Does the data in the table represent a direct variation or an inverse variation write an equation to model the data in the table

Answer:

direct variation

Step-by-step explanation:

For direct variation k = \frac{y}{x} ← k is the constant of variation

For inverse variation k = yx

Expressing the data as ordered pairs

(6, 9), (8, 12), (12, 18), (20, 30)

k = \frac{9}{6} = \frac{12}{8} = \frac{18}{12} = \frac{30}{20} = \frac{3}{2} = 1.5 ← indicating direct variation

Equation is

y = kx = 1.5x

-10 + 15xy = 20 Direct and inverse variation. constant of variation (k)​
lozanna [386]

Answer:

This is an inverse variation, and the constant of variation is k = 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct variation is something like:

y = k*x

Where k is the constant of variation.

So as x increases also increases y.

Inverse variation is something like:

y = k/x

k is the constant of variation.

In this case, if x increases, y decreases.

Now let's look at the equation:

-10 + 15*x*y = 20

Let's isolate y in one side of the equation:

15*x*y = 20 + 10 = 30

15*x*y = 30

y = 30/(15*x) = (30/15)/x = 2/x

y = 2/x

Then we can conclude that this is an inverse variation, with a constant of variation equal to 2.

Find the value of 5x - 2y+ 3z when x = 7 , y = 11 and z = -1
Oksanka [162]
By replacing you get:

5*7-2*11+3*(-1) = 35-22-3= 10

so the answer is 10.

Explain why y +1 = 1.2(x+2) and y-5= 1.2(x – 3) represent the same line, despite having
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

You can manipulate both equations into y = mx + b format and end up with the same result of y = 1.2x + 1.4

Step-by-step explanation:

y + 1 = 1.2(x + 2)

y = 1.2x + 2.4 - 1

y = 1.2x + 1.4

y - 5 = 1.2(x - 3)

y = 1.2x - 3.6 + 5

y = 1.2x + 1.4

So essentially, they're the same equation but in different forms.

What equation results from completing of the square and then factoring? X^2+4x=5
andre [41]

Answer:

(x-1)(x+5)=0

x=1; x=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

x²+4x=5

x²+4x+2²=5+2²

(x+2)²=3²

(x+2)²-3²=0

(x+2-3)(x+2+3)=0

(x-1)(x+5)=0

(x-1)=0 ; x=1

(x+5)=0;  x= - 5
