Answer:

22.5

Step-by-step explanation:

SINCE Y VARIES DIRECTLY WITH X, WE USE THE FORMULA

y=kx; k representing the variable change, y= 7.5, x=5

> y=kx

>7.5= k(5) > 7.5= 5k

>k= 7.5/5    (divide to get the k)

k= 1.5

NOW REPLACE THE NEW VALUES OF X AND K AS THE VARIABLE CHANGE, TO FIND THE VALUE OF Y

>y=kx       ; k=1.5 and x=15    y=?

>y= (1.5)(15)

>y=22.5

the value of y is 22.5 when x is 15

If x is a rational number and y is the opposite of x, why do x and y have the same absolute value
grin007 [14]

Answer:

Absolute value is the distance away from zero, so if x is a rational number and y is opposite, they would both be the same distance away from zero, regardless of their sign.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Absolute value is the distance of a number away from zero.  For example, if x is equal to the rational number -2, the absolute value of -2 is just 2, given that both 2 and -2 are only a distance of 2 away from the number zero.  Think of it as your walk or drive to school.  If you live 4 miles from school, you drive a distance of 4 miles there and 4 miles back.  That distance is not calculated as a positive 4 miles there and a negative 4 miles back, but rather just 4 miles there and 4 miles back, for a total distance of 8 miles.  So, if x=4 and y=(-4), the absolute value of both would be 4.

Using the change-of-base formula, which of the following is equivalent to the
Otrada [13]

Given:

The logarithmic expression is:

\log_718

To find:

The equivalent expression of given expression by using change-of-base formula.

Solution:

The change-of-base formula is:

\log_ba=\dfrac{\log_ca}{\log_cb}

The given expression is:

\log_718

Using the change-of-base formula, we get

\log_718=\dfrac{\log_c18}{\log_c7}

Where, is a constant and c>0.

Let c=10, then

\log_718=\dfrac{\log_{10}18}{\log_{10}7}

Therefore, the correct option is a.
