Answer:

8/11

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 12 + 20 = 32 nurses and 32 + 12 = 44 staff in all. The answer is 32 / 44 = 8 / 11.

For a direct variation describe how the constant of variation affects whether y increases or decreases as x increases
Goryan [66]
Direct variation is of the form: y=kx  (inverse variation is of the form y=k/x)

Assuming that k is positive :)

y increases as x increases and y decreases as x decreases.  There is a direct ratio that is described by k.  k=y/x.

Can anyone teach plsssss........................ Given that PR= 17cm and SR= 6cm.Find the length, in cm of TS. ​
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

9cm

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Since PQST is a rectangle, ∠QST=∠QSR=∠90º. So triangle QSR is a right triangle.
  2. By the Pythagorean Theorem and that SR=6 and QR=10, we can say that 6^2+b^2=10^2. So, 36+b^2=100. And b^2=64 and b=8. So QS=8.
  3. Now we know that QS=PT=8.
  4. By the Pythagorean Theorem and that PR=17 and PT=8, we can say a^2+8^2=17^2. So, a^2+64=289. And a^2=225 and a=15.
  5. We know that TR=15 and SR=6 and TR-SR=TS, so 15-6=9.

Schach [20]

Answer:  (2,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Substitute y=0 into first equation and solve for "x" in order to find the x-intercept of the first line:

0=-\frac{1}{2}x+3\\\\-3=-\frac{1}{2}x\\\\(-3)(-2)=x\\\\x=6

2. Substitute x=0 into the first equation and solve for "y" in order to find the y-intercept of the first line:

y=-\frac{1}{2}(0)+3\\\\y=3

Knowing that first line passes through the points (6,0) and (0,3), you can graph it.

3. Substitute y=0 into second equation and solve for "x" in order to find the x-intercept:

0=2x-2\\\\2=2x\\\\x=1

4. Substitute x=0 into the second equation and solve for "y" in order to find the y-intercept of the second line:

y=2(0)-2\\\\y=-2

Knowing that second line passes through the points (1,0) and (0,-2), you can graph it.

The solution of the system of equations is the point of intersection between the lines. Therefore, the solution of this system is:

(2,2)
