\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{direct proportional variation}
\\\\
\textit{\underline{x} varies directly with \underline{y}}\qquad \qquad  x=ky\impliedby 
\begin{array}{llll}
k=constant\ of\\
\qquad  variation
\end{array}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\textit{we also know that }
\begin{cases}
x=3.5\\
y=14
\end{cases}\implies 3.5=k14\implies \cfrac{3.5}{14}=k
\\\\\\
\cfrac{1}{4}=k\qquad therefore\qquad \boxed{x=\cfrac{1}{4}y}
\\\\\\
\textit{when y = 18, what is \underline{x}?}\qquad x=\cfrac{1}{4}(18)

PLZ ANSWER! REALLY NEED HELP AND WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!! PLZZZZZ!!!
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) the slope-interception form of the given line is:

y=s*x+i, where s - the slope, i - interception;

according to the condition it is

y=1/8*x+i;

2) if to substitute the coordinates of the given point (-10;4) into the slope-interception form, then:

4=1/8* (-10)+i, ⇒ i=21/4;

the equation of the given line is:

y=1/8*x+21/4

3) according to the condition the given point with the coordinates (-6;w) belongs to the line. It means, it is possible to substitute its coordinates into the equation, then calculate the value of the 'w':

w=1/8*(-6)+21/4; ⇒ w=9/2.

Answer C. 9/2

Note: the suggested option is not the only.

1. Mr. Davis deposited $1,250 into an account. He made no additional deposits or withdrawals. Mr. Davis earned 4.25% annual simp
notsponge [240]

Answer:

At the end of 4 years, Mr Davis will have $1462.50 in his account

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple Interest SI = (Principal P × Rate R × Time T)/100

SI = (P × R × T)/100

P = $1250, R = 4.25%, T = 4 years

SI = ($1250 × 4.25 × 4)/100

SI = (21250)/100

SI = $212.50

The balance will therefore be

$1250 + $212.50 = $1462.50

Sweets are sold loose, or pre-packed in 120g bags. The 120g bags are £1 49 each The loose sweets are £0.89 for 100g By calculati
NNADVOKAT [17]

To find the better deal divide the price by the weight of each and compare:

1.49 / 120 = 0.012 per gram

0.89/ 100 = 0.0089 per gram

Buying loose is the better deal because the price per gram is smaller
