Answer:

a) y = 5x

b) y = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, y is directly proportional to x when y=30, x=6

$\therefore \: y \: \alpha \: \: x \\ \therefore \: y = kx ...(1) \\ plug \: y = 30 \: and \: x = 6 \: in \: eq \: (1)\\ 30 = k \times 6 \\ k = \frac{30}{6} \\ k = 5 \\ plug \: k = 5 \: in \: (1) \\ y = 5x....(2) \: (required \: equation) \\ plug \: x = 12 \: in \: eq \: (2) \\ y = 5 \times 12 \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{y = 60}}$

Solve the quadratic equation by completing the square. x^2 - 10x + 18 = 0

serious [3.7K]

Okay so basically, you subtract 18 on both sides since the 18 doesn't work, making the equation
x² - 10x = -18
So then you add (b/2)², which is 25, to both sides, to get
x² - 10x + 25 = 7
After this, you factor.
(x-5)(x-5) = 7
Then you simplify.
(x-5)² = 7
Then you solve for x.
√(x-5)² = √7
x-5 = (+ or -)√7

~ x= 5 (+ or -)√7 ~

Answer:

$a_n = -11 +3(n -1)$

Explanation:

The $n$ th term of an arithmetic sequence is explicitly defined as $a_n = a_1 +d(n -1)$ where $a_1$ is the first term of the sequence and $d$ is the the common difference.
