4x+5y=0

subtract 4x from each side

5y = -4x

divide by 5

y = -4/5 x

y = kx where k = -4/5

this is a direction variation

$\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{direct proportional variation} \\\\ \textit{\underline{y} varies directly with \underline{x}}\qquad \qquad y=kx\impliedby \begin{array}{llll} k=constant\ of\\ \qquad variation \end{array} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ 4x+5y=0\implies 5y=-4x\implies y=-\cfrac{4}{5}x\qquad \boxed{k=-\cfrac{4}{5}}\qquad \text{\Large\checkmark}$

Instructions:Select the correct answer from the drop-down menu. Dave is helping his grandmother make trail mix. His grandmother

Mazyrski [523]

Set up a proportional relationship:

xf/1n=(f/5)/(n/3)

xf/1n=3f/(5n) multiply both sides by 1n

xf=3f/5 so

x=3/5

Dave must mix in 3/5 of a cup of fruit with a single cup of nuts.

You could of also just noted that you need to multiply 1/5 times 3 because 1/5 mixes with just 1/3 of a cup of nuts...

Find the slope of the line passing through the points , −8−3 and , −34 .

alukav5142 [94]

Slope of the line passing through two points P=(x1,y1) and Q=(x2,y2) is given by m=y2−y1/x2−x1.

We have that x1=−8, y1=−3, x2=−3, y2=4.

Plug given values into formula for slope: m=(4)−(−3)/(−3)−(−8)=7/5.

Now y-intercept is b=y1−m⋅x1 .

b=−3−(7/5)⋅(−8)=41/5.

Finally, equation of the line can be written in the form y=mx+b.

y=7/5x+41/5

Which of the following functions are solutions of the differential equation y'' + y = 3 sin x? (select all that apply)

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We must compute the derivatives and check if the equation is satisfied.

A. $y'=(3\sin x)'=3\cos x$ . Differentiate again to get $y''=(3\cos x)'=-3\sin x$ , then $y''+y=-3\sin x+3\sin x=0\neq 3\sin x$ so this choice of y doesn't solve the equation.

B. $y'=3\sin x+3x\cos x-5\cosx +5x\sin x=(5x+3)\sin x+(3x-5)\cos x$ and $y''=5\sin x+(5x+3)\cos x+3\cos x-(3x-5)\sin x=(10-3x)\sin x+(5x+6)\cos x$ , then $y''+y=10\sin x+6\cos x\neq 3\sin x$ so y is not a solution

C. $y'=\frac{-3}{2}\cos x+\frac{3}{2}x\sin x$ hence $y''=\frac{3}{2}\sin x+\frac{3}{2}\sin x+\frac{3}{2}x\cos x=3\sin x+\frac{3}{2}x\cos x$ . Then $y''+y=3\sin x+\frac{3}{2}x\cos x-\frac{3}{2}x\cos x=3\sin x$ so y is a solution.

D. $y'=-3\sin x$ and $y''=-3\cos x$ , then $y''+y=0$ thus y isn't a solution

E. $y'=\frac{3}{2}\sin x+\frac{3}{2}x\cos x$ hence $y''=\frac{3}{2}\cos x+\frac{3}{2}\cos x-\frac{3}{2}x\sin x=3\cos x-\frac{3}{2}x\cos x$ . Then $y''+y=3\cos x-\frac{3}{2}x\cos x-\frac{3}{2}x\cos x=3\cos x\neq 3\sin x$ then y is not a solution.
