So first we need to know this:
Two negative signs make a positive
Two positives make a positive
One positive and one negative makes a negative.
So we can turn the equation to -4 -44 - - 1
2 minuses make plus
-4 -44 +1 = -48 +1 = -47
The value of that expression is positive whenever 'x' is negative.
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
We have y ∝ x which is another way of saying y varies directly with x
We can rewrite the direct proportion relation y ∝ x as y = k.x where k is a constant - the constant of proportionality
So y = kx or x = y/k
using y and x values know, we can solve for k and then solve for any x given y
We have
y = 37.4 = k (17)
Therefore k = (37.4/17) = 2.2
To find x given y = 13.2, use the second equation
x = y/k = 13.2 / 2.2 = 6
I’m not sure if this is right but f(x) = 1/x + 3/2 ?
The width should be 100.8 inches since you multiply 42 × 2.4. Hope it helps.
