If an equation is a direct variation, then there is always something added or subtracted from the x term

Mathematics

Answer:

The given statement is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given statement:

"If an equation is a direct variation, then there is always something added or subtracted from the x term."

Consider 2 variables 'x' and 'y' such that 'y' varies directly with 'x'. Therefore, if two variables have direct variation, then they are related as:

y=kx, where, 'k' is a constant of proportionality.

Now, in the above relation, the variable 'x' is multiplied by 'k' but nothing is added or subtracted from the 'x' term.

If something is added to the 'x' term, then the relation is a linear variation and not a direct variation.

Thus, the given statement is FALSE.

Crank

Answer: 2%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the event of having defective steering and B be the vent of having defective brake linings.

Given: P(A)  = 0.03  P(B) = 0.05

P(neither A nor B ) = 0.94

Using formula: P(either A nor B) = 1- P(neither A nor B )

= 1-0.94

i.e.  P(either A nor B) =0.06

Using formula:P(A and B) = P(A)+P(B)-P(either A or B)

P(A and B) =0.03+0.05-0.06

= 0.02

Hence, the percentage of the trucks have both defects = 2%

Which descriptions can describe more than one triangle? Select two options.
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

angle measurements of 35, 35, and 110°

angle measurements of 40°, 60°, and 80°

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The length sides of a triangle must satisfy the Triangle Inequality Theorem and the sum of their interior angles must be equal to 180 degrees

Remember that

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent

That means, I can have more than one triangle with the same internal angles

so

<u><em>Verify each description</em></u>

case 1) side lengths of 6 ft, 8 ft, and 10 ft

Remember that

The <u><em>Triangle Inequality Theorem</em></u> states that the sum of any 2 sides of a triangle must be greater than the measure of the third side

so

Applying the triangle inequality theorem

1) 6+8 > 10 ---> is true

2) 6+10 > 8 ---> is true

3) 8+10 > 6 ---> is true

therefore

The description describe only one triangle

case 2) angle measurements of 35, 35, and 110°

The sum of the interior angles is equal to 180 degrees

therefore

The description can describe more than one triangle, by similar triangles

case 3) angle measurements of 30°, 40, and 50°

The sum of the interior angles is not 180 degrees

therefore

The description is not a triangle

case 4) angle measurements of 40°, 60°, and 80°

The sum of the interior angles is equal to 180 degrees

therefore

The description can describe more than one triangle, by similar triangles

case 5) side lengths of 4 cm, 6 cm, and 9 cm

Remember that

The <u><em>Triangle Inequality Theorem</em></u> states that the sum of any 2 sides of a triangle must be greater than the measure of the third side

so

Applying the triangle inequality theorem

1) 4+6 > 9 ---> is true

2) 4+9 > 6 ---> is true

3) 6+9 > 4 ---> is true

therefore

The description describe only one triangle

Zak buys 6 gallons of fruit punch. He has
sesenic [268]
$8.70 is the total cost without the coupons. He gets 6 gallons. He gets $0.55 off per gallon.

To find the total price Zak got off, multiply 6 and $0.55. 6 x $0.55 = $3.30, so he got $3.30 off.

To find the total price. Add the total cost without the coupons + the amount the coupons saved him.
$8.70 + $3.30 = $12

To find the price per one gallon, divide the total price / number of gallons

$12/6 = $2. The regular price is $2 a gallon
