Answer:
OPtion B
Step by step explanation:
Lets plug in a random value for x.
Lets say 5 is x
-8(-5-5)=(y+1)^2
5-5 = 0
-8(0) = 0
0 = (y+1)^2
Square root of both sides
0 = y+1
subtract one from both sides
-1 = y
that means the x is 5 and the y is -1. Option B illustrates exactly that!
Answer:
k = 42
the constant of proportionality in this inverse variation is 42.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of people that want cake
And y the number of slices each can have;
Since x is inversely proportional to y;
x = k/y .....1
Where k is the proportionality constant;
To solve for k, we will substitute any of the case scenario given into equation 1.
If 14 people want cake, then they can each have 3 slices;
x = 14 , y = 3
substituting;
14 = k/3
k = 14 × 3 = 42
k = 42
the constant of proportionality in this inverse variation is 42.
Therefore,
x = 42/y
Step Number 1. is to Simplify
Step Number 2. <span>Simplify so you get </span>
Done! :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving for x means you have to factor. First factor out the GCF of 2 to get:
and now we'll factor using the regular old method of ac and then factoring by grouping. In our polynomial, a = 3, b = 1, c = -6. Therefore, a times c is 3 * -6 which is -18. We need some combinations of the factors of 18 that will add to give us 1, the b term in the middle. The factors of 18 are:
1, 18
2, 9
3, 6 and that's it. Hm...it seems that won't work, so let's throw this into the quadratic formula, going back to the original and a = 6, b = 2 and c = -12:
and
and
and
and
which finally simplifies to
No wonder that didn't factor using the traditional method of factoring! We could have found that out by finding first the value of the discriminant, but oh well!
Answer:
C = 56.52 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following data;
Diameter, D = 18 inches
Pie, π = 3.14
To find the circumference of the circle;
Mathematically, the circumference of a circle is given by the formula;
Circumference of circle, C = πD
Where, D is the diameter of a circle.
Substituting into the formula, we have;
C = 3.14 * 18
C = 56.52 inches
