Answer:

y = 60 when x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct variation is

y = kx

15 = k3

Divide by 3

15/3 = k

5 =k

y = 5x

Let x = 12

y = 5*12

y = 60

Is the inequality true or false?<br><br> 8 + (2 x 4) ≥ 2^4<br><br> (^ - means exponent)

Lelu [443]

No, it is not true
8+(2x4)= 512
2^4 = 16

512 is greater than 16 but is not equal

What is the area of a rectangle with vertices at (0, −4) , (−1, −3) , (2, 0) , and (3, −1) ? Enter your answer in the box

Bad White [126]

We are given vertices of a rectangle (0, −4) , (−1, −3) , (2, 0) , and (3, −1).

Length is the distance between (0, −4) and (−1, −3) points.

Width is distance between (−1, −3) and (2, 0) points.

<u>Computing length:</u>

$\mathrm{Compute\:the\:distance\:between\:}\left(x_1,\:y_1\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right):\quad \sqrt{\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2}$

$=\sqrt{\left(-1-0\right)^2+\left(-3-\left(-4\right)\right)^2}$

$=\sqrt{2}$

<u>Computing Width :</u>

$\mathrm{The\:distance\:between\:}\left(-1,\:-3\right)\mathrm{\:and\:}\left(2,\:0\right)\mathrm{\:is\:}$

$=\sqrt{\left(2-\left(-1\right)\right)^2+\left(0-\left(-3\right)\right)^2}$

$=3\sqrt{2}$

<h3>Area of the rectangle = Length × Width </h3>

= $\sqrt{2} \times 3\sqrt{2} = 3 \times 2 = 6 \ squares \ units.$ .
