z varies jointly with x and y. When x = 2 and y = 3, z = 60. What is the value of z when x = 4 and y = 9?

2 x 3 = 6 x 10 = 60
Assuming that you are using the same rule:
4 x 9 x 10 = 360
The value of z when x = 4 and y = 9 is 360. Hope this helped!

When it says z varies jointly, it means z=kxy where k is constant.
x*y=6
60=k*6
k=10

Now plug in the new given values for x and y
z=10*4*9
z=40*9
z=360

Final answer: 360

Easy first cover kilograms into grams 1kg=1000g. resulting in 10,000g dividing that by the weight of the oranges getting 10,000/200=50 so the answer is 50 oranges. (assuming they all weigh the same)

Please help me graph and find the slope. I need an answer ASAP will mark brainliest!

Xelga [282]

Answer:

y = 0.6x

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope Formula: $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

Step 1: Find slope m

m = (1.2 - 0)/(2 - 0)

m = 1.2/2

m = 0.6

y = 0.6x

Step 2: Find y-intercept b

(0, 0) is y-int

Equation is y = 0.6x

Step 3: Graph

Use point (-5, -3) and (0, 0) to graph
