Answer: option d.

Step-by-step explanation:

If <em>y </em>varies directly as <em>x</em> and <em>z</em>, the form of the equation is:

y=kxz

Where<em> k</em> is the constant of variation.

If y=4 when x=6 and z=1 then substitute these values into the expression and solve for <em>k:</em>

4=k(6)(1)\\4=6k\\k=\frac{4}{6}\\\\k=\frac{2}{3}

<em> </em>Substitute the value of <em>k</em>  into the expression. Then, the equation is:

y=\frac{2}{3}xz

To find the value of <em>y </em>when x=7 and z=4, you must substute these values into the equation. Therefore you obtain:

y=k=\frac{2}{3}(7)(4)

y(7,4)=\frac{56}{3}

Answer:

Choice D is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given that

If y varies directly as x and z,

y ∝ xz

y  = kxz                          eq(1)  

where k is constant of variation.

As given that y = 4 when x = 6 and z = 1

4  = k(6)(1)

4 = k(6)

4 = 6k

k = 4/6

k = 2/3

Putting the value of k in eq(1), we have

y = 2/3xz

Now, we have to find the value of y when x = 7 and z  = 4

y = 2/3(7)(4)

y = 56/3

Hence, Choice D is correct.

Find the measure of angle 4 AND...… angle 7
zaharov [31]

Answer:

<4 = 126

<7 = 55

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

There are only 2 answers to this question. <4 has one of them and <7 has the other one. <7 is acute. <2 is obtuse.

Givens

<2 = 55 degrees

Solution

<4 is the supplement of <2

Therefore <4 + <2 = 180                     A straight line has an angle of 180°

<4 + 55 = 180

<4 = 180 - 55

<4 = 125

So <7 is either 55 or 125. Since <7 is acute, it is 55 degrees but we have another way of proving it.

<4 + <6 = 180 degrees            Interior angles on the same side of the transversal are supplementary

125 + <6 = 180

<6 = 180 - 125

<6 = 55

<7 =<6                                    Vertically opposite angles are equal.

<7 = 55 degrees.

The function f(x)=70n -400 models the profit of the instructor of a guitar class per month, where n is the number of students en
suter [353]
Given:
f(x) = 70n - 400   : equation for monthly profit.
n = number of students enrolled in the guitar class.

70 refers to the amount charged per student.
400 is the fixed expense made by the instructor.

For the instructor to have a profit, the product of 70n must be more than 400.

400/70 = 5.7 or 6

There must be at least 6 students enrolled in class for the instructor to generate profit.

f(x) = 70(6) - 400 = 420 - 400 = 20

1000 = 70n - 400
1000 + 400 = 70n
1400 = 70n
1400/70 = n
20 = n

There must be 20 students enrolled in class for the instructor to earn 1000 in profit.

1000 = 70(20) - 400
1000 = 1400 - 400
1000 = 1000
