Which equation does NOT represent direct variation? A. Y=x/21 B. y/x=5/8 C. y-3= 3x D. y-5x=0

The gradient of the function is constant s the independent variable (x) varies The graph passes through the origin. That is to say when x = 0, y = 0. Clearly A and D pass through the origin, and the gradient is constant because they are linear functions, so they are direct variations. The graph of 1/x does not have a constant gradient, so any stretch of this graph (to y = k/x for some constant k) will similarly not be direct variation. Indeed there is a special name for this function, inverse proportion/variation. It appears both B and C are inverse proportion, however if I interpret B as y = (2/5)x instead, it is actually linear. I believe the answer is C. Hope I helped!

Direct variation means y=kx no other terms so the answer is c because y= 3x+3

State of the given functions are inverses. Part 3. NO LINKS!!!!

Effectus [21]

Answer:

h(x)=-x-1

let y =-x-1

interchanging role of x & y

x=-y-1

y=-x-1

h-¹(x)=-x-1

again

f(x)=(2-3x)/2

let

y=(2-3x)/2

interchanging role of x & y

x=(2-3y)/2

2x-2=-3y

y=(2-2x)/3

f-¹(x)=(2-2x)/3

Given function are not inverse of each other.

10.

f(x)=-x+3

let y=-x+3

interchanging role of x & y

x=-y+3

y=3-x

f-¹(x)=-x+3

equal to g(x)=-x+3

Given function are inverse of each other.

(7x-49x^2)/(7x) can smeone solve this? Thank you! I hope you have a great day!

svp [43]

Answer:

x = 1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{(7x-49x^2)}{7x}\\\\\frac{7x(1-7x)}{7x} \\\\1-7x=0\\\\1=7x\\\\$

x = 1/7

Jackie made $28 babysitting last week. her brother joe made only 86% as much as she did. how much did joe make?

strojnjashka [21]

Her brother joe made $52.08. First you need to make the percent into a decimal, like this 86% => .86. Then multiply .86 to $28. After that add what you got to $28.
