Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Casey has some number of video games at the beginning called x. He sells half which is 1/2 x. Then he buys 3 more so 1/2 x + 3. This is equal to his current amount which is 27. So 1/2 x + 3 = 27. Solve for x.

1/2 x + 3 = 27

1/2 x =24

x = 48

8. Suppose y varies directly as x. If y = -4 when x = 32, find x when ys -0.​
Nata [24]

Answer:

x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form y/x=k or y=kx

in this problem

For x=32, y=-4

Find the value of the constant of proportionality k

k=y/x

substitute

k=-\frac{4}{32}

simplify

k=-\frac{1}{8}

so

The linear equation is

y=-\frac{1}{8}x

Find x when the value of y=0

Remember that

In a proportional relationship <u><em>the line passes through the origin</em></u>

so

If y=0

then

the value of x must be equal to zero

therefore

x=0
