Answer: Choice A) 8

------------------------------------------------------------------

If you plot all of the points, you'll see they all fall on the same straight line. The slope of this line is m = -4
Each time x increases by 1, y decreases by 4

Going in reverse, if we decrease x by 1, then we increase y by 4
So the pair (x,y) = (1,4) shown in row 2 will lead to (0,8) if we use the trick of increasing y by 4 when decreasing x by 1.

Another way to see this is to use m = -4 with (x,y) = (1,4) and you'll find that b = 8. So the equation of this line is y = -4x+8

Or you can use a graphical method to find the y intercept

Either way, the answer is 8. This is where the graph crosses the y axis.

Which equation is a function of x? x = 5 x = y squared 9 x squared = y x squared = y squared 16
natita [175]

The equation which is a function of x is x²=y.

Given an equation that is a function of x.

A function may be a relation between a collection of inputs and a collection of permissible outputs with the property that every input is said to precisely one output.

If we input a value of x then we get the output f(x) = y, which is the function of x.

We are given four options out of which we are to pick the one which may be a function of 'x'.

The first option is x=5 in which no term of y is included and its a constant. So, option 1 is not correct.

The second option is x=y²+9 in which y contains a power 2. So, option 2 is not correct.

The third option is x²=y in which y contains power 1. So, option 3 is correct.

The fourth option is x²=y²+16 in which y contains a power 2. So, option 3 is not correct.

Hence, the equation which is a function of x is x²=y.

PLEASE HELP SOMEONE!!!

Answer:

y = -2x

Step-by-step explanation:

For direct variation:  y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality.

Given that Y equals -12 when x equals 6, we have -12 = k(6).  Solve this for k by dividing both sides by 6:

k = -12/6 => k = -2

Then the "direct variation equation" here is y = -2x.
