Inequality solutions:

x≥ - $\frac{17}{12}$

x≥ -1 $\frac{5}{12}$

x≥ (aprox) 1.41667

Graph: In attachment~

Note that it is a shaded (closed) circle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one: Divide both sides by -12.

$-12x\leq 17\\$

÷-12 ÷-12

$\frac{17}{12}$

Hope this is the answer you were looking for!~

Which table shows a proportional relationship between x and y?

Semenov [28]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

A proportional relationship is a relationship which crosses through the origin (0,0) and which has a proportional constant. We can determine this either by finding (0,0) where x=0 and y=0 in the table or by dividing y/x. None of the tables contain (0,0) so we will divide y by x. We are looking for a table which when each y is divided by its x we have the same constant appearing.

<u>Table A</u>

$\frac{12}{3} \neq \frac{15}{6} \neq \frac{18}{8} \neq \frac{20}{10}$

These fractions are not equal. This is not proportional.

<u>Table B</u>

$\frac{0.5}{1}=\frac{1}{2} =\frac{3.5}{7} =\frac{4}{8}$

These fractions are equal and each shows the numerator to be half of the denominator. This is proportional.

<u>Table C</u>

$\frac{1}{3}\neq \frac{2.5}{7.5} \neq \frac{4}{15} \neq \frac{6}{20}$

These fractions are not equal. This is not proportional.

<u>Table D</u>

$\frac{7}{2} \neq \frac{9}{3}\neq \frac{11}{4} \neq \frac{13}{5}$

These fractions are not equal. This is not proportional.

Solve the equation. Use a calculator. c3 = 4 (Round to the nearest tenth as needed.)

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

To isolate the variable you would divide both sides of the equation by 3, resulting in the equation to answer c = 4/3 or c = 1.3

X/4 = 3/8 solve for x

Andrei [34K]

The ratio of 4 to 8 simplifies to 1:2. X will therefore be 3/2, as 3/2:3 simplifies to 1/2 (3 = 6/2).

The conversion of square feet to square yards can be represented by direct variation. Three square yards are

grandymaker [24]

<h3>The constant of variation is $\frac{1}{9}$ </h3><h3>The equation is $y=\frac{1}{9}x$ </h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

The conversion of square feet to square yards can be represented by direct variation

Let y represent the number of square yards

Let x be the number of square feet

$y \propto x$

y = kx ------ eqn 1

Where, "k" is the constant of variation

Three square yards are equivalent to 27 square feet

Substitute, y = 3 and x = 27 in eqn 1

$3 = k \times 27\\\\k = \frac{3}{27}\\\\k = \frac{1}{9}$

Thus the constant of variation is $\frac{1}{9}$

<em><u>What is the equation representing the direct variation?</u></em>

Substitute k = 1/9 in eqn 1

$y = \frac{1}{9}x$

Thus the equation is found
