Answer:
x = 4/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Direct variation:
y = kx
We use the given x-y point to find k.
6 = k * 2/3
k = 6 * 3/2
k = 9
The equation is
y = 9x
For y = 12,
12 = 9x
x = 12/9
x = 4/3
I would review this back again later.
<span>The table shows the outputs, y, for different inputs, x:
Input (x) 1 3 5 7
Output (y) 8 6 5 4
Part A: Do the data in this table represent a function? Justify your answer. (3 points)
Yes, the data in the table represent a function. The reason is that given an input (value of x), in the domain of the function (which is 1, 3, 5, 7), you can state the correspondant output (value of y) without ambiguity.
Part B: Compare the data in the table with the relation f(x) = 4x + 8. Which relation has a greater value when x = 3? (2 points)
x = 3 => f(3) = 4(3) + 8 = 12 + 8 = 20
While the image of 3 in the data is y = 6.
So, the function f(x) = 4x + 8 has a greater value when x = 3.
Part C: Using the relation in Part B, what is the value of x if f(x) = 76? Be sure to show all your work.
f(x) = 76 = 4x + 8 => 4x = 76 - 8 = 68
=> x = 68/4 = 17

*NOT MY WORK ITS FROM SOMEONE ELSE WHO ASKED THE SAME PROBLEM*
Answer: x=15, y= 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: x=15, y=10
*Note: x and y are only variables used to solve this problem, but know that the two numbers are 15 and 10.
Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem, we can use system of equations. Let's use x for one number and y for the other.
First Equation:
x+y=25
We get this equation because it states that the sum of the two numbers is 25.
Second Equation:
y=x-5
We get this equation because it says one number (y) is 5 less than the other (x).
Since we have two equations, we can use substitution method to solve.
[distribute 1 to (x-5)]
[combine like terms]
[add both sides by 5]
[divide both sides by 2]
Now that we have x, we can plug it into any of the equations to find y.
[plug in x=15]
[subtract both sides by 15]
Finally, we have our answer, x=15 and y=10.
