<h3>Answers:</h3>

Variation Constant: k = 7/6

y = 245/6 when x = 7 and z = 5

====================================

Explanation:

"y varies jointly as x and z" means that y = kxz

We have (x,y,z) = (4,14,3) as one triple, so,

y = kxz

14 = k*4*3

14 = 12k

12k = 14

k = 14/12

k = 7/6 is the variation constant

The equation goes from y = kxz to y = (7/6)xz

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

Plug in x = 7 and z = 5 to find y

y = (7/6)xz

y = (7/6)*7*5

y = (7/6)*(7/1)*(5/1)

y = (7*7*5)/(6*1*1)

y = 245/6

Answer:

11x+y = -28

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two points so we can find the slope

m = (y2-y2)/(x2-x1)

   = (-6-5)/ (-2--3)

   = -11(-2+3)

   = -11/1

The slope is -11

We can use point slope to make an equation

y-y1 = m (x-x1)

y-5 = -11(x--3)

y -5 = -11(x+3)

Distribute

y-5 = -11x-33

Add 5 to each side

y-5+5 = -11x-33+5

y = -11x-28

Add 11x to each side

11x+y = -11x+11x-28

11x+y = -28

This is the standard form of a line

Answer:

64/3 tablespoons of sugar for 32 ounces of water

Step-by-step explanation:

In these kinds of questions it is nice to find how muc of 1 thing there is for every ONE of another.  so 8 tablespoons of sugar for 12 ouncesof water you can divide both sides by 8 or 12.

Dividing it by 8 gets 8/8 = 1 tablespoon of sugar for 12/8 = 1.5 ounces of water.

Dividing by 12 gets 8/12 = 2/3 tablespoon of sugar for 12/12 = 1 ounce of water.

Now you can take one or the other and multiply it to fit whichever you want to fit a ratio.

It asks what happens if you use 32 ounces of water, so lets use the ratio where we hae 1 ounce, then multiply everything by 32.

2/3 tablespoon of sugar for 1 ounce of water

Multiply by 32 and you get 32*(2/3) = 64/3 tablespoons of sugar for 32 ounces of water

WHY must the same operation be performed on both sides of an equation? ​
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:When you are given a problem, the two sides are equal, so they are equally weighted. As long as you do the same thing on both sides, they remain the same weight. The only way that one side can become "more weight" on a side is if you make a math mistake, and thus the answer would not satisfy the original equation

Step-by-step explanation:looked it up... have a good day!

Which equation represents a circle that contains the point (-5,-3) and has a center at (-2,1)
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

The equation of circle is:

Solution:

The general form of equation is given as:

Where, "r" is radius of circle and (a, b) is center of circle

Given that center at (-2, 1)

a = -2 and b = 1

Substitute (a , b) = (-2, 1) and (x, y) = (-5, -3) in general equation

Substitute r = 5 and (a, b) = (-2, 1) in general equation

Thus the equation of circle is found
