If y varies directly as x and y=3 when x=2 find y when x=8​

Answer:

y = 12 when x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a case of direct variation, and the pertinent equation is y = kx.

Substituting 2 for x and 3 for y, we get:  3 = 2k.  Then k = 3/2  is the constant of proportionality.

Then y = (3/2)x.

When x = 8, y = (3/2)(8) = 12

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

x=2 was multiplied by 4 to get to x=8 so you multiply y=3 by 4 to make it y=12

in germany, VAT is at 19% Jeremy buys a calculator in germny for €58.31 This price includes VAT Find the amount of VAT paid by
Len [333]

We can use this equation to solve this problem:

<span>t=p+<span>(p⋅r)</span></span>

Where:

t is the total price paid: 58.31 for this problem

p is the price before taxes: What we are solving for in this problem.

r is the tax or VAT rate: 19% for this problem. "Percent" or "%" means "out of 100" or "per 100", Therefore 19% can be written as <span>19100</span> or 0.19.

Substituting and solving for p gives:

<span>58.31=p+<span>(p⋅0.19)</span></span>

<span>58.31=1p+0.19p</span>

<span>58.31=<span>(1+0.19)</span>p</span>

<span>58.31=1.19p</span>

<span><span>58.311.19</span>=<span><span>1.19p</span>1.19</span></span>

<span>49=<span><span>1.19p</span>1.19</span></span>

<span>49=p</span>

<span>p=49</span>

Now, we can find how much the VAT was by taking 19% of 49:

<span>19%×49=0.19×49=9.31</span>

Another was to solve this is to subtract the price without the tax or VAT from the total price giving:

<span>58.31−49=<span>9.31</span></span>

What is the slope of the line shown?<br><br> -7/9<br> 9/7<br> 7/9<br> -9/7
SpyIntel [72]

To find slope, we must find the change in y values divided by the change in x values, also called the rise/run. This is modeled below:

Slope = m = (y1 - y2)/(x1-x2) = (6-(-3))/(1 - (-6)) = (6+3)/(1+6) = 9/7

We can check that this answer is correct by consulting the graph. The graph shows a positive correlation (means that the slope should be positive), and if you count the graph unit squares, you get that the graph moves up 9 squares and over 7 squares between the two points shown, letting us know we got the right answer.

Hope this helps!

What is the value of the digits 4 in the number 84,230
m_a_m_a [10]
<span>The value of 4 is 4,000 because it’s in the thousands (1,000) column. Therefore, 4 x 1,000 = 4,000. Each column has a different value. For example, 0 is in the ones (1) column, 3 is in the tens (10) column, 2 is in the hundreds (100) column, and 8 is in ten thousands (10,000) column.</span>

Please help me with this please and thank you
Alina [70]

Step-by-step explanation:

y = ax^n + bx^(n-1) ... + z

(0, 1) tells us that the constant term z = 1.

because x = 0 eliminates all other terms. and as the sum is 1, that means z = 1.

for the other pairs I strongly suspect

(-1, 3) : 2×(-1)² + 1 = 2×1 + 1 = 3

(-2, 9) : 2×(-2)² + 1 = 2×4 + 1 = 9

so, the fitting equation is

y = 2x² + 1
