Answer:
The first option is not a direct variation
Step-by-step explanation:
When we talk of a direct variation, as one value increases, the other value increases too
Or as one value decreases, the other value decreases
A direct variation is of the form;
y = kx
k = y/x
where k is the coefficient of variation that must be a constant value all through the set of values
The values we are comparing here are the x and y values
So
let us take a look at the options;
The first option is not a direct variation
For the first option, the rate of increase is not constant;
2/6 = 1/3 , 8/12 = 2/3 , 14/18 = 7/9
for the second;
the ratio is 1 to 1
for the third;
3/6 = 1/2 ; 6/12 = 1/2; 9/18 = 1/2
for the fourth;
2/6 = 1/3, 4/12 = 1/3 , 6/18 = 1/3
The answer would be a hope it helps
Answer:
-3+(-5)
Checking our answer:
Adding this does indeed give -8
When hav epoins (x1,y1) and (x2,y2)
slope is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(-3,4) and (5,-1)
slope=(-1-4)/(5-(-3))=-5/(5+3)=-5/8
slope=-5/8
Answer:
x = -2.5
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
We can remove the denominators by multiplying everything by it.
Solve:
Let's make one side equal to 0.
Solve by factoring, and then the zero product property.
Multiply 2 and -10. You get -20. Think of two number that multiply to -20, and add to 1. If we think about the standard form of a quadratic, 
, think two numbers that equal "ac" and add up to "b".
Using the zero product property, set each factor to 0 and solve for x.
- 2x + 5 = 0
2x = -5
x = -5/2 = -2.5 - x - 2 = 0
x = 2
The two answers are x = -2.5, and x = 2.
