Answer:
x = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
X / 2 = 7
Multiply by 2 to isolate x.
x = 7 * 2
x = 14
"y varies directly as x" means y = kx
you do not know what k is yet, other than that it is some constant number.
Now plug in the given values, y=12 when x=4, in the equation
12 = 4k
=> k = 3
Now rewrite the equation with the k value you just found
y = 3k
Substitute 18 in place of x
y = 3(18)
y = 54
Let’s turn the mixed number into a fraction
3/2 x 1/2
Multiply across
3/4
Hope this helps!
Answer:
What do you mean?
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y = 
x - 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
y = - 
x ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = - , c = 0
Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is
= - 
= - 
= , then
y = x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (3, - 8) into the partial equation
- 8 = 4 + c ⇒ c = - 8 - 4 = - 12
y = x - 12 ← equation of perpendicular line
