What is the value of 30-2(7+2)-1

1 answer:

7 0

First follow the order of operations so do the parentheses first.
30-2(7+2)-1
30-2(9)-1
Then multiplication
30-18-1
Then left to right
12-1
Then again
So your answer is 11

Hope that helps. Feel free to ask any questions.

Consider the equality xy k. Write the following inverse proportion: y is inversely proportional to x. When y = 12, x=5.

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

$y=\dfrac {60} {x}$ or $xy=60$ (depending on your teacher's format preference)

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3><u>Proportionality background</u></h3>

Proportionality is sometimes called "variation". (ex. " 'y' varies inversely as 'x' ")

There are two main types of proportionality/variation:

Direct
Inverse.

Every proportionality, regardless of whether it is direct or inverse, will have a constant of proportionality (I'm going to call it "k").

Below are several different examples of both types of proportionality, and how they might be stated in words:

$y=kx$ y is directly proportional to x
$y=kx^2$ y is directly proportional to x squared
$y=kx^3$ y is directly proportional to x cubed
$y=k\sqrt{x}}$ y is directly proportional to the square root of x
$y=\dfrac {k} {x}$ y is inversely proportional to x
$y=\dfrac {k} {x^2}$ y is inversely proportional to x squared

From these examples, we see that two things:

things that are <u>directly proportional</u> -- the thing is <u>multipli</u>ed to the constant of proportionality "k"
things that are <u>inversely proportional</u> -- the thing is <u>divide</u>d from the constant of proportionality "k".

<h3><u>Looking at our question</u></h3>

In our question, y is inversely proportional to x, so the equation we're looking at is the following $y=\dfrac {k} {x}$ .

It isn't yet clear what the constant of proportionality "k" is for this situation, but we are given enough information to solve for it: "When y=12, x=5."

We can substitute this known relationship pair, and find the "k" that relates this pair of numbers:

<h3><u>Solving for k, and finding the general equation</u></h3>

General Inverse variation equation...

$y=\dfrac {k} {x}$

Substituting known values...

$(12)=\dfrac {k} {(5)}$

Multiplying both sides by 5...

$(12)*5= \left ( \dfrac {k} {5} \right ) *5$

Simplifying/arithmetic...

$60=k$

So, for our situation, k=60. So the inverse proportionality relationship equation for this situation is $y=\dfrac {60} {x}$ .

The way your question is phrased, they may prefer the form: $xy=60$

Help with 9 and 10 please?

JulsSmile [24]

9. Let x equal the number

Two less than a number is

x - 2

Is more than 15 is

> 15

Put them together for

x-2 > 15

Now solve

x-2 > 15
x > 17

10. Let x equal a number

Seven more than a number is

x+ 7

Is less than or equal to 27 is

<= 27

Put them together for

x + 7 <= 27

Now solve

x+ 7 <= 27
x <= 20

The circumference of a circle with a diameter 1.8cm take pie to be 3.142

Gennadij [26K]

The formula to get the circumference is 2πr, π being pi and r being your radius.

Your r is 0.9 since the radius is half the diameter.

2πr = 2 x 3.142 x 0.9

= 5.6556cm

≈ 5.7cm
