Answer:

the constant of variation,  k= 5/7

Step-by-step explanation:

if m varies directly as p, and m=5 when p=7, what is the constant of variation

m varies directly as p, so equation becomes

m = kp , where k is the constant of proportionality

m=5 when p=7, we need to find out k

Plug in the given values and find out k

m=k * p

5= k * 7

Divide by 7 on both sides

so k= 5/7

For direct relations, we can write:
m = kp; k is the constant of proportionality.
5 = 7k
k = 5/7
The constant of variation is 5/7.

Which equation represents a proportional relationship? Y=-5(x+1). Y=5x+1. Y=-x. Y=1/5x
Tema [17]
A proportional relationship is also a direct variation.
The general equation of direct cvariation is

y = kx,

where k is a number.

In your case, if k = -1, then y = kx becomes y = (-1)x which is the same as

y = -x

A cylindrical cardboard tube with a diameter of 8 centimeters and a height of 20 centimeters is used to package a gift. What is
Usimov [2.4K]
The volume of a cylinder can be calculated by multiplying the area of its base times the height. It is calculated as follows:

V = πr²h
V = π(8/2)²(20)
V = 1005.31 cm³

Therefore, the correct answer is option 1. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest common factor of 9, 18 and 21 is 3

Factor out 3 from each term

9a - 18b + 21c

= 3(3a - 6b + 7c) ← in factored form

What is the best description for the lines
jeyben [28]

Answer:

Lines are described as connecting curve joining two points.

Step-by-step explanation:

In coordinate geometry, graph theory, we have points which do not occupy any space.

Any two points can be connected by a curve or a straight line.  If two points are joined by a straight line, then we have the slope of the line i.e. the tangent of angle of the line with x axis is constant.

Straight lines would be of the form ax+by+c=0

Hence in equation form, lines would have equations in linear form of both x and y.

Lines have constant slope throughout the region.

Lines can be extended from -infinity to +infinity

Any two distinct  points can make a line, but 3 points need not lie on the same line.
