Answer: 8</h3>
===========================================================
Explanation:
All direct variation equations are of the form y = kx, for some constant k.
We know that y = -8 and x = 4 pair up together. Let's use these two values to find k
y = kx
-8 = k*4
-8/4 = k
-2 = k
k = -2
Therefore, we go from y = kx to y = -2x
We can then find y when x = -4
y = -2x
y = -2*(-4)
y = 8
The cups of water should be:
2 x 12 = 24 ( cups of water )
The answer is D. (hope this helps :)
Since this is a right triangle, we know we have to use the Pythagorean Theorem: A² + B² = C² , where A and B = the legs of the triangle (which are shorter than the hypotenuse) and C = the hypotenuse.
In this isosceles triangle, A = B (because the legs are the same size) and C is 10cm longer than A and B.
Thus we get the following,
A = x
B = x
C = x + 10
We simply plug in these variables into the equation and solve for x:
x² + x² = (x+10)²
2x² = x² + 20x + 100
x² - 20x - 100 = 0
We solve for x by completing the square:
(x² - 20x + 100) - 100 = 100
(x-10)² -100 = 100
(x-10)² = 200
x - 10 = √(200)
x - 10 = 10 √2
x = 10 + 10√2 = 24
Finally,
A ≈ 24 (or 10 + 10√2)
B ≈ 24 (or 10 + 10√2)
C ≈ 24 + 10 ≈ 34 (or 10 + 10√2 + 10 = 20 + 10√2)
