If y is directly proportional to x and y = 11 when x = 6 , what is the value of y when x = 9

1 answer:

3 0

Since we are given that y is directly proportional to x and that when y = 11, x equals 6, we can set up a proportion. Before doing that however, we need to note that the question is asking for the value of y when x = 9. Here is the equation:
$\frac{11}{6} = \frac{y}{9}$
Now, just cross multiply and solve for y to get a value of 16.5. Therefore, the value of y when x = 9 is 16.5. Hope this helped and have a phenomenal day!

Answer:

≈ 27 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

using the tangent ratio in the right triangle formed by the building and the ground.

tan15° = $\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$ = $\frac{?}{100}$ ( multiply both sides by 100 )

100 × tan15° = ? , then

? ≈ 27 ft ( to the nearest whole number )

What is the solution set for this linear-quadratic system of equations?

Lostsunrise [7]

Y - x - 3 = 0
y = x + 3

y = x^2 - x - 12
x + 3 = x^2 - x - 12
x^2 - x - 12 - x - 3 = 0
x^2 - 2x - 15 = 0
(x - 5)(x + 3) = 0

x - 5 = 0 y = x + 3
x = 5 y = 5 + 3
y = 8

x + 3 = 0 y = x + 3
x = -3 y = -3 + 3
y = 0

so ur solutions are : (5,8) and (-3,0)

True or false: when comparing two populations, the larger the standard deviation, the more dispersion the distribution has,

SOVA2 [1]

True, because the standard deviation describes how far, on average, each observation is from the typical value. A larger standard deviation means that observations are more distant from the typical value, and therefore, more dispersed.
