Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

A direct variation equation has the following format:

y=kx

Where k is a constant.

We know that y is 12 when x is -2. Thus, substitute:

12=-2k

Divide both sides by -2:

k=-6

So, our direct variation equations is:

y=-6x

To find what x is when y equals -6, substitute in -6 for y:

-6=-6x

Divide both sides by -6:

x=1

So, our answer is 1 :)

What is the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the x-axis and passes through (3,-2)
34kurt

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that if we have an original line and we are finding the perpendicular we know that the slope of the second line is gonna be the negative reciprocal of the first line and given that we know it must be  perpendicular to the original line it will be heading downwards on the y axis with no slope so instead of y equals it will be x equals and we know that our x value of the point given is three so the answer is x = 3

The height of a building is 1734 ft. How long would it take an object to fall to the ground from the​ top? Use the formula s equ
koban [17]

Answer:

t is approximately 10.41 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

s = 16t^2

1734 = 16t^2

divide by 16

1734/16 = 16t^2/16

1734/16 = t^2

take the square root  of each side

sqrt(1734/16) = sqrt(t^2)

we only take the positive square root because time must be positive

sqrt(1734/16) = t

t is approximately 10.41 seconds
