Answer:

2.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since y is directly proportional to x,

<h3>y = kx.</h3><h3>=> 40=k X 4</h3><h3>=> k=10</h3><h3>So y=10x</h3><h3>If we put y=23 in the above equation,</h3><h3>x=2.3</h3><h3 /><h3>or </h3><h3 /><h3>40:4 = 23:x</h3><h3>=>x=2.3</h3>

The ratio of students in Class X to Class Y is 2 : 5. There are 24 more students in Class Y than Class X. How many students must
Natalka [10]

Answer: 12 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X and Y stand for the number of students in each respective class.

We know:

X/Y = 2/5, and

Y = X+24

We want to find the number of students, x, that when transferred from Y to X, will make the classes equal in size. We can express this as:

(Y-x)/(X+x) = 1

---

We can rearrange X/Y = 2/5 to:

X = 2Y/5

The use this value of X in the second equation:

Y = X+24

Y =2Y/5+24

5Y = 2Y + 120

3Y = 120

Y = 40

Since Y = X+24

40 = X + 24

X = 16

--

Now we want x, the number of students transferring from Class Y to Class X, to be a value such that X = Y:

(Y-x)=(X+x)

(40-x)=(16+x)

24 = 2x

x = 12

12 students must transfer to the more difficult, very early morning, class.

The equation for the horizontal line that contains the point E(3, –4)?
Effectus [21]
The slope of a  horizontal line will have a value equal to 0: 
m=0
Point-slope form of a line: we need a point (x₀,y₀) and the slope "m".
y-y₀=m(x-x₀)

We have a point ( E(3,-4) ) and the slope of this line (m=0); therefore:y
y+4=0(x-3=
y+4=0
y=-4

Answer: the equation for the horizontal line that contains the point E, would be:
y=-4
