Answer:

k = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a varies directly as b then the equation relating them is

a = kb ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition a = 8 when b = 2

k = \frac{a}{b} = \frac{8}{2} = 4

Answer:

K = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that varies a directly as b then the equation relating them is

Simply implies that a is directly proportional to b, that is increase in a will cause increase in, and decrease in a will cause decrease in b, and vice versa, where k remains constant.

a α b

a = kb, where k is constant

To find k use the condition a = 8 when b = 2, we make k the subject of the formular

K = a/b

K = 8/2

K = 4

Find the value of n so that the expression is a perfect square trinomial and then factor the trinomial.
Anna007 [38]

The correct expression is (a) n = 100; (x + 10)^2

<h3>How to determine the value of n?</h3>

The expression is given as:

x^2 + 20x + n

Take the coefficient of x

k = 20

Divide by 2

k/2= 10

Square both sides

(k/2)^2 = 100

The above value represents the value of n

i.e.

n = 100

So, we have:

x^2 + 20x + 100

Expand

x^2 + 10x + 10x + 100

Factorize

x(x + 10) + 10(x + 10)

Factor out x + 10

(x + 10)^2

Hence, the correct expression is (a) n = 100; (x + 10)^2

I NEED HELP PLEASE, THANKS! :)

Answer:

x = 28.01t,

y = 10.26t - 4.9t^2 + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

If we are given that an object is thrown with an initial velocity of say, v1 m / s at a height of h meters, at an angle of theta ( θ ), these parametric equations would be in the following format -

x = ( 30 cos 20° )( time ),

y = - 4.9t^2 + ( 30 cos 20° )( time ) + 2

To determine " ( 30 cos 20° )( time ) " you would do the following calculations -

( x = 30 * 0.93... = ( About ) 28.01t

This represents our horizontal distance, respectively the vertical distance should be the following -

y = 30 * 0.34 - 4.9t^2,

( y = ( About ) 10.26t - 4.9t^2 + 2

In other words, our solution should be,

x = 28.01t,

y = 10.26t - 4.9t^2 + 2

<u><em>These are are parametric equations</em></u>
