Variable y varies directly with variable x, and y = 18 when x = 4. What is the constant of variation in decimal form?

1 answer:

5 0

To find the constant of variation, you must use the following equation:

y = kx

'k' is the constant of variation.

y = 18
x = 4
k = ?

18 = k(4)
18/4 = k
k = 4.5

Answer: The constant of variation is 4.5

If x =2 find the value of q in the equation 3x-4=x+q

Effectus [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

given x=2

and the equation

$3x - 4 = x + q$

to find the value of q , you need to make q the subject in the equation as shown below

q= 3x-x -4

q=2x-4

but x= 2

so just substitute the value of x in the equation for the q

$q = 2(2) - 4$

q=4-4

q=0

therefore the value of q is 0

kvv77 [185]

The height of the fence is irrelevant. The bottom of the ladder is 3+8 = 11 feet from the building. The window is 14ft above the ground:
sqrt(14^2+11^2) = length of your ladder.
