A constant of variation is only in the form ay=bx where b/a=constant so given any point y/x=constant let us check here by substituting x=1 and x=2
when x=1---> 2y=14,y=7 here y/x=7
when x=2--->2y=19,y=9.5 here y/x=4.75
so this equation is not constant of variation
let us check an equation of the form 3y=7x
when x=1--->y=7/3--->y/x=7/3
when x=2--->y=14/3---->y/x=7/3
so 3y=7x is a constant of variation

How many times does the graph of 4x = 32 - x2 cross the x-axis?
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

The graph crosses the x-axis 2 times

The solutions are  x = -8  &  x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Qaudratics are in the form ax^2 + bx+ c

Where a, b, c are constants

Now, let's arrange this equation in this form:

4x=32-x^2\\x^2+4x-32=0

Where

a = 1

b = 4

c = -32

We need to know the discriminant to know nature of roots. The discriminant is:

D=b^2-4ac

If

  • D = 0 , we have 2 similar root and there is 2 solutions and that touches the x-axis
  • D > 0,  we have 2 distinct roots/solutions and both cut the x-axis
  • D < 0,  we have imaginary roots and it never cuts the x-axis

Let's find value of Discriminant:

D=b^2-4ac\\D=(4)^2 -4(1)(-32)\\D=144

Certainly D > 0, so there are 2 distinct roots and cuts the x-axis twice.

We get the roots/solutions by factoring:

x^2+4x-32=0\\(x+8)(x-4)=0\\x=4,-8

Thus,

The graph crosses the x-axis 2 times

The solutions are  x = -8  &  x = 4

The diagonals of a rhombus intersect at the point (0,4). If one endpoint of the longer diagonal is located at point (4,10), wher
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

The other endpoint is located at (-4,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other

That means-----> The diagonals of a rhombus intersect at the midpoint of each diagonal

so

The point (0,4) is the midpoint of the two diagonals

The formula to calculate the midpoint between two points is equal to

M=(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\frac{y_1+y_2}{2})

we have

M=(0,4)

(x_1,y_1)=(4,10)

substitute

(0,4)=(\frac{4+x_2}{2},\frac{10+y_2}{2})

<em>Find the x-coordinate x_2 of the other endpoint</em>

0=\frac{4+x_2}{2}

x_2=-4

<em>Find the y-coordinate y_2 of the other endpoint</em>

4=\frac{10+y_2}{2}

8=10+y_2

y_2=-2

therefore

The other endpoint is located at (-4,-2)
