Does the equation represent a direct variation? If so, find the constant of variation.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Nezavi [6.7K]3 years ago

We are given the equation that represents a direct variation 2x - 4y = 0 .

<em>We know direct variation equation y = k x.</em>

Where x is the constant of variation.

In order to find if given equation is really a direct variation, we need to solve it for y.

2x - 4y = 0

Subtracting 2x from both sides, we get

-4y = -2x.

Dividing both sides by 4, we get

y = 1/2 x.

On comparing with direct variation equation y = k x. We can see that y = 1/2 x is also a direct variation equation.

And k = 1/2.

<h3>Therefore, correct option is A. Yes; k = 1/2.</h3>

Log (3x+1) - Log (2x+5)= 1​
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

\huge \red { \boxed{x =  -  \frac{49}{17}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

log(3x + 1) - log(2x + 5) = 1 \\  \\ log  \: \frac{3x + 1}{2x + 5}  = log \: 10..( \because \: log \: 10 = 1) \\  \\  \frac{3x + 1}{2x + 5}  = 10 \\ \\  3x + 1 = 20x + 50 \\ 3x - 20x = 50 - 1 \\  \\  - 17x = 49 \\  \\ x =  \frac{49}{ - 17}  \\  \\  \huge \purple{ \boxed{x =  -  \frac{49}{17}}}  \\

2) Find the probability of rolling a 2 or smaller.
Mamont248 [21]

There are 6 numbers in one die.

There are 2 numbers that are less than or equal to 2, they are 1 and 2

The probability of something happening is the number of chances / total number

The probability would be 2/6, which can be reduced to 1/3
