Hello,

Let's r the ration

We suppose x ≠0

x=r*(x-2)==>r=x/(x-2)

x+3=r*x==> (x+3)/x=x/(x-2)==>(x+3)(x-2)=x²
==>x²+3x-2x-6=x² ==>x-6=0==>x=6

x-2=6-4=4
x=6
x+3=6+3=9
6=4*3/2
9=6*3/2

Ration 3/2
First term: 4

(3x+15) (6x+3) m<1 is
Allisa [31]

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

3x + 15 = 6x + 3

Reorder the terms:

15 + 3x = 6x + 3

Reorder the terms:

15 + 3x = 3 + 6x

Solving

15 + 3x = 3 + 6x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-6x' to each side of the equation.

15 + 3x + -6x = 3 + 6x + -6x

Combine like terms: 3x + -6x = -3x

15 + -3x = 3 + 6x + -6x

Combine like terms: 6x + -6x = 0

15 + -3x = 3 + 0

15 + -3x = 3

Add '-15' to each side of the equation.

15 + -15 + -3x = 3 + -15

Combine like terms: 15 + -15 = 0

0 + -3x = 3 + -15

-3x = 3 + -15

Combine like terms: 3 + -15 = -12

-3x = -12

Divide each side by '-3'.

x = 4

Simplifying

x = 4

What is the constant of variation for the quadratic variation? x 2 3 4 5 6 y 32 72 128 200 288
cluponka [151]
We use different models for different types of variation. For example, linear variation is associated with the formula y=ax, or the more familiar y=mx+b (the equation of a straight line). Cubic variation: y=a*x^3. In the present case we're discussing quadratic variation; perhaps that will ring a bell with you, reminding you that y=ax^2+bx+c is the general quadratic function. Now in y our math problem, we're told that this is a case of quadratic variation. Use the model y=a*x^2. For example, we know that if x=2, y =32. Mind substituting those two values into y=a*x^2 and solving for y? Then you could re-write y=a*x^2 substituting this value for a. Then check thisd value by substituting x=3, y=72, and see whether the resulting equation is true or not. If it is, your a value is correct. But overall I got 16!
