Answer:

k is 2/3 and y is -1/3 when x is -0.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The direct variation relationship is y = kx, where k is the const. of var.

Subbing 3 for x and 2 for y, 2 = 3k, or k = 2/3.

Now, if x = -0.5, y = (2/3)(-1/2) = -1/3

k is 2/3 and y is -1/3 when x is -0.5.

Y = 0.012x + 57,000

12% translates to 0.012. That number is in front of the x because it changes yearly.

The 57,000 is added afterwards (b) because it was there from the beginning

What is the effect on the graph of f(x) = 1 when it is transformed to
ivann1987 [24]

Answer: C) Shifted 16 units down

The minus 16 at the end is directly the reason why. Think of y = 1/x, and subtracting 16 from both sides to get y-16 = (1/x) - 16. The y-16 will shift every point down 16 units. For instance, the point (1, 1) moves to (1, -15).

Solve the following inequality.<br> -4(1 - 5a) &gt; -124
NemiM [27]

Answer:

a>−6

Step-by-step explanation:

−4(1−5a)>−124

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the inequality.

20a−4>−124

Step 2: Add 4 to both sides.

20a−4+4>−124+4

20a>−120

Step 3: Divide both sides by 20.

20a/20> −120/20

a>−6

xenn [34]
Angle A is 29 and Angle B is 61. It’s problem can be solved by written the equation X+X+32=90. This becomes 2X+32=90 subtract 32 from each side making 2X=58 divide by 2 X=29 and just plug x in to solve for both angle names.
