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

Can somebody prove this mathmatical induction?

Flauer [41]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

1 step:

n=1, then

$\sum \limits_{j=1}^1 2^j=2^1=2\\ \\2(2^1-1)=2(2-1)=2\cdot 1=2$

So, for j=1 this statement is true

2 step:

Assume that for n=k the following statement is true

$\sum \limits_{j=1}^k2^j=2(2^k-1)$

3 step:

Check for n=k+1 whether the statement

$\sum \limits_{j=1}^{k+1}2^j=2(2^{k+1}-1)$

is true.

Start with the left side:

$\sum \limits _{j=1}^{k+1}2^j=\sum \limits _{j=1}^k2^j+2^{k+1}\ \ (\ast)$

According to the 2nd step,

$\sum \limits_{j=1}^k2^j=2(2^k-1)$

Substitute it into the $\ast$

$\sum \limits _{j=1}^{k+1}2^j=\sum \limits _{j=1}^k2^j+2^{k+1}=2(2^k-1)+2^{k+1}=2^{k+1}-2+2^{k+1}=2\cdot 2^{k+1}-2=2^{k+2}-2=2(2^{k+1}-1)$

So, you have proved the initial statement
