X+x-24=180
2x-24=180
2x=204
x=102
x-24=the smaller angle
102-24=the smaller angle
78=the smaller angle

Hope this helps :)

Determine whether y varies directly with x. If so, find the constant of variation and write the equation.

12345 [234]

ANSWER

$yes \: \: k = \frac{1}{3} \: \: \: y = \frac{1}{3} x$

EXPLANATION

The given line passes through the origin, hence it has equation of the form,

$y = kx$

Therefore y varies directly as x.

The line passes through the point (3,1)

This implies that,

$1= k(3)$

$k= \frac{1}{3}$

Hence the constant of variation is

$\frac{1}{3}$

The equation is

$y = \frac{1}{3} x$

Help for number 4 part a and part b

djyliett [7]

Part A: 7/10 because .7 represents 70/100 of a whole, or 7/10.

Part B: I think 1 and 89/100 because 89/100 represents that fraction

These are my answers, so I may be wrong.

Hope I helped, and good luck!
