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:

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.

The figure shows triangle DEF and line segment BC, which is parallel to EF: Triangle DEF has a point B on side DE and point C on

Svetlanka [38]

Part A:
-Yes because the are have the same angles and are the same shape.

Part B:
-Line segment BC corresponda to line segment EF.

Part C:
-Angle D corresponds with angle F. They are on the same line.

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-4,-4) and (-4,9)? Write answer in simplest form and explain how y

Ira Lisetskai [31]

There is no slope, it’s undefined. you get this by doing 9-(-4)/-4-(-4). this comes out to 13/0, and anything over zero is undefined. hope this helped

On a recent test, Ahmed knew many of the answers, but there were four questions he was unsure of. In each of the four questions,

Answer:

It is impossible to simulate this with a random number generator without knowing what the correct answer choices were

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Questions = 4$

$Options = 5$

Required

How can he select the right answer

Using randint will only generate a random number which could or could not be the answer to the question.

This is so because each of the 5 options for the question has the same probability of 1/5. So, using randint will only generate a random number. This generated random number has 1/5 chance of being the answer and 4/5 of not being the answer to the question.

In a nutshell, he can not make use of a simulator to select the answer to the questions in this scenario, unless he knows the solution.

<em>Hence (a) answers the question.</em>

I think in order to solve this, you would need to add up the fractions that they used. So it would be,

$\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{3}{8}+\frac{3}{8}+\frac{5}{8}+\frac{5}{8}+\frac{5}{8}+\frac{7}{8}$ Transform the Expressions
