Answer:

Joint variation states:

if y varies jointly with x and z

then the equation we get;

y = k \cdot xz

where, k is the constant of variation.

As per the statement:

If y varies jointly with x and z

Using above definition we have;

⇒y = k \cdot xz       ....[1]

y = 200 when x = 8 and z = 10

Substitute these value in [1]  to solve for k;

200 = k \cdot 8 \cdot 10

⇒200 = 80k

Divide both sides by 80 we have;

2.5 = k

or

k = 2.5

then we get an equation:

y=2.5 \cdot xz

We have to find x when y = 165 and z = 11.

then;

165 = 2.5 \cdot x \cdot 11

⇒165 = 27.5x

Divide both sides by 27.5 we have;

6 = x

or

x = 6

Therefore, the value of k = 2.5  and value of x is 6 when  y = 165 and z = 11.

What is the solution to 3/(2x+1) = 9/3x?
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Solution x = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

3 / (2x+1) = 9 / 3x

Cross multiply

3(3x) = 9(2x + 1)

Distributive property

9x = 18x + 9

Subtract 18x from both sides

-9x = 9

Divide both sides by -9

x = -1

zaharov [31]

Answer:

3x + 5y - 4 = 0 \\ 3x + 5y = 4 \\ 5y = 4 - 3x \\ y =  \frac{4}{5}  -  \frac{3}{5} x \\ y = mx + c \\ slope = m =  \frac{ - 3}{5}  \\ y \: intersept = c =  \frac{4}{5}  \\ thank \: you
