Your question is quite incomplete: who's k?

Anyway, I'm assuming that this is one of those question about variation. If x and y are in proportion, we have

$y=kx \implies k=\dfrac{y}{x}=\dfrac{5.25}{14}=0.375$

If x and y are in inverse proportion, we have

$y=\dfrac{k}{x} \implies k=xy=5.25\cdot 14=73.5$

5x+8y=-12 3x+5y=-7 what is the solution

Burka [1]

Answer:

$5x + 8y = - 12 - - - (a) \\ 3x + 5y = - 7 - - - (b) \\ 3\times (a) - 5 \times (b) : \\ = > 0x - y = - 1 \\ y = 1 \\ 3x + 5 = - 7 \\ 3x = - 12 \\ x = 4 \\ { \boxed{x = - 4}} \\ { \boxed{y = 1}}$

Arlene makes a necklace using 14 purple beads for every 6 silver beads. The necklace contains 18 beads. How many of each color b

Margaret [11]

Answer:

5.4 numbers of purple beads and 12.6 numbers of silver beads.

Step-by-step explanation:

Arlene makes a necklace using 14 purple beads for every 6 silver beads. So, she uses purple and silver beads in the ratio 14 : 6 = 7 : 3.

Now, the necklace contains 18 beads, then in the ratio 7 : 3, there will be $(18 \times \frac{3}{3 + 7}) = 5.4$ numbers of purple beads and (18 - 5.4) = 12.6 numbers of silver beads. (Answer)
