Answer:

The constant of variation is $1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Point 1 (1,2)

Point 2 (5,8)

Required

Constant of Variation

Though the graph would have assisted in answering the question; its unavailability doesn't mean the question cannot be solved.

Having said that,

the constant variation can be solved by calculating the gradient of the graph;

The gradient is often represented by m and is calculated as thus

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

Where

(x_1, y_1) = (1,2)\\(x_2, y_2) = (5,8)

By substituting values for x1,x2,y1 and y2; the gradient becomes

m = \frac{8 - 2}{5 - 1}

m = \frac{6}{4}

m = \frac{3}{2}

m = 1.50

Hence, the constant of variation is $1.50

Steve reaches into a bag with 5 marbles 3 yellow marbles and 2 green marbles and randomly selects one the he puts the marble bac
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

Independent

Step-by-step explanation:

The reliance of an event on the outcine of another event gives rise to a dependent event. For any two or more event, whereby the outcome of event A has no effect on the possible outcome of event B, then such scenario is termed as being Independent. In the scenario described above, the outcome oof Sam's pick does not depend on the outcine of Steve's pick. This is because, once Steve makes his selection, the marble is returned into the box before Sam makes his own selection.Therefore, no matter the color of marble picked by Steven, it will have no bearing on the outcome of Sam's pick.

Express into partial fractions 3x³ - 5x² - 3x - 40/( x² + 4)(x - 3)​
Fudgin [204]

First simplify the rational expression by dividing. The degree in the numerator has to be at least 1 less than the degree in the denominator before you can decompose into partial fractions.

(3<em>x</em>³ - 5<em>x</em>² - 3<em>x</em> - 40) / ((<em>x</em>² + 4) (<em>x</em> - 3)) = 3 + (4<em>x</em>² - 15<em>x</em> - 4) / ((<em>x</em>² + 4) (<em>x</em> - 3))

Now decompose the remainder term into partial fractions:

(4<em>x</em>² - 15<em>x</em> - 4) / ((<em>x</em>² + 4) (<em>x</em> - 3)) = (<em>ax</em> + <em>b</em>) / (<em>x</em>² + 4) + <em>c</em> / (<em>x</em> - 3)

Multiply both sides by the denominator on the left:

4<em>x</em>² - 15<em>x</em> - 4 = (<em>ax</em> + <em>b</em>) (<em>x</em> - 3) + <em>c</em> (<em>x</em>² + 4)

Expand the right side:

4<em>x</em>² - 15<em>x</em> - 4 = <em>ax</em>² + (<em>b</em> - 3<em>a</em>) <em>x</em> - 3<em>b</em> + <em>cx</em>² + 4<em>c</em>

4<em>x</em>² - 15<em>x</em> - 4 = (<em>a</em> + <em>c</em>) <em>x</em>² + (<em>b</em> - 3<em>a</em>) <em>x</em> - 3<em>b</em> + 4<em>c</em>

Then

<em>a</em> + <em>c</em> = 4

<em>b</em> - 3<em>a</em> = -15

-3<em>b</em> + 4<em>c</em> = -4

Solve this system to get

<em>a</em> = 5, <em>b</em> = 0, <em>c</em> = -1

We end up with

(4<em>x</em>² - 15<em>x</em> - 4) / ((<em>x</em>² + 4) (<em>x</em> - 3)) = 5<em>x</em> / (<em>x</em>² + 4) - 1 / (<em>x</em> - 3)

and so

(3<em>x</em>³ - 5<em>x</em>² - 3<em>x</em> - 40) / ((<em>x</em>² + 4) (<em>x</em> - 3))

= 3 + 5<em>x</em> / (<em>x</em>² + 4) - 1 / (<em>x</em> - 3)
