Find the constant of variation k for the direct variation. 4x = -6y

Mathematics
1 answer:
ValentinkaMS [17]3 years ago
3 0

k = - \frac{2}{3} → A

the equation for direct variation is y = kx ( k is the constant of variation )

thus k = \frac{y}{x}

given - 6y = 4x is a direct variation equation then

k = \frac{4}{- 6} = - \frac{2}{3}


k =

6x + 11 = 21<br> Help I’m on a quiz and this question is so confusing
Westkost [7]

Answer:

Step by Step Solution

Rearrange:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                    6*x+11-(21)=0  

Step by step solution :

STEP

1

:

Pulling out like terms

1.1     Pull out like factors :

  6x - 10  =   2 • (3x - 5)  

Equation at the end of step

:

STEP

2

:

Equations which are never true:

2.1      Solve :    2   =  0

This equation has no solution.

A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

2.2      Solve  :    3x-5 = 0  

Add  5  to both sides of the equation :  

                     3x = 5

Divide both sides of the equation by 3:

                    x = 5/3 = 1.667

One solution was found :

x = 5/3 = 1.667

One step inequalities.... 9x&lt;18<br> how to solve
Nuetrik [128]
So 9x<18 can be factored out into 
9(x)<9(2)
you can divide both sides by 9
x<2 

so the solution is any number more than 2, but not 2

Ede4ka [16]

True, but not many. Insurance companies typically have a cap off so the client doesn't go in let's say every week for a check up to see if they grew an inch. This is form personal experience in reading into the fine print.
