Mathematics
1 answer:
BARSIC [14]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

a) x = -270

b) y = 304/9 or y = 33.78

c) x = -37.8

Step-by-step explanation:

y varies directly with x so y = kx

a)

y = kx

k = y/x

k = 10/-30 = -1/3

So

y = -1/3 x

If y = 90 then

90 = -1/3 x

x = 90 *(-3) = -270

b)

k = y/x

k = -19/-4.5

k = 38/9

So

y = 38/9 x

If x = - 8 then

y = 38/9 *(-8)

y = 304/9 or y = 33.78

c)

k = y/x

k = -4.3 / 12.9

k = - 1/3

So

y = -1/3 x

If y = 12.6 then

12.6 = -1/3 x

x = 12.6 *(-3)

x = -37.8

Wayne and Winston are scuba diving and are ascending to the surface. The function y = 30x − 105 represents Wayne’s elevation in
arsen [322]
The function that represents Wayne´s elevation:
y = 30 x - 105
The function that represents Winston´s elevation:
- 100 = 0 m + b
b = -100
-16 = 3m - 100
3 m = 84
m = 84 : 3 = 28
y = 28 x - 100
Surface level: y = 0
Wayne:
0 = 30 x - 105
x = 3.5 minutes
Winston:
0 = 28 x - 100
x = 3.57 minutes
If they both ascend at the same rate, Wayne will be first to the surface.

A crystallographer measures the horizontal spacing between molecules in a crystal. The spacing is 14.8 nm . What is the total wi
IrinaK [193]
Answer: 1539.2nm

The space between molecule is going as X-1 function. That mean 1 molecule doesn't have space, 2 molecules have 1 space, 3 molecules have 2 space. Then 105 molecules will be will have 104 space.
Each space is 14.8nm, the total  distance would be: 104 space x 14.8 nm/space= 1539.2nm
