Answer:

C. w = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for w:

w - 2 = -3

Add 2 to both sides:

w + (2 - 2) = 2 - 3

2 - 2 = 0:

w = 2 - 3

2 - 3 = -1:

If y varies jointly as x and the cube of z and y=16 when x=4 and z=2 then y=0.5 when x=-8 and z=-3?

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer: F (False)

Step-by-step explanation:

Jointly variation has the following form:

y=kxz

Where k is a constant of propotionality.

Substitute values:

If y=16, x=4 and z=2, then k is:

$16=k(4)(2)^{3}\\k=1/2$

If x=-8 and z=-3 the the value of y is:

$y=(1/2)(-8)(-3)^{3}\\y=-108$

Then the answer is FALSE.
