x = number

the equation to use is: 3x+4=28


3x+4=28

3x=24

x-24/3 =8

x=8

For each function, y varies directly with x. Find each constant variation. Then find the value of y when x= -0.3.
prohojiy [21]
You meant "find the constant of proportionality"

Given <span>y=2 when x= -1/2, and looking for a formula such as y = k*x, 
substitute the given value (2) for y and the given value (-1/2) for x:

2 = k * (-1/2).  Solve this for k.      Then write out the general formula y = k * x, and let x= -0.3.</span>

the vertex of a parabola is (-1.5, -12.5), and its y-intercept is (0, -8).the x-intercepts of the parabola are -2,0 -4,0 2,0 4,0
sineoko [7]
Hello,

y=k(x+3/2)²-25/2
and -8=k*9/4-25/2==>9/4k=9/2==>k=9/2*4/9=2

y=2(x+3/2)²-25/2

x- intercepts:
y=0=2(x+3*2)²-25/2
==>(x+3/2)²=25/4
==>x=-3/2-5/2 or x=-3/2+5/2

==>x=-4 or x=1

(-4,0) and (1,0) are x intercepts

Bots have answered this for the past two times but I still need help. The question is below.
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

a. False

b. True

c. True

d. I think it's true

e. False

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The unit rate is 19.75 gallons per minute

b. It is true because when x=0 y is also equal to 0, therefore it passes through the origin

c. 19.75 is about 20, and 20 multiplied by 5 is 100

d. Like I said before I don't know but I hope you get it correct ._.

e. When x=8 the equation would be 19.75*8 which is equal to 158 not 150

The given polygon has a perimeter of 3 + 5 + 4 + 6 = 18
A similar polygon has sides that are 3 times as big ot 9 + 15 + 12 + 18 = 54

The ratio is 18/54 or 1/3
