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

A landscaper is selecting two trees to plant. He has five to choose from. Three of the five are deciduous and two are evergreen.
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

The probability that he chooses trees of two different types is 30%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a landscaper is selecting two trees to plant, and he has five to choose from, of which three of the five are deciduous and two are evergreen, to determine what is the probability that he chooses trees of two different types must be performed the following calculation:

3/5 x 2/4 = 0.3

2/5 x 3/4 = 0.3

Therefore, the probability that he chooses trees of two different types is 30%.

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (-9, -8) and (–6,6).
sveta [45]

Answer:

Slope - intercept form    y = \frac{14}{3} x  + 34

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Explanation:-</em></u>

Given points are ( -9 ,-8 ) and (-6,6)

slope of given two points

    m = \frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1}  } = \frac{6-(-8)}{-6-(-9)} = \frac{14}{3}

The equation of the straight line passing through the points and having slope

          y - y_{1} = m ( x - x_{1} )

        y - (-8) = \frac{14}{3}  ( x - (-9) )

          3 y + 2 4 = 14 x + 126

           3 y = 14 x + 126 - 24

          3 y = 14 x + 102

            y = \frac{14}{3} + \frac{102}{3}

           y = \frac{14}{3} x  + 34

Slope - intercept form  y= mx +C

Slope - intercept form    y = \frac{14}{3} x  + 34

What are the 3 angle measures in the triangle shown below
7nadin3 [17]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  B.  39°, 106°, 43°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of angle measures in a triangle is 180°. Then the sum of angle expressions will be 180.

  (3x +1) +(11x -4) +(5x -7) = 180

  19x -10 = 180 . . . . . collect terms

  19x = 190 . . . . . . . . add 10

  x = 10 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 19

__

Then the three angle measures are ...

  • 3·10 +1 = 31
  • 11·10 -4 = 106
  • 5·10 -7 = 43

The appropriate choice is ...

  B.  31°, 106°, 43°
