Direct variation means that changes in x will result to changes in y. If x increase, y also increases and vice versa.

y = kx
k = y / x

y = 45 ; x = 40

k = 45/40 
k = 1.125

y = 1.125x 

y will increase by 1.125 interval of x.

Answer:

an equation that relates x and y :

y = 1.125x

Step-by-step explanation:

The direct variation says that:

y \propto x

then equation is of the form:

y = kx where k is the constant of variation.

As per the statement:

The variables x and y vary directly.

then by definition we have;

y = kx                .....[1]

Given that: y = 45 and x = 40

Substitute these in [1] to solve for k;

45=40k

Divide both sides by 40 we have;

1.125 = k

Therefore, an equation that relates x and y :

y = 1.125x

6.371 in lowest terms
kozerog [31]
Well you would have to round this 5 and above goes up. Since 1 is lower than 5 that would leave you at 6.37. 7 rounds up so that would change to 6.4. Lastly 4 would round down, So that would leave you with 6. Now 6 is the simplest form but if your looking for rounded to the nearest tenth the answer would be 6.4. If your looking for rounded to the nearest 100th place 6.37. But over all simplest form is 6.

What is the formula for finding slope?
ozzi

Answer:

To find the slope of two given points, you can use the point-slope formula of (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). With the points plugged in, the formula looks like (3 - 2) / (4 - 1). Simplify the formula to get a slope of ⅓.

The length of a rectangle is 6 inches more than the width. The perimeter is 40 inches. Find the length and the width of the rect
eduard

Answer:

lenght = 13 inches

width = 7 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

p= 2(l+b)

let lenght be x

width be y

so x=y+6

40 = 2(y+6 + y)

40= 2( 2y+6 )

20= 2y +6

2y = 20-6

2y=14

y=7

x=7+6=13

so lenght is 13 inches

width is 7 inches
