If y varies directly as x, and y is 48 when x is 6, which expression can be used to find the value of y when c is 2?

Direct variation has the for y=kx  (inverse variation has the form y=k/x)

Since we are given a point we can solve for the constant of variation, k

48=6k so

k=8 so our equation is:

y=8x so

y(2)=8(2)

y(2)=16

So y=16 when x=2

Answer:

1. z = 128

2. x = 4.2

3. c = 10

4. w = 100

5. a = 95.2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Solve for z:

z/16 = 8

Multiply both sides of z/16 = 8 by 16:

(16 z)/16 = 16×8

(16 z)/16 = 16/16×z = z:

z = 16×8

16×8 = 128:

Answer:  z = 128

2. Solve for x:

3.5 x = 14.7

Divide both sides of 3.5 x = 14.7 by 3.5:

(3.5 x)/3.5 = 14.7/3.5

3.5/3.5 = 1:

x = 14.7/3.5

14.7/3.5 = 4.2:

Answer:  x = 4.2

____________________________________________

3. Solve for c:

32 = 3.2 c

32 = 3.2 c is equivalent to 3.2 c = 32:

3.2 c = 32

Divide both sides of 3.2 c = 32 by 3.2:

(3.2 c)/3.2 = 32/3.2

3.2/3.2 = 1:

c = 32/3.2

32/3.2 = 10:

Answer:  c = 10

__________________________________________________

4. Solve for w:

(2 w)/5 = 40

Multiply both sides of (2 w)/5 = 40 by 5/2:

(5×2 w)/(2×5) = 5/2×40

5/2×2/5 = (5×2)/(2×5):

(5×2)/(2×5) w = 5/2×40

5/2×40 = (5×40)/2:

(5×2 w)/(2×5) = (5×40)/2

(5×2 w)/(2×5) = (2×5)/(2×5)×w = w:

w = (5×40)/2

2 | 2 | 0

| 4 | 0

- | 4 |  

| | 0

| - | 0

| | 0:

w = 5×20

5×20 = 100:

Answer: w = 100

___________________________________________________

5. Solve for a:

a/14 = 6.8

Multiply both sides of a/14 = 6.8 by 14:

(14 a)/14 = 14×6.8

(14 a)/14 = 14/14×a = a:

a = 14×6.8

14×6.8 = 95.2:

Answer:  a = 95.2

Solve the system of equations for x and y.<br> y = x + 5<br> y = 2x + 2
DIA [1.3K]
Answer (x,y) (3, -2)

Explanation:
using the
substitution method
y
=
x
−
5
→
(
1
)
y
=
−
2
x
+
4
→
(
2
)
since both equations are expressed in terms of x we

can equate them
⇒
x
−
5
=
−
2
x
+
4
add 2x to both sides
2
x
+
x
−
5
=
−
2
x
+
2
x
+
4
⇒
3
x
−
5
=
4
add 5 from both sides
3
x
+
5
−
5
=
4
+
5
⇒
3
x
=
9
divide both sides by 3
3
x
3
=
9
3
⇒
x
=
3
substitute this value in
(
1
)
y
=
3
−
5
=
−
2
As a check
substitute these values into
(
2
)
right
=
−
6
+
4
=
−
2
=
left
⇒

Why do equivalent ratios form a straight line when graphed? Explain​
Anna [14]

Answer:

The y-values of equivalent ratios increase at the same rate as their x-values. The vertical distance between points is constant, and the horizontal distance between points is constant. This forms a straight line.
