If y varies directly as x and y =2 when x = 10, find y when x = 22 ? Step by step work please

Answer: k=-\frac{1}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You kwnow that x and y vary directly, therefore, the expression has the following form:

y=kx

Where k is the constant of variation.

2. You have that x=6 and y=-\frac{2}{3}, so, if you substitute these values and then you solve for the constant of variation, you obtain the following result:

k=\frac{y}{x}\\k=\frac{-\frac{2}{3}}{6}\\k=-\frac{1}{9}

3. The answer is the first option.

For which intervals is the function decreasing?
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

The function is decreasing in the following intervals

A. (0, 1)

C. (2, pi)

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question, imagine that you draw lines of slope m parallel to the function shown at each point.

-If the slope of this line parallel to the function is negative for those points then the function is decreasing.

-If the slope of this line parallel to the function is positive for those points then the function is increasing.

Observe in the lines drawn in the attached image. You can see that they have slope less than zero in the following interval:

(0, 1) U (2, pi)

Therefore the correct option is:

A. (0, 1)

C. (2, pi)

Kevin is 3 years older than daniel. Two years ago, Kevin was 4 times as old as Daniel. Let k be Kevin’s age and let d be Daniels
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

Daniel (now) is 3 years old,  (2 years ago) is 1 year old.

Kevin (now) is 6 years old,   (2 years ago) is 4 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Now:

-Kevin: k = d + 3

-Daniel: d

2 years ago:

-Kevin: k - 2 = 4(d - 2)

-Daniel: d - 2

We have the equation:

(k - 2) + 2 = k

4(d - 2) + 2 =  d + 3

4d - 8 + 2 = d + 3

3d - 6 = 3

3d = 9

d = 3

k = d + 3 = 3 + 3 = 6

4.One attorney claims that more than 25% of all the lawyers in Boston advertise for their business. A sample of 200 lawyers in B
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

z=\frac{0.315 -0.25}{\sqrt{\frac{0.25(1-0.25)}{200}}}=2.123  

p_v =P(Z>2.123)=0.0169  

The p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we have p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of lawyers had used some form of advertising for their business is significantly higher than 0.25 or 25% .  

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation  

n=200 represent the random sample taken

X=63 represent the lawyers had used some form of advertising for their business

\hat p=\frac{63}{200}=0.315 estimated proportion of lawyers had used some form of advertising for their business

p_o=0.25 is the value that we want to test

\alpha=0.05 represent the significance level

Confidence=95% or 0.95

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

p_v represent the p value (variable of interest)  

2) Concepts and formulas to use  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that more than 25% of all the lawyers in Boston advertise for their business:  

Null hypothesis:p\leq 0.25  

Alternative hypothesis:p > 0.25  

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statistic, and the is given by:  

z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}} (1)  

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion \hat p is significantly different from a hypothesized value p_o.

3) Calculate the statistic  

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:  

z=\frac{0.315 -0.25}{\sqrt{\frac{0.25(1-0.25)}{200}}}=2.123  

4) Statistical decision  

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.  

The significance level provided \alpha=0.05. The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.  

Since is a right tailed test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(Z>2.123)=0.0169  

The p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we have p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of lawyers had used some form of advertising for their business is significantly higher than 0.25 or 25% .

The height of a triangle is 2 less than 5 times its base. If the base of the triangle is x feet, and the area of the triangle is
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

A. 5x^2 − 2x − 24 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

height = 5b-2

b =x

We can rewrite the height as

h = 5x-2

We know the formula for area of a triangle

A = 1/2 bh

A =1/2 x * (5x-2)

Distributing the x

A=    1/2 (5x^2 - 2x)

We know A =12

12 = 1/2 (5x^2 - 2x)

Multiply each side by 2

12*2 = 2*1/2 (5x^2 - 2x)

24 = 5x^2 - 2x

Subtract 24 from each side

24-24 = 5x^2 - 2x-24

0 = 5x^2 - 2x-24
