First, multiply by 3 on both sides:

Divide by 7:

So,
k = 9
Answer:
3872/(x^2 - 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify the following:
(16^3 - 3^2 - 5×43)/(x^2 - 2)
3^2 = 9:
(16^3 - 9 - 5×43)/(x^2 - 2)
16^3 = 16×16^2:
(16×16^2 - 9 - 5×43)/(x^2 - 2)
| 1 | 6
× | 1 | 6
| 9 | 6
1 | 6 | 0
2 | 5 | 6:
(16×256 - 9 - 5×43)/(x^2 - 2)
16×256 = 4096:
(4096 - 9 - 5×43)/(x^2 - 2)
43 (-5) = -215:
(4096 - 9 + -215)/(x^2 - 2)
4096 - 9 - 215 = 3872:
Answer: 3872/(x^2 - 2)
Answer:
y = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Direct variation means y will change by the same factor x does. When x changes by a factor of 15/10 = 1.5, the value of y will change by that same factor
x = 10, y = 12
x= 15, y = 1.5×12 = 18
The new value of y is y = 18.
_____
Written as a proportion, you have ...
y/15 = 12/10
y = 15×12/10 = 18
__
Written as a direct variation equation, you have ...
y = kx
12 = k·10 ⇒ k = 1.2
y = 1.2·15 = 18 . . . . for x=15
