Answer:

y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

When y is directly proportional to x,

= y ∝ x

= y = kx

Finding k

the value of y = -2 when x = 4

-2 = k4

k = -2/4

k = -1/2

. What is the value of y when x = 8

Finding y

y = kx

y = -1/2 × 8

y = -4

-5/4-(-1/6) help please

tiny-mole [99]

A way to add fractions that always works is to multiply each numerator by the denominator of the other, then express the sum of products over the product of the denominators.
$\dfrac{a}{b}+\dfrac{c}{d}=\dfrac{a}{b}\cdot\dfrac{d}{d}+\dfrac{c}{d}\cdot\dfrac{b}{b}\\\\=\dfrac{ad+bc}{bd}$

Here, you have
$\dfrac{-5}{4}-\dfrac{-1}{6}=\dfrac{-5\cdot6-(-1)\cdot4}{4\cdot6}=\dfrac{-26}{24}\\\\=\dfrac{-13}{12}=-1\frac{1}{12}$

The sum is -1 1/12

BabaBlast [244]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

When trying to figure this out, we know that the numbers have to be one after the other, like 1, 2, 3, 4, or 55. 56, 57, 58. The last digit in the numbers also have to add to 6.

The answer is:

100 + 101 + 102 + 103

It adds up to 406, and the integers are consecutive.
