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

Mathematics
1 answer:
saveliy_v [14]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Variation constant = -(\frac{5}{3})

Step-by-step explanation:

If two variables x and y represent a direct variation then they will have the relation as y = kx

Here k is the constant of variation.

Since the given equation that represent a direct variation is 5x = -3y

3y = -5x

y=(-\frac{5}{3})x

If we compare this equation with y = kx then we find k=(-\frac{5}{3})

Therefore constant of variation is -(\frac{5}{3})

A student concludes that for all values of x,x^2+x+1 produces a prime number. Which value of x serves as counterexample to prove
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

j

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute the given values into x² + x + 1 and check if result is prime

x = - 4

(- 4)² - 4 + 1 = 16 - 4 + 1 = 13 ← prime

(- 2)² - 2 + 1 = 4 - 2 + 1 = 3 ← prime

(- 3)² - 3 + 1 = 9 - 3 + 1 = 7 ← prime

4² + 4 + 1 = 16 + 4 + 1 = 21 ← not prime

x = 4 serves as a counterexample to disprove this conclusion
