Answer:
3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the constant of proportionality between y/x you investigate the trend in values of x with corresponding values of y
For this case, when x =1, y=3.5
when x=2, y=7
Taking in case 1, y/x = 3.5/1 = 3.5
In case 2, y/x= 7/2 = 3.5
But you know that the constant of proportionality k is given by;
y=kx------------------------making k subject of formula
y/x=k
Hence in this case, your constant of proportionality is 3.5
We know that the sum of all angle measures in a trapezoid is 360* (* means degrees)
Therefore we can construct the equation
(X+28)+(x)+(4x-14)+(4x-14)= 360
Now add like terms
10x = 360
And divide by the coefficient of X (aka 10)
X= 36
you have a 58%(rounded) chance against picking a prime number at random
Let's eliminate x. To achieve this, mult. the 2nd equation by 2, obtaining
-8x + 2y = 10. Now add this result to the first equation:
8x-2y= -10
-8x + 2y = 10
---------------------
0
The two equations actually represent the same line. Without an x- or a y-value, we cannot solve for the value of the other variable. There are infinitely many solutions.
