Suppose that y varies directly with x and y 12 when x--2. What is x when y -6?

Answer:

The ordered pair that satisfies this problem is (1, -6); x = 1 when y = -6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please, rewrite your question as follows:

"Suppose that y varies directly with x and y = 12 when x = -2. What is x when

y = -6?"  The " = " sign must be included.

The pertinent proportional relationship is y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality.

We must find k here.  Let y = 12 and x = -2.  Then 12 = k(-2), or k = -6.

Then the relationship is y = -6x.

Now let y = -6 and find x:      -6 = -6x, or x = 1.

The ordered pair that satisfies this problem is (1, -6)

Can somebody help me with this question
Alexus [3.1K]
We start with:

y=2x-15
y=5x

Now, we have a perfectly set-up variable we can get rid of: <em>y.</em>

But we need to make either the top or bottom equation negative, so for simplicity, let's make the bottom one negative.

y=2x-15
(-y)=(-5x)

Now simplify.

-3x-15=0

Add 3x on both sides.

3x=15

Divide by 3 on both sides.

x=5

Find the midpoint of the segment with the given endpoints (5,-9) and (-2,-2)
QveST [7]
Another way to solve this is to use the Midpoint Formula.  The midpoint of a segment joining points (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2) is

\left(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2} \right)

So the midpoint of your segment is

\left(\frac{5+(-2)}{2},\frac{-9+(-2)}{2}\right) = \left(\frac{3}{2},-\frac{11}{2} \right)

Perhaps it helps to see that the x-coordinate of the midpoint is just the average of the x-coordinates of the points.  Ditto for the y-coordinate of the midpoint; just average the y's.
