Answer:

Option B is correct.

direct variation; k = 5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The Direct variation says:

y \propto x

then the equation is of the form: y = kx   ......[1] where k is the constant of variation.

From the given table:

Consider x = -2 and y = -5

Substitute these in [1] to solve for k;

-5 = -2k

or

5 = 2k

Divide both sides by 2 we get;

k = \frac{5}{2}

⇒ the equation becomes: y = \frac{5}{2}x

Check:

Take x = 4 and y = 10;

y = \frac{5}{2}x

10 = \frac{5}{2} \times 4

10 = 5 \times 2

10 = 10  True

Therefore, the direct variation ; k = \frac{5}{2} best describe the function represented by the table

Please help I can’t figure this out!
Monica [59]

Explanation:

All values in the x-column get filled with -2.

The graph is the vertical line, x = -2.

__

You are told x=-2. There is nothing to figure out. The value of y is irrelevant.

That equation describes a vertical line. The points on the line have x-coordinate -2, and any (every) y-coordinate.

Given: BDis a diameter<br> m 1 = 100°<br> m BC= 30°<br><br> m2 =<br><br> 30<br> 80<br> 100
skad [1K]

Answer:

∠2 = 80°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since BD is a diameter then

∠1 + ∠2 = 180°, that is

100° + ∠2 = 180° ( subtract 100° from both sides )

∠2 = 180° - 100° = 80°

Last year, Edward spent a total of $626.14 on his power bill. Rounding the total bill to the nearest tens place, approximate how
zlopas [31]

Answer:

He spent around  $ 52.17  in each month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Last year the power bill price = $ 626.14 ≈  $ 626

We know that in a year 12 months. so power bill of each month in last year is calculated as follows

Power \ bill \ of \ each \ month = \frac{Total \ bill \ of  \ the \ year}{12}

Power \ bill \ of \ each \ month = \frac{626}{12}

Power \ bill \ of \ each \ month =  $ 52.17

Therefore he spent around  $ 52.17  in each month.
