The quantities of x and y are proportional. Find the constant of proportionality (r) in the equation y= rx

Mathematics

Kruka [31]3 years ago

All you have to do is choose one of the rows, and then substitute in the values for x and y into the equation y = rx, and then solve for r:

- - - - - - - -

I'll choose the first row, where x = 8  when y = 2:

y=rx    <em>(substitute in, x = 8  and y = 2)</em>

2=r\times8    <em>(divide both sides by 8)</em>

\frac{2}{8}=r    <em>(simplify the fraction)</em>

\frac{1}{4}=r    <em>(Change to a decimal)</em>

0.25 = r

So

r=0.25

Answer:

r=0.25

Is the quotient of 3.6 divided by 9 greater or less than 1?
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

<h2>"less than 1".</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The given quotient is

\frac{3.6}{9}

In this case, before solving the quotient, we can ensure that its result is less than 1, because the numerator is less than the denominator, this is called a "proper fraction", and those fraction always ends in a number less than 1.

\frac{3.6}{9}=0.4

Therefore, the answer is "less than 1".

<h2>Answer and Explanation to questions 13,14,15</h2>

13) \mathbf{\overline{XY}\cong\overline{CD}}        as given in the question.

14) \mathbf{\overline{XY}\cong\overline{YZ}}          Since Y is the midpoint of XZ. So, Y will divide XZ in equal halves into XY and YZ.

15) \mathbf{\overline{CD}\cong\overline{YZ}}

\because\overline{\textrm{XY}}\cong\overline{\textrm{CD}} and \overline{\textrm{XY}}\cong\overline{\textrm{YZ}} . So, \overline{\textrm{CD}}\cong\overline{\textrm{YZ}}

<h2>Answer and Explanation to questions 16,17,18</h2>

∠3 is supplementary to ∠1 means: ∠3 + ∠1 = 180°

And, according to figure ∠1 + ∠2 = 180° as ∠1 and ∠2 form a straight line.

∠3 + ∠1 = 180°    .............(i)

∠1 + ∠2 = 180°    .............(ii)

subtracting equation (i) and (ii) will give ∠3 = ∠2   ..........(iii)

15) ∠3 is supplementary to ∠1                        as given in the question

16) ∠2 is supplementary to ∠1                        as shown be equation (ii)

18) ∠3 ≅ ∠2                                                      as shown by equation (iii)

<h2>Answer and Explanation to questions 19</h2>

∠3 and ∠4 form a straight line. Therefore, ∠3 + ∠4 = 180°   .......(i)

∠4 and ∠5 form a straight line. Therefore, ∠4 + ∠5 = 180°   .......(ii)

subtracting equation (i) and (ii)

∠3 + ∠4 - (∠4 + ∠5) = 180°-(180°)

∠3 + ∠4 - ∠4 - ∠5 = 180°-180°

∠3 - ∠5 = 0

∴ ∠3 = ∠5     (Hence Proved)

Suppose a line segment has endpoints A(4,-5) and R(-3,9). The line is reflected over the x- axis. What are the coordinates of R'
enot [183]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

We really don't care about A' because it's not something the question wants, so let's just focus on R.

R reflected across the x-axis is the same as flipping the sign of the y coordinate. So, R'=(-3, -(9))=(-3, -9).

So, the answer is \boxed{D} and we're done!
