If it is in this form, or can be transformed into this form: y =kx,
then it is indeed a direct variation!

This is a direct variation : y = 3x
Because it's constant of variation here is 3

Because in order for something to be a direct variation, it can have no 'b' or y-intercept. In this problem, you can see that it follows the form of y=mx. It has no 'b' term. Therefore, it is a direct variation.

If it were an indirect variation, i would have looked something like this...

y=3x+4...

Hope this helped!<span />

Find the value of x: 7e(×/3)=14

velikii [3]

<span>7e^(×/3)=14
</span><span>e^(×/3)=14/7
</span>e^(×/3)=2
take ln of both sides;
lne^(×/3)=ln2
****You should be familiar that lne^x=x as ln is the inverse function of e and vice versa****
then;
x/3=ln2
x=3ln2
x approximately is equal to 2.1

The graph of y=x^2 -7x+ 12 is a parabola with x-intercepts at

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{x-intercept is for y = 0}.\\\\\text{We have the function:}\ y=x^2-7x+12.\\\\\text{Put y = 0 and calculate the value(s) of x.}\\\\x^2-7x+12=0\\\\x^2-3x-4x+12=0\\\\x(x-3)-4(x-3)=0\\\\(x-3)(x-4)=0\iff x-3=0\ \vee\ x-4=0\\\\x-3=0\qquad\text{add 3 to both sides}\\\boxed{x=3}\\\\x-4=0\qquad\text{add 4 to both sides}\\\boxed{x=4}$
