From the statement, y varies directly with x. It can be expressed as:

y α x

To change it to an equality, we insert a proportionality constant k.

y = kx

We first solve for k,

8 = k(-4)
k = -2

Therefore, when x = 7,

y = -2(7)
y = -14

For direct variation, y = kx
8 = -4k
k = 8/-4 = -2

Therefore, required equation is y = -2x

when x = 7, y = -2(7) = -14

Jim makes the chart shown below to prove that Triangle APD is congruent to triangle BPC:
Oliga [24]

Answer:

Given a square ABCD and an equilateral triangle DPC and given a chart with which Jim is using to prove that triangle APD is congruent to triangle BPC.

From the chart, it can be seen that Jim proved that two corresponding sides of both triangles are congruent and that the angle between those two sides for both triangles are also congruent.


Therefore, the justification to complete Jim's proof is "SAS postulate"

Can someone help please
Ira Lisetskai [31]
Hello there! I can help you! The formula for compound interest is P(1 + r)^t, where P= principal (initial amount), r = interest rate (in decimal form), and t = time (in years). Let's do this step by step. First off, we add the rate into 1. 4% is the interest rate (0.04 in decimal form). 1 + 0.04 is 1.04. Now, what we will do is raise that number to the 2nd power, because the time that elapses is 2 years. 1.04² is 1.0816. That's that. Now, multiply 7,500 to find the total amount of money. 1.0816 * 7,500 is 8,112. There. Toby's savings account balance in 2 years is £8,112.

Note: To solve for compound interest questions like it, add 1 to the percentage rate in decimal form, raise that number to a power based on the number of years (for example, raise the number to the 7th power if we are looking for the balance after 7 years), and then multiply that number by the starting amount. After you raise the number by a power, there may be a lot of numbers behind it. Whatever you do, DO NOT delete the number. Keep it there and multiply it by the principal.
