When we say that y varies <em>directly </em>with x, we mean that whatever value x is scaled up by, y will be scaled up by, too. The simplest kind of direct variation is one where y = x for all values of x. If you multiply x by some value, y must be multiplied by that same value.
More generally, though, you'll have something of the form y = kx, where the variable k here is referred to as the <em /><em>constant of proportionality.</em> Another way you can think of k is as the <em>ratio of y to x</em>.
In this problem, you're given a set of values for x and y, and you'll need to use those to find the constant of proportionality before you set up an equation relating x to y. Substituting our general equation y = kx for the given values, we have:
-5 = k(15)
To get k, simply divide both sides by 15 to obtain:
k = -5/15 = -1/3
So, our general equation, for <em>any x</em>, would be y = (-1/3)x
Answer:
17, 18 and 19 ... ⇒3n+3=54
Find the length by dividing area by breadth:
144 /6 = 24 cm
Perimeter = 2breath + 2length
Perimeter = 2(6) + 2(24)
Perimeter = 12 + 48
Perimeter = 60 cm
How many colors and how many spaces are there?
D) EFGH moved onto E'F'G'H after rotating 180 counterclockwise around the origin and the reflecting across the y-axis.
<h3>How to carry out transformations?</h3>
From online resources gotten about this question, for quadrilateral EFGH and quadrilateral E'F'G'H to be congruent, what we must do first is to rotate 180° counterclockwise around the origin and then move EFGH onto E'F'G'H'.
The last step to get this proof of congruency is to reflect across the y-axis.
