If x varies directly as y, and x = 48 when y = 16, find x when y = 5.

1 answer:

4 0

X directly varies with y which means as x increases, y also increases. In this case, we represent a constant of proportionality of k.

Applying laws of <span> proportionality,

x =k y
48 = k* 16
k = 3

when y is 5
x = k y
x = 3* 5
x = 15</span>

Approx - 10%

72 students signed up for canoeing + the 23 students who signed up for trekking + the 13 students who signed up for both = 108 students

there are 120 students total, so you have to subtract 120 - 108 = 12

Now to find the percentage, you have to divide the number of students who didn't sign up for either, by the total

which is .1 = 10/100 = 10%

<h3>I'll teach you how to find the period of f(x)=sin(x)</h3>

-------------------------------------------------------

A period of a sin is is the length of one cycle.

The original period of the sine curve is 2π.

If x is multiplied by a constant that can change the answer of the period.

The period of the basic sine function f(x) = sin(x) is 2π.

Your Answer Is 2π.
