Answer: The constant of variation value of 7.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given cost of 0.8 meter of a silk ribbon = $5.60.

Let us assume y be the total cost for x meter of a silk ribbon and k is the constant of variation.

So, we can set up an equation for proportion relationship:

y = k x.

Let us plug x=0.8 and y= 5.60, in above proportion relationship equation, we get

5.60 = k (0.8).

Dividing both sides by 0.8, we get

5.60/0.8 = k(0.8)/0.8

k =7.

Therefore, the constant of variation value of 7.

Regular hexagon FGHIJK shares a common center with square ABCD on a coordinate plane. AB || FG. Across which line can be combine

nlexa [21]

Answer: The answer is the yellow lines in the attached figure.

Step-by-step explanation: As shown in the attached figure, regular hexagon FGHIJK and square ABCD shares common centre on the co-ordinate plane and AB || FG.

We are to find the line across which the combined figure will reflect onto itself.

In the attached figure, we see two lines which are yellow in colour. We can easily detect that the figure will be reflected onto itself if these two lines acts as a mirror separately.

Hence these yellow lines are the required lines.

which is the equation of a line in point slope form that passes through the point 2,5 and has a slope of 1/2

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

Point slope form is

y-y1 = m(x-x1) where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is a point on the line

y - 2 = 4(x- -1)

y - 2 = 4(x+1)

slope intercept form

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = 4x+b

Substituting the point in

2 = 4(-1)+b

2 = -4+b

6 =b

y = 4x+6

standard form

Ax +by = c where A is a positive integer and b and c are integers

y = 4x+6

Subtract 4x from each side

-4x+y = 6

Multiply by -1

4x -y = 6
