Answer: 2 Dogs
Step-by-step explanation: The other dog never left the park
This is a difference of squares problem. You just have to make sure every term is a perfect square and that there is subtraction in the problem.
Answer:
(a) x = -2y
(c) 3x - 2y = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
You can tell if an equation is a direct variation equation if it can be written in the format y = kx.
Note that there is no addition and subtraction in this equation.
Let's put these equations in the form y = kx.
(a) x = -2y
- y = x/-2 → y = -1/2x
- This is equivalent to multiplying x by -1/2, so this is an example of direct variation.
(b) x + 2y = 12
- 2y = 12 - x
- y = 6 - 1/2x
- This is not in the form y = kx since we are adding 6 to -1/2x. Therefore, this is <u>NOT</u> an example of direct variation.
(c) 3x - 2y = 0
- -2y = -3x
- y = 3/2x
- This follows the format of y = kx, so it is an example of direct variation.
(d) 5x² + y = 0
- y = -5x²
- This is not in the form of y = kx, so it is <u>NOT</u> an example of direct variation.
(e) y = 0.3x + 1.6
- 1.6 is being added to 0.3x, so it is <u>NOT</u> an example of direct variation.
(f) y - 2 = x
- y = x + 2
- 2 is being added to x, so it is <u>NOT</u> an example of direct variation.
The following equations are examples of direct variation:
Answer:
12.6
Step-by-step explanation:
The two left sides have lengths, so this allows you to establish the ratio of the lengths of the sides of the triangles,
left triangle : right triangle
ratio = 25 : 17.5
The bottom sides are also in the same ratio.
ratio = 18 : w
Write a proportion by setting the ratios equal and solve for w.
25/17.5 = 18/w
Cross multiply.
25w = 17.5 * 18
25w = 315
w = 12.6
Answer: 12.6
