If y=-16 when x=4 find x when y=48

Mathematics
1 answer:
MatroZZZ [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x= -12

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this is a direct variation

y = kx

When y = -16 x =4  we can find k

-16 = k*4

Divide each side by 4

-16/4 = 4k/4

-4 =k

So

y = -4k

Y = 48

48 = -4x

Divide each side by -4

48/-4 = -4x/-4

-12 =x

A water tank is 1/8 full the tank is 3/4 full when 42 gallons are added to the tank how much water was originally in the tank
masha68 [24]
<span>A water tank is 1/8 full. The tank is 3/4 full when 42 gallons are added to the tank. How much water was originally in the tank? (I rewrote it, your wording was messed up)

3/4 = 6/8 
1/8 + 6/8 = 7/8 = 42 gallons
42 divided by 8 = 5 1/4

So, the answer is 5 1/4. The tank originally 5.25 gallons of water.</span>

Your typical markup for merchandise is 40%. your cost on an item is $8.00. calculate the selling price.
adoni [48]
The selling price would be $11.20.

40% = 40/100 = 0.4

The mark up is 40% of the cost; this means 40% of 8:

40% of 8 = 0.4(8) = 3.20
8 + 3.20 = 11.20

Use the indicated properties of realnumbers to complete the blanks of the following statements.
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

13. 50+43=43+50

14. 5+(7+6)=(5+7)+6

15.  -15+0=0-15=-15

16.  \frac{3}{4}*\frac{4}{3}=1

17. 25*4=4*25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "a", "b", and "c" real numbers.

- Commutative Property of Addition states that:

 a+b=b+a

- Associative Property of Addition states that:

(a+b)+c=a+(b+c)

- Additive Identity Property states that:

a+0=0+a=a 

- Commutative Property of Multiplication states that:

a*b=b*a

- Multiplicative Inverse Property states that:

a*\frac{1}{a}=1    (a\neq 0)

Knowing these properties, we can solve the exercise:

13. By the Commutative Property of Addition:

50+43=43+50

14. By the Associative Property of Addition:

5+(7+6)=(5+7)+6

15. By the Additive Identity Property:

-15+0=0-15=-15

16. By the Multiplicative Inverse Property:

\frac{3}{4}*\frac{4}{3}=1

17. By the Commutative Property of Multiplication:

25*4=4*25
