Answer:

If x varies directly as y, then x=ky. y=5 and x=2.5 are substituted into x=ky to find k.

2.5=5k

k=2.5/5

k=5.

K =5 is substituted in x=ky to find y where x is 10.

x=5y

10=5y

y=10/2

y=2

Answer:  The required value of y is 20.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that y is 5 when x is 2.5 and y varies directly with x.

We are to find the value of y when x is 10.

According to the given information, we can write

y\propto x\\\\\Rightarrow y=kx~~~~~~~~~~[\textup{where k is the constant of proportionality}]

When y = 5 and x = 2.5, then we have

5=k\times2.5\\\\\Rightarrow k=\dfrac{5}{2.5}\\\\\Rightarrow k=2.

So, we get

y=2x.

Therefore, when x = 10, then the value of y is

y=2\times10=20.

Thus, the required value of y is 20.

This equation shows how the time required to ring up a customer is related to the number of items being purchased. t = 4p + 20 T
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

6 items are being purchased

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that  variable p represents the number of items being purchased, and the variable t represents the time required to ring up the customer, If it takes 44 seconds to ring up a customer then the number of items being purchased may be computed by substituting the value of t into the given equation

t = 4p + 20.

Using t = 44

44 = 4p + 20

collect like terms or subtract 20 from both sides

44 - 20 = 4p

24 = 4p

Divide both sides by 4

24/4 = p

p = 6

A number a decreased by 7 is 2.
umka21 [38]

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first convert this to numbers. When a number is decreased by a certain amount, that is the same as saying that something is subtracted from it. Therefore:

a-7=2

Add 7 to both sides:

a-7+7=2+7

a=9

Hope this helps!
