our line passes through the origin, so y-intercept (b) equals zero.

Let us find slope of our given line.      

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

m=\frac{3-0}{1-0}  

m=\frac{3}{1}=3

Upon substituting m=3 and b=0 in slope intercept form of equation we will get: y=3x+0. Upon comparing our line with direct variation equation we can see that k=3, therefore, option a is the correct choice.

HELP PLS! asap!! what is the resulting ordered pair if the value of the independent variable is 5?
Serga [27]
Independent variable is 5 means x = 5
solve for f(x) when x = 5
f(5) = -2(5) +1
f(5) = -10 + 1
f(5) = -9

Solution (5,-9)

Prove this identity using the product-to-sum identity for sin... sin^2 x=(1-cos(2x))/(2)
Simora [160]

Answer:

sin²x = (1 - cos2x)/2 ⇒ proved down

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ sin²x = (sinx)(sinx) ⇒ add and subtract (cosx)(cosx)

(sinx)(sinx) + (cosx)(cosx) - (cosx)(cosx)

∵ (cosx)(cosx) - (sinx)(sinx) = cos(x + x) = cos2x

∴ - cos2x + cos²x = -cos2x + (1 - sin²x)

∴ 1 - cos2x - sin²x = (1 - cos2x)/2 ⇒ equality of the two sides

∴ (1 - cos2x) - 1/2(1 - cos2x) = sin²x

∴ 1/2(1 - cos2x) = sin²x

∴ sin²x = (1 - cos2x)/2
