Answer:

x = 13.5

Step-by-step explanation:

direct variation

y = kx

substitute x and y to find k

8 = k*6

divide by 6

8/6 =k

4/3 = k

y = 4/3 x

now put in y =18

18 = 4/3 x

multiply by 3/4

18 * 3/4 = 3/4 * 4/3 x

54/4 = x

change to a decimal

13.5 =x

3 / m + 4 - 4 / m = 6 (i) Show that this equation can be written as 6m^2 + 25m+16= 0

Answer:

Proved Below

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf \frac{3}{m+4} - \frac{4}{m} = 6\\LCM = m(m+4)\\Multiplying \ both \ sides \ by\ m(m+4)\\3m - 4(m+4) = 6m(m+4)\\3m-4m-16 = 6m^2+24m\\-m-16 = 6m^2+24m\\Adding\ m\ to\ both\ sides\\-16 = 6m^2+24m+m\\-16 = 6m^2+25m\\Adding \ 16 \ to \ both \ sides\\0 = 6m^2+25m+16\\OR\\6m^2+25m+16 = 0$
