Solve the equation for x. 1 3 (6x − 9) = −33
KIM [24]

Answer:

<u>x = 1.07</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

13 ( 6x - 9) = -33

78x  - 117 = -33            ( opening brackets and multiplying )

78x  = 84                     ( - 117 taken to the other side makes it positive)

  x  =  84 / 78

  x  =  <u>1.07</u>

Suppose y varies directly with x, and y = 15 when x = 3. What is y when x = 12?
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

y = 60 when x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct variation is

y = kx

15 = k3

Divide by 3

15/3 = k

5 =k

y = 5x

Let x = 12

y = 5*12

y = 60

Find the equation of the line through the point (2, 5) that cuts off the least area from the first quadrant. Give your answer us
Amanda [17]

The equation of the line would be

y = mx+b 

where m is the slope, b is the y intercept. 

<span>The line will form a triangular region in the first quadrant. Its area would be 1/2 base times height. The height is the y intercept and the base is y intercept divided by slope. Therefore,</span>

A = b^2/2m

At point (2,5)

5 = 2m+b

Substitute that in the area

A = b^2/5-b to find the least area, differentiate the area with respect to the height and equate it to 0 

dA/db = 0

<span>find b and use that to find m. Then, you can have the equation of the line.</span>
