Solve the proportion17/3 = y/6

1 answer:

7 0

To solve a proportion, you can either use cross products or basic multiplication.

To do cross products, you would multiply 17 (1st numerator) by 6 (2nd denominator).

Do the same with the other diagonal angle, 3 times y.

You'll end up with 3y = 102.

To solve for y, you divide both sides by 3.

102 ÷ 3 = 34

y = 34

The other way you could solve this is to see that 6 is 2 times as large as 3, so you would multiply 17 by 2 to get an equal proportion.

3 × 2 = 6
17 × 2 = 34

Your final answer is y = 34. Hope this helps! :)

Need help asap or Im going to fail this class

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

The first four.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 3 main postulates. SSS, SAS, and AAS. This simply refers to how we prove a triangle congruent. With SSS, all 3 sides must be congruent (either proven or given). AAS is when you have 2 angles congruent with a side next to one of the angles. NOT IN BETWEEN (there's an image as to what I'm talking about below). Finally, SAS. This is when you have a set of angles congruent with sides on each side congruent as well (look at the first four as an example of this.

The value of a certain car after one year was $13,595. The value of the same car after 3 years was $11,095. Find the slope and e

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

-1250/1 or -1250

This tells us that the car depreciated in value by $1250 every year.

Step-by-step explanation:

11,095-13,595= -2500

This is the value that the car has depreciated over 2 years (from the first year to the third year)

Since we need to find the slope we divide this value by two.

That value would be -1250

Since the value is negative, we know the car has depreciated in value. We also now know that it depreciated in value by $1250 every year

Hope this helps!

Find f if f′(x)=2x−3/x^4, x>0 and f(1)=2.

slavikrds [6]

$f'(x)=2x-\dfrac3{x^4}$
$\displaystyle\int f'(x)\,\mathrm dx=\int\left(2x-\frac3{x^4}\right)\,\mathrm dx$
$f(x)=x^2+\dfrac1{x^3}+C$

Given that $f(1)=2$ , we get

$2=1^2+\dfrac1{1^3}+C$
$2=2+C$
$\implies C=2$

so that

$f(x)=x^2+\dfrac1{x^3}$
