Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(x-7)=16

-2x +14=16 You distribute

If the value of y varies directly with x when y=50, x=4. What is the value of y when x=2
den301095 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation for a direct variation is y = k*x

So your first step (usually) is to find k

y = k x

when x = 4

then y = 50

  • y = k*x
  • 50 = k * 4              Divide by 4
  • 50 / 4 = k*4/4
  • 12.5 = k

Now you can find the value of y when x = 2

  • y = k*x
  • k = 12.5
  • x = 2
  • y = ?

y = 12.5 * 2

y = 25

Points F,G, and H are collinear such that FG:FH=2/3.If a directed line segment begins at F(-3,2) and ends at H (-3,7), find the
Nana76 [90]
We consider the x- and y-coordinates separately. Let the coordinates of G be (x, y). Now considering the x-coordinates:
FG/FH = (x - (-3)) / (-3 - (-3)) = 2/3
x + 3 = (2/3)(6)
x = 1
For the y-coordinates:
FG/FH = (y - 2) / (7 - 2) = 2/3
y - 2 = (2/3)(5)
y = 16/3
Therefore the coordinates of G are (1, 16/3).

A play has tickets available for 8 orchestra seats and 12 balcony seats. The next person to buy a ticket will be randomly assign
qaws [65]

The probability that the next person will be assigned an orchestra seats is 2/5.

<h3>What is Probability?</h3>

Probability can be defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes of an event.

Here, Available Orchestra seats = 8

            Balcony seats = 12

      Total available seats = 12 + 8 = 20

  Probability = Favorable Outcome / Total Outcome

  Probability of getting orchestra ticket = 8/20

                                                                 = 2/5

Thus, the probability that the next person will be assigned an orchestra seats is 2/5.
