Answer:

The answer is 2.

2  since 6/4=3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since your relation is a direct variation then the points on your line are of the form y=kx where k is the constant of variation (also called constant of proportionality)

If y=kx then y/x=k.

So all the points in this relation since it is a direct variation will be equal to y-coordinate/x-coordinate.

So we are going to solve this proportion:

\frac{6}{4}=\farc{3}{x}

Again I put y/x from each point. They should have same ratio because this is a direct variation.

Cross multiply:

6(x)=4(3)

6x=12

Divide boht sides by 6:

x=\frac{12}{6}

x=2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You are solving for the direct variation. This means that the amount of change for is consistent for both x & y:

Note: (x , y) & (x₁ , y₁)

(x , y) = (4 , 6)

(x₁ , y₁) = (x , 3)

Set the two equal to each other:

(4 , 6) = (x , 3)

Find common denominators (y). Remember that what you multiply to one you multiply to the other:

(4 , 6) = (x * 2, 3 * 2) = (2x , 6)

Simplify. Isolate the variable x. Divide:

(4) = (2x)

(4)/2 = (2x)/2

x = 4/2

x = 2

x = 2 is your answer.

What makes this bond correct <br> 3/4+__=2<br> WHATS THE ANSWER
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

The answer is 5/6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets start with a=1.

a+1=2, which is the denominator. (1/2)

Taking the same number as numerator, now, consider a=2.

a+1=3, denominator.(2/3)

Now, let a=3.

a+1==4, denominator for a=3. (3/4)

If continued a becomes equal to 4.

a+1=5, which is also the denominator. (4/5)

Now, since the denominator is 5, let a=5.

a+1=6, which will become the denominator. (5/6)

Thus the series follows a pattern of a/a+1.

The ratios of the measures of the angles in a triangle is 3:10:7. Find the measure of the smallest angle. Just write the numeric
Burka [1]
Answer to written question:
3x + 10x + 7x = 180
Combine like terms
20x = 180
Divide by 20
x = 9
Smallest angle 3x = 3*9 = 27 degrees

Answer to question in picture:
30/6x-2 = 36/5x + 13
Cross multiply
30(5x + 13) = 36(6x-2)
Distribute
150x + 390 = 216x - 72
Subtract 150x
390 = 66x - 72
Add 72
462 = 66x
Divide by 66
x = 7
