The sum of two numbers is 77. The greater number is 5 more than the smaller number. Which equation can be used to solve for the

smaller number?
x(x − 5) = 77

x(x + 5) = 77

x − (x + 5) = 77

x + (x + 5) = 77

We can write a system of equations.

x + y = 77
y = x + 5

Plug in x + 5 into the first equation:

x + y = 77

x + (x + 5) = 77

So this is our answer.

What is the variation constant for an inverse squared relationship where we know x = –4 and y = 3?
stich3 [128]
Let the constant be k.

For an inverse squared proportion the formula is y = k/x^2

Insert values of y and x into the formula.
3 = k/(-4)^2
3(-4)^2 = k
k = 3(16)
k = 48

Hope this helps. :)

Contact [7]
So,
a parallelogram is forming here

then, opposite angels are going to be equal

so,
y = (x+50)°


now,
as you know that sum of all angles of a quadrulateral equals 360°
so,

2 {(x+50)+(x-30)}=360°
(x+50)+(x-30) = 180°
2x + 20 = 180
2x = 160
x = 80°


therefore,

angle y = (x+50) = 80 +50 = 130°
and x = (x-30) = 80 - 30 = 50°

H_0: p=0.57\\H_a: p≠0.57.

(Two tailed test at 5% significance level)

Test statistic =1.42

Here since proportions we use Z test
