Answer:
The first option is not a direct variation
Step-by-step explanation:
When we talk of a direct variation, as one value increases, the other value increases too
Or as one value decreases, the other value decreases
A direct variation is of the form;
y = kx
k = y/x
where k is the coefficient of variation that must be a constant value all through the set of values
The values we are comparing here are the x and y values
So
let us take a look at the options;
The first option is not a direct variation
For the first option, the rate of increase is not constant;
2/6 = 1/3 , 8/12 = 2/3 , 14/18 = 7/9
for the second;
the ratio is 1 to 1
for the third;
3/6 = 1/2 ; 6/12 = 1/2; 9/18 = 1/2
for the fourth;
2/6 = 1/3, 4/12 = 1/3 , 6/18 = 1/3
Hey there!
y = -2x + 19
y = x + 7
We gonna solve this system of equation by using the substitution method.
We wanna solve y = -2x + 19 for y
Let start by substitute -2x + 19 for y in y = x + 7
y = x + 7
-2x + 19 = x + 7
Subtract x from both sides
-2x + 19 - x = x + 7 - x
-3x + 19 = 7
Now subtract 19 on both sides
-3x + 19 - 19 = 7 - 19
-3x = -12
Then divide both sides by -3
-3x/-3 = -12/-3
x = 4
We have the value of x. Now we gonna use that same value to find the value for y.
We gonna do that by substitute 4 for x in y = -2x + 19
y = -2x + 19
y = -2(4) + 19
y = -8 + 19
y = 11
Thus,
The answer is: x = 4 and y = 11
Let me know if you have questions about the answer. As always, it is my pleasure to help students like you!
The probability is 56/100 or 56%. Because they only got 44% of their previous throws, the probability that they'll miss the next one is 56%.
