A direct variation has a constant slope, i.e. (y/x)= constant.
Both of the given two points give a slope of (y/x)=14/2=28/4=7, so the equation of the function is
y/x=7, or simply
y=7x
Answer:
that is 149.129 miles (thats the answer)
The choices are <span><span> A. r= 200 over w; r = 40 B. r = 200 over w; C. r = 1000
C. r = 2w; r = 10 D. r = 2w; r = 2.5. T</span>he situation</span> implies that the number of roses is inversely proportional to the number of weeds. In this case, the answer is either a or b. Given 5 weeds,the one that fits is A. <span>A. r= 200 over w; r = 40. </span>
The television set has a rectangular shape. The diagonal of this rectangle along with its width and length together form a right angular triangle.
This means that we can apply the Pythagorean theorem which states that:
(diagonal)^2 = (length)^2 + (width)^2
Let the width be w. We know that the length is 0.75 times the width, this means that: length = 0.75 w
Substitute in the above equation:
(20)^2 = (0.75w)^2 + (w)^2
400 = 0.5625 w^2 + w^2
400 = 1.5625 w^2
w^2 = 256
w = 16
This means that the width of the screen is 16 in.
For this problem we can represent the situation as a rectangle triangle.
x: depth of water.
40: Base. "Antonio pulls the lily to one side, keeping the stem straight, until the blossom touches the water at a spot"
x + 8: Hypotenuse. "He notices water lily sticking straight up from the water, whose blossom is 8 cm above the water's surface." Antonio pulls the lily to one side, keeping the stem straight, until the blossom touches the water at a spot".
By the Pythagorean theorem we have:
x ^ 2 + 40 ^ 2 = (x + 8) ^ 2
Clearing x:
x ^ 2 + 1600 = x ^ 2 + 16x + 64
x ^ 2 - x ^ 2 = 16x + 64 - 1600
0 = 16x -1536
1536 = 16x
1536/16 = x
x = 96
answer:
1) x ^ 2 + 40 ^ 2 = (x + 8) ^ 2
2) the depth of the water is
x = 96
