it could be 2.2 because every 5 you get 2 so it would be 10 and 4 so when y=6 then x should be 2.2.

Answer:

y = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y is directly proportional to x then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of proportionality.

To find k use the condition y = 5 when x = 2

k = \frac{y}{x} = \frac{5}{2} = 2.5, thus

y = 2.5x ← equation of proportionality

When x = 6, then

y = 2.5 × 6 = 15

Work out the area of a rectangle with base, b = 32mm and perimeter, P = 82mm.​
Amanda [17]
Perimeter = 2base + 2base
82 - 2(32) = 18 : 2 = 9
area = 9*32 = 288mm^2

I'm terrible at math, so I'm sorry if I'm totally wrong, but I'm assuming you just take the average:

20+28=48m
48/2=24m

On average, it may take them 24m if they work together.

I need help with these
IrinaVladis [17]
Let x be the number.
"twelve decreased by twice a number" ---> 12 - 2x
"8 times the sum of number and 4" ---> 8(x + 4)
12 - 2x = 8(x + 4)
12 - 2x = 8x + 32 (distributive property)
12 = 10x + 32 (add 2x to both sides)
-20 = 10x (subtract 32 from both sides)
x = -2 (divide both sides by 10)
