Answer:

Choice B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we have to find constant of variation.

y= kx         eq(1)

Given y= -96 and x= 24

put above values in eq(1)

-96=k(24)

dividing above equation by 24

-96/24=24k/24

-4=k

so eq(1) becomes y=-4x

Secondly, we have to find value of x when y=-164

-164=-4x

dividing by -4 by above equation.

-164/(-4)=-4x/(-4)

41=x

so, k=-4 and x=41.

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

30. You want to solve for k and use it with a different y-value.


... y = kx


... -96 = k·24


... -96/24 = k = -4


For y = -164, you have


... -164 = -4·x


... -164/-4 = x = 41


The coefficient of variation is -4, x is 41.

write the equation of the line that passes through the given points (0,-1) and (-5,-7) Simplify your answer
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

y = 6/5 x-1  slope intercept form

6x-5y = 5  standard form

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the points  (0,-1) and (-5,-7)

We can find the slope using

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

 = (-7--1)/(-5-0)

 = (-7+1)/(-5-0)

 = -6/-5

 = 6/5

We also have the y intercept ( when x=0)  It is -1

We can use the slope intercept form of the equation y = mx+b

y = 6/5 x-1

Depending on what you mean when you say simplify your answer

We can put it in standard form  ax+by = C

Multiply both sides by 5

5y =5* 6/5 x-1*5

5y = 6x-5

Subtract 6x from each side

-6x+5y = 6x-6x-5

-6x+5y = -5

Multiply by -1

6x-5y = 5

A car can travel 105 miles on 7 gallons of gas. How far can it travel on 9 gallons
Wewaii [24]

Find how far the car can travel on one gallon of gas, by dividing total miles by number of gallons:

105 miles / 7 gallons = 15 miles per gallon.


Now multiply that by the number of gallons to find total miles:

15 miles per gallon x 9 gallons = 135 total miles.
