If x is directly proportional to y and x = 6 when y = 18, what is x when y = 24?

If x is directly proportional to y, it means that as x increase, y also increases and vice versa. This could be done another way. Since I am already given a point of x and y, I could simply find the difference between x and y, which would be 12 in this case. To find the x value when y is 24, I would simply either add or subtract that difference. Depending on which of the x or y value is higher. In this case, since we are solving for y and y is larger than x, I would subtract it. Meaning x would be 12.

Inequality to x2 < 64
Anarel [89]
              NOT MY WORDS TAKEN FROM A SOURCE!

(x^2) <64  => (x^2) -64 < 64-64 => (x^2) - 64 < 0 64= 8^2    so    (x^2) - (8^2) < 0  To solve the inequality we first find the roots (values of x that make (x^2) - (8^2) = 0 ) Note that if we can express (x^2) - (y^2) as (x-y)* (x+y)  You can work backwards and verify this is true. so let's set (x^2) - (8^2)  equal to zero to find the roots: (x^2) - (8^2) = 0   => (x-8)*(x+8) = 0       if x-8 = 0 => x=8      and if x+8 = 0 => x=-8 So x= +/-8 are the roots of x^2) - (8^2)Now you need to pick any x values less than -8 (the smaller root) , one x value between -8 and +8 (the two roots), and one x value greater than 8 (the greater root) and see if the sign is positive or negative. 1) Let's pick -10 (which is smaller than -8). If x=-10, then (x^2) - (8^2) = 100-64 = 36>0  so it is positive
2) Let's pick 0 (which is greater than -8, larger than 8). If x=0, then (x^2) - (8^2) = 0-64 = -64 <0  so it is negative3) Let's pick +10 (which is greater than 10). If x=-10, then (x^2) - (8^2) = 100-64 = 36>0  so it is positive Since we are interested in (x^2) - 64 < 0, then x should be between -8 and positive 8. So  -8<x<8 Note: If you choose any number outside this range for x, and square it it will be greater than 64 and so it is not valid.

Hope this helped!

Solvę for x. Assume that lines which appear tangent are tangent.
Tom [10]

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

Use secant-tangent product theorem.

1. Set up the equation

(x-3)(x-3+5) = (x-1)²

2. Solve

(x-3)(x+2) = (x²-2x+1)

(x²-x-6) = (x²-2x+1)

3. Solve for x

Subtract x² from both sides

-x-6 = -2x+1

Add 2x and 6 to both sides

x = 7
