y = - 3

Since y varies directly as x then

y = kx ← ( k is the constant of variation )

to find k use y = - 1 when x = 3

k = \frac{y}{x} = \frac{-1}{3} = - \frac{1}{3}

hence y = - \frac{1}{3} x

when x = 9, then

y = - \frac{1}{3} × 9 = - 3

Answer:

22

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the inequality  (20 + 0.5x) + 0.15(20 + 0.5x)   ≤ $62.10 for x:

20 + .5x + 3 + 0.75x ≤ 62.10

Combining the x terms, we get:

20 + 3 + 1.25x ≤ 62.10.

Combining the constants on the left:

23 + 1.75x ≤ 62.10

Combining the constants:

1.75x = 39.10

Solving for x:  39.10/1.75 = 22.34

Thus, the max number of whole pages she can have in her book is 22.

How many timnes does 43 go into 93
Charra [1.4K]

43 can fit into 93 two whole times.

After that, there's only room for another 7 inside the 93,
so there's no way to stuff the whole 43 in there again.

Solve -44-7k=12+k answer quick please
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

k = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for k:

-7 k - 44 = k + 12

Subtract k from both sides:

(-7 k - k) - 44 = (k - k) + 12

-7 k - k = -8 k:

-8 k - 44 = (k - k) + 12

k - k = 0:

-8 k - 44 = 12

Add 44 to both sides:

(44 - 44) - 8 k = 44 + 12

44 - 44 = 0:

-8 k = 12 + 44

12 + 44 = 56:

-8 k = 56

Divide both sides of -8 k = 56 by -8:

(-8 k)/(-8) = 56/(-8)

(-8)/(-8) = 1:

k = 56/(-8)

The gcd of 56 and -8 is 8, so 56/(-8) = (8×7)/(8 (-1)) = 8/8×7/(-1) = 7/(-1):

k = 7/(-1)

Multiply numerator and denominator of 7/(-1) by -1:

Answer: k = -7
