<span>Y is directly proportional to x^2. It could be represented by the expression:

y </span>α x^2

We can make it into an equality by inserting the proportionality constant, k.

y = kx^2

k would be constant for any value of y with a corresponding value of x. We solve the problem by this concept as follows:

y1/(x1)^2 = y2/(x2)^2
10/(x1)^2 = y2/(x1/2)^2
10/4 = y2

Therefore, when the value of x is halved, y is equal to 10/4.

Solve the equation<br> 7+3m=28<br> A)m=18<br> B)m=11 2/3<br> C)m=9<br> D)m=7
Shtirlitz [24]
Firstly, you would subtract 7 from both sides, leaving you with 3m=21. You would then divide by three in order to be left with total value of m. 3m divided by 3 is m. 21 divided by 3 is 7. Therefore m=7 :)

The low temperature in degrees Fahrenheit for 5 days was – 5, – 7, – 2, 2, and – 3. What was the average low temperature for tho
sammy [17]

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the average of different numbers, first you add them all up. So -5+-7+-2+2+-3+=-15. Then, you divide the sum of all the numbers by the amount of numbers there were. So in this case, there were 5 numbers so we would divide the sum of all of them by 5. So now we do -15/5=-3.

Another example of finding the average of numbers is 15+4+10+9+3+1. So first we add them up and we get 42, then again, we divide by the amount of numbers there are. So we do 40/6 and we get 7, so the average is 7.

I hope this helped.

Answer:

3,444

Step-by-step explanation:

The art teacher had 1321 pipe cleaners for a project

She used 477 with the fourth age

A parent donated 2,600 pipe cleaners

Therefore the number of pipe cleaners she have left can be calculated as follows

= 1321-477+2600

= 844 + 2600

= 3,444
