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

(Which is the simplified form of the expression ? 3(7/5x+4)-2(3/2-5/4x)
Illusion [34]

Answer:

let's see what to do buddy....

Step-by-step explanation:

3( \frac{7}{5}x + 4) - 2( \frac{3}{2} -  \frac{5}{4}x) \\  \\  =  \frac{21}{5}x + 12  - 3 +  \frac{5}{2}x \\  \\  =  \frac{(21 \times 2) + (5 \times 5)}{10}  x + 9 =  \\  \\  \frac{42 + 25}{10} x + 9 =  \frac{67}{10}x + 9 = 6.7x + 9

Explain the distance formula. Then use it to calculate the distance between A(1,1) and B (7,-7)
crimeas [40]

The distance formula is given by:

d=\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2} }

We are given two points A and B as

A(1,1) and

B(7,-7)

so we have ,

x1 = 1 , y1=1

x2= 7 and y2=-7

Plugging these in the formula we have:

d=\sqrt{(7-1)^{2}+(-7-1)^{2} }

d=√(36+64)

d=√100

d=10

Answer: The distance between A(1,1) and B(7,-7) is 10
