"y varies directly as x" means y = kx
you do not know what k is yet, other than that it is some constant number.
Now plug in the given values, y=12 when x=4, in the equation
12 = 4k
=> k = 3
Now rewrite the equation with the k value you just found
y = 3k
Substitute 18 in place of x
y = 3(18)
y = 54
2x*2 + 6x + 80
First we have to use distribution property
2(x*2 + 3x + 40)=0
Divide 2 to both sides
X*2 + 3x + 40=0
Multiply -1
-x*2 -3x-40=0
Add two numbers to get 3x
Multiply same two numbers that you add to get 40x*2
Add
-8x+5x= -3x
Multiply
-8x . 5x= -40x*2
-x*2-8x+5x-40
(X*2-8x) + (5x-40)
X(x-8)+ 5(X-8)
Common factor
(X-8)(x+5)
This would help you!
Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
For this question, you can use power of a point, more specifically when two secants intersect in the interior of a circle. From this, you get the equation:
(7 + x)(12) = (10)(2x + 2)
You can simplify and solve:
84 + 12x = 20x + 20
84 = 8x + 20
64 = 8x
x = 8
