For each equation, determine whether it represents a direct variation, an inverse variation, or neither.

Direct variation is written in the form y = k * x or x = y * k. And, inverse variation is written in the form y = k/x or x = y/k.

For the first problem, if we isolated the y, we would get:

4y = 3x - 1

y = (3/4)x - 1/4

This is written as y = mx + b, which isn’t the form of direct or inverse variation, so the answer is NEITHER.

For the second equation, we could divide by 2 on both sides to isolate x and see if it is in the correct form:

x = 4/y

This is inverse form, so the second question is INVERSE with a constant of variation as 4.

Convert x2 + y2 -4x = 0 to polar form.
Bingel [31]

Answer:

r(r-4\cos \theta)=0

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following equation:

x^2 + y^2 -4x = 0

We have to convert it into polar form.

We put

x = r \cos \theta\\y = r\sin \theta

Putting values, we get:

x^2 + y^2 -4x = 0\\(r\cos \theta)^2 + (r\sin \theta)^2 - 4(r\cos \theta) = 0\\r^2(\cos^2 \theta + \sin^2 \theta) - 4r\cos \theta = 0\\r^2 - 4r\cos \theta = 0\\r(r-4\cos \theta)=0

is the required polar form.

A factory uses 1/6 of a barrel of raisins in each batch of granola bars. Yesterday, the factory used 1/2 of a barrel of raisins.
balu736 [363]

1/6 = 1 batch, 2/6 = 2 batches and so on

if the factory used 1/2, the factory used 3/6 of a barrel, which equals to 3 batches.

<em>hope it helps :)</em>
