Answer:
The phrase “ y varies directly as x” or “ y is directly proportional to x” means that as x gets bigger, so does y, and as x gets smaller, so does y. That concept can be translated in two ways. for some constant k. The k is called the constant of proportionality. Therefore a chance of probability is a binary table.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: The answer is A. Hope this helps :)
Step-by-step explanation:
8 < 4 (x + 1) Use the Distributive Property
8 < 4x + 4 Subtract 4 from both sides
4 < 4x Divide both sides by 4
1 < x
392 / 500 double and take one decimal place to see percentage
52/500
56/500 e.g. 56*2 = 112 now take 1 decimal so it is 11.2%
now divide each by 20
Answer:
- 525 = (w+4)(w)
- 21 ft by 25 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let w represent the width of the floor. Then the length of the floor is (w+4) and its area is ...
A = LW
525 = (w+4)(w)
w^2 +4w -525 = 0
(w -21)(w +25) = 0 . . . . factor the above
Solutions are ...
w = 21, w = -25
We are interested in the positive solution: w = 21.
The floor is 21 feet wide and 25 feet long.

<em>Alternate solution</em>
Sometimes, when the factors aren't obvious, it works well to write an equation for the average of the dimensions. Here, we can represent that with x, and use (x-2) for the width, and (x+2) for the length. Then we have ...
525 = (x-2)(x+2) = x^2 -4
529 = x^2
√529 = 23 = x
Then w=23 -2 = 21, and the length is w+4 = 25.
