Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be number

Multiply by 2 = x * 2

Now, divide by 3 = 2x ÷ 3 = $\frac{2x}{3}$

So, this is same as multiplying 'x' by $\frac{2}{3}$

Graph this equation on the coordinate plane.

Liula [17]

Select any two x and plug it into the equation to get the corresponding y:

I’ll do 1 and 2 for example.
x = 1
y = -2(1) + 4
y = -2 + 4
y = 2

So we have the point (1, 2)

x = 2
y = -2(2) + 4
y = -4 + 4
y = 0
We have the point (0, 2)

Plot (1, 2) and (0, 2) and draw the line that goes through both.

Help me about this integral

NemiM [27]

The gradient theorem applies here, because we can find a scalar function f for which ∇ f (or the gradient of f ) is equal to the underlying vector field:

$\nabla f(x,y,z)=\langle2xy,x^2-z^2,-2yz\rangle$
