8 less than the product would be 2x - 8

But if you mean 8 is less than the product (an inequality), the expression would be 8 < 2x

Calculate the constant of variation if y varies directly as x.

timama [110]

You have not provided the complete question (value of y at a certain value of x), therefore, I cannot give u a specific final answer. However, I can explain how to solve this problem and you can apply on the numbers you have.

y varies directly with x means that as x increases, y also increases and vice versa.
This can be represented by the following equation:
y = kx
where k is the constant of proportionality.

Solving this for k, we would find that:
k = y/x

Examples:
If we are given that y = 4 at x = 2, then:
k = y/x = 4/2 = 2
If we are given that y = 1 at x = 3, then:
k = y/x = 1/3
In general, if we are given that y = a at x = b, then:
k = a/b

Hope this helps :)

Please help me in this question

charle [14.2K]

Number defective=4
number of non-defective=total-defective
=20-4
=16
the questions asked for 1 defective
so we choose only 1 defective from 4 defective items
4C1

and for 1 non-defective
we choose only 1 non-defective from 16 non-defective items
16C1

we choose 2 items from 20 items
so 20C2

answer:
probability= [(4C1) * (16C1)] /(20C2)
=32/95
